  • Patent number: 11557444
    Abstract: Key switches of the inventive subject matter are designed to give users the tactile feel of key switches from expensive mechanical keyboards without drawback typically associated with alternative key switches. In some embodiments, key switches described in this application are designed to function with a sheet of membrane switches, while in other embodiments, key switches of the inventive subject matter incorporate optical switching in place of membrane switching. Embodiments for use with membrane switching feature a plunger and rocker combination that prevents the pressure from a user's key press from being directly transferred to a membrane switch, thereby reducing wear and tear. In optical switching embodiments, pressing the key switch causes an actuator, e.g., come between an optical emitter/receiver pair to register a key press.

  • Patent number: 11539661
    Abstract: Methods are taught for creating training data for a learning algorithm, training the learning algorithm with the training data and using the trained learning algorithm to suggest domain names to users. A domain name registrar may store activities of a user on a registrar website. Preferably, domain name searches, selected suggested domain names and domain names registered to the user are stored as the training data in a training database. The training data may be stored so that earlier activities act as inputs to the learning algorithm while later activities are the expected outputs of the learning algorithm. Once trained, the learning algorithm may receive activities of other users and suggest domain names to the other users based on their activities.

  • Publication number: 20220382852
    Abstract: Computing systems of a multi-tenant trusted domain collect metadata describing data stored in data sources of a set of tenant trusted domains. The computing systems of the multi-tenant trusted domain use the metadata to process natural language questions based on data stored in data sources of a tenant trusted domain. The computing systems of the multi-tenant trusted domain identify a set of data sources of the tenant trusted domain that are relevant for processing the natural language question and generate an execution plan for answering the natural language question. The computing systems of the multi-tenant trusted domain send the execution plan to one or more computing systems of the tenant trusted domain. The computing systems of the tenant trusted domain execute the execution plan and send the result of executing the execution plan to a client device that sent the natural language question.
