It doesn't. The experiment could have been done by the dad and his daughter on their own without a single form. Its when the school and their lawyers get involved. The cynic in me wants to point out that the paperwork…
Maybe it's my white privilege talking, but I don't see the racial angle here. Would "Corporations" be any less inclined to appropriate and profit from the creations of white teens? Would the moral wrong of the taking be…
Because I'm a stubborn ass who'd rather suffer a freeloader than hand in an incomplete assignment. In hindsight, I guess I should have finished the project and explained the division of labor.
Seems like a good a time as any to break out my favorite anti-MBA story. I took a Masters CS class some time ago, and for our final class project, not knowing anyone else in the class, I got lumped in the "leftover"…
It's funny - the only two businesses that have made me use the EMV features on my card are the locally owned butcher shop down the street and Wal-Mart.
I think this was Larry Lessig's position at one point. I think it's a a nice, practical solution that acknowledges that copyright is a political animal - let Disney keep Mickey forever, but the public gets everything of…
Shhhhh... Don't broadcast your flouting of your state's Use Tax like that!
You don't need a lawyer pro-bono, just one on contingency. If you can survive the motion to dismiss at the outset, you've now entered discovery, and BigCo will now start incurring bigtime legal costs. Settlement offers…
Wow. It's no surprise that rms lacks empathy or social grace, but I'm kind of shocked one man's availability could single-handedly delay a release of a project like emacs. What if the poor chap had got hit by a bus?
Nuremburg was an exception to the general rule that you couldn't prosecute soldiers for carrying out the orders of their superiors - establishing that the mass genocide of innocent people crosses a line. However, the…
I wouldn't expect a business school professor, JD or not, to have any clue about state consumer protection law. I would expect an MBA to bluster on in an area in which he was clearly out of his depth.
IAL, and I could imagine this fee getting upheld in at least a few US jurisdictions (with the right judge), leaving consumers to rely solely on the Streisand effect to get satisfaction. The classic notion of a contract…
That's an awful lot of detail from a event with no surviving witnesses.
Sounds promising. Calories in, calories out - the rest is just noise.
Or, what if the interviewer explicitly challenged the interviewee to come up with an interview coding challenge? And perhaps even worked the challenge, with the interviewee hinting, helping, and evaluating? Maybe it…
What would happen if an interviewee 'flipped the script' - gave the interviewer a coding challenge? Maybe under the guise of assessing the skill level of his potential co-workers? Is there any way an interviewer takes…
This has always baffled me. Is coding the only technical skill? It's especially bewildering when a company seeks a software engineer with expertise in a highly technical domain and populates the interview primarily with…
How do you get that doctor's prescription in the US?
What about Nicotine? Back in college and for a few years afterward, I used to put in a big fat dip (or chew) for all/late-nighters to help me buckle down, focus, and stay alert. I stopped for all the standard health…
I feel the same way about ad blockers as I do about skipping commercials with the DVR - my purchasing decisions are almost never influenced by ads, so why would I bother watching them? I'm just afraid that someday, even…
I agree with your first sentence, but not your overall premise. We are all capable of a hell of lot, usually much, much more than we realize, but not everything. I think most of us, myself included, need to take more…
Disappointing. I was hoping for some sort of matrix.
That would be awesome. I just got on a new project a week ago where the PM sent me a link to Zero MQ and basically said "here, read this".
This is one of my largest weaknesses. I haven't come across any good resources for self-study on this topic. I haven't found any online course-type resources, and the books i've found are hard to follow. Any…
Mainstream for the type of lawyers who go to court to collect on judgments? ABA maybe, ATL not so much. Oh wait, discovery after the judgment. Not a separate execution. Yeah, that could be a BigLaw thing.
