"We have no moat, and Congress should give us one by law"
Companies are welcome to stop increasing prices, but I'm not going to fall on my sword re salary negotiation to make a tiny contribution to stopping inflation.
I haven't tried it. The existing app works pretty well for my purposes, but I'll keep this in mind if that changes. I also have a Kindle, and the ReMarkable app is a much easier way to get content onto the device than…
I have one, thus far their cloud service is free and hopefully will continue to be so. Every ReMarkable comes with an 8gb cloud account, which is the same amount of storage on the device. Hopefully this doesn't change,…
This is not how rational basis review works.
"You're not wrong, Walter, you're just an asshole."
Thanks for this, it's really useful.
Net neutrality is more about nondiscrimination in routing content from a provider to a user, rather than forcing content providers to serve everyone regardless of conduct. It's entirely reasonable for a site to…
One thing I really like about audiobooks is that it works really well when trying to get through dense texts. Thanks to audiobooks, I've "read" Capital in the Twenty-First Century, which I attempted in text form but got…
This is the course that set me on the path to my new career from a failed legal career. I can't be thankful enough.
It is exceedingly rare for a fine to be struck down as a violation of the Eighth Amendment. The standard as articulated by Waters-Pierce Oil Co. v. Texas, 212 U.S. 86 (1909) is that the fine must be "so grossly…
I'd be worried that Newton would be spending an even higher percentage of his time on alchemy research than he already did, and using his reputation to push promising scientists to do the same.
Pharmaceutical markets don't exist without government-enforced patent monopolies. The entire market is state-created, so the state should probably regulate that market to maximize benefits to the citizens of that state.
I've given this one a lot of thought. Ordinarily, you're supposed to pay tax on the fair market value of goods and services received in return for your labor in barter transactions. However, East Wind is incorporated as…
I think the court neatly avoided that question by relying on fair use rather than extinguishment of copyright as a basis for allowing the copying of the standards. A "taking" generally requires the government to deprive…
I think this was a tactic by the defenders of IPR, rather than some deeply-held belief. We have at least four self-styled originalists (but see https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1422048) on the Court,…
Interesting proposition. Anything I can read on this further?
I did. I was a shitty lawyer, though. Best decision I ever made.
Based on concepts from "The Dictator's Handbook," this is entirely logical. This 20 minute video opened my eyes to how politics works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rStL7niR7gs
>The Russians can any day drop their margins and put SpaceX out of business. This is an argument I haven't heard before. Any sources I can read up on to learn more?
What do you call a wumao in the U.S.? A fifty-center? Let's just call him a wumao.
I'm really surprised that piracy hasn't been pushing them to more a more reasonable price point, like file sharing did with music. When I went back to school, almost every single one of my textbooks was available in…
"Unfortunately, VMware has explicitly asked for the filings not to be published and, accordingly, Conservancy has not been able to review either document." Anyone more familiar with German law that can explain this to…
If you're going to lawyer up, I'd delete this post. No need to invite counterclaims of defamation (not that they'd necessarily succeed, but no sense in poking the bear). Contact an attorney and follow his/her advice.
I agree with this analysis. You'd need concrete proof of threat. Otherwise, any employer facing an ADA claim based on mental illness could use the excuse "We're afraid he'll murder us all in a depressed rage" to win.…
