First, the name "circuit" comes from the old practice of judges "riding circuit." Their circuit was the geographic territory assigned to them. They'd be responsible for hearing appeals in that limited geographic reg

This ruling is both crazy and par for the course for the 5th Circuit. I live in the 11th Circuit, which is notably nutty, but the 5th Circuit proudly outshines us in the firmament of madness. Here's why the decision is crazy: The panel

I’m picturing you having a slideshow of audit logs that you make guests to your home sit down and watch with you, like the vacation pictures slideshow of old.

However, your policy might also contain (more likely) an arbitration clause, requiring you to submit any dispute to arbitration or (sometimes) a form selection clause, requiring you to submit a dispute in a particular legal forum other than

Came here to say this, glad you beat me to it. Maybe more buttoned-down sub-fields of psych should secede so they don’t have to be associated with the social and evo folks.

Silence is consent. Edit: meaning, Google’s silent lack of correction shows (to me) that they consented to that interpretation.

In fairness, both of those are also surprisingly difficult.

I just feel like maybe 20 years ago people thought the hardware was the hardware and all the security issues were inevitably to be found in software. I mean, I know that people who work with hardware for a living always say that hardware ha

I can’t even blindly follow it. The last two or three times I’ve tried to use Google maps for directions, it has redirected me through walking trails and bike paths. Each time I closed it and just used Apple Maps to get where I needed to go

Nailed it. With a small caveat. It’s more a matter of executive functioning [1], less one of (strictly speaking) motivation (although that is how it often feels, so I understand why that’s used as a kind of shorthand). I can very easily f

This isn’t an appeal. There’s no general ability to submit amicus briefs. Well, there is a way to, but trial courts ignore them (as they should, because this is a case between specific parties, and unless someone has some sort of privity ma

He may be “author, futurist, thinker and systems architect,” but he doesn’t know how law works. He’s citing a prayer for relief against the specific defendants sued. A court doesn’t have power to order relief against a party not before it.

Makes it hard to have any hope for the future of our politics, because this is the case at all levels these days. Everything political is just someone’s money-making scheme at the public’s expense. But hey, “greed is good,” right?

I like the idea that there’s a step missing in between. Like, after high school, you spend a year minimum doing college prep at some sort of extended school. Or you could test out of it and enter college immediately (if, say, you went to a

Our high school system doesn’t prepare students for college at all because the way high school works here (in America) clearly isn’t meant to prepare students for college. You have to go to high school. There are compulsory attendance laws

Engagement is also very environmental, I think, when you’re teaching in middle/high school. Like, is there a schoolwide culture of students engaging in work? Is there an expectation that when you walk into the building you are a studen

Let me respond to a couple of your points, although overall I loved your comment. 1. This is absolutely true. But you can cultivate an environment where students feel safe enough to admit they don’t know. It takes time and effort. It requ

Yeah. People will hate me for using it as an example, but there is such a huge difference between native apps and the gunk we’re fed now. I can vividly remember the first time I used a Mac-assed app on a Mac, and it was remarkable. Like, it
