proprietary technology

Read a random definition: parental-superior-rights doctrine

A quick definition of proprietary technology:

Proprietary technology is a type of knowledge or know-how that belongs to someone and they have to give permission before others can use it for business. It's like a secret recipe or a special way of doing things that gives the owner an advantage over their competitors. It's important to keep it a secret so that others can't copy it and take away the advantage.

A more thorough explanation:

Proprietary technology refers to a body of knowledge or know-how that is owned or controlled by a person or company. This knowledge or know-how is kept confidential to maintain an advantage over competitors. It can include formulas, processes, devices, programs, methods, techniques, or processes that are not generally known or readily ascertainable by others who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use.

For example, a company may have a proprietary technology for a new type of battery that lasts longer than any other battery on the market. This technology is kept secret to maintain a competitive advantage over other battery manufacturers. Another example is a software company that has a proprietary algorithm that makes their software faster and more efficient than their competitors.

These examples illustrate how proprietary technology can give a company a competitive edge in the market. By keeping their technology secret, they can maintain their advantage and continue to innovate and improve their products.

Can anyone explain to me how the automatic status tracker works? Like do I need to enter just my LSAC/LawHub login info, or does it require the specific login portal credentials for each school? Also, how much information will this update? Will it be just the current status, or will it automatically add date applied, completion date, etc.? Thanks in advance!

Good morning

You’re comparing a scholarship offer you don’t have yet to one you do. Why don’t you wait and see what Berkeley offers you before you come to a decision?
12:20
Because I’m stressing over this huge decision and even if they do give me money it’ll be super super expensive
12:33
Okay fair. Then I guess it depends how much you prioritize the specific outcome of unicorn PI vs graduating without an insane amount of debt
12:59
Yeah exactly 😓

If you truly want “unicorn” PI, I would assume that’s not even a real possibility out of UMiami
13:51
I do think people might be using the term unicorn PI too liberally
13:51
Used to mean career outcomes that were pretty much only possible out of HYS and maybe NYU
Some consider Unicorn PI to include things like Asst US Attorney. In that case, you can achieve that by going anywhere that will allow you sit for the bar so long as your grades are strong and your internships and/or clerkships align.

Chowie go to Berk cause that's probably where I end up
16:34
But in all seriousness I would take Miami. If you're 100% committed to PI I don't think the .1% outcome that may be possible from Berk is worth taking on insane debt
has anyone heard back on a saturday or sunday?
and do we think any school would send out decisions on monday (since its presidents day)
