They can definitely regulate the use of the word fuck in the school or in class, I am fine with that, but I know others that would disagree. You could definitely change the facts just slightly, where a student posts something on social medi

There is validity in the idea that off campus speech on social media can interfere with on campus activities, but I think the slope is far to slippery to allow the government (yes public schools are the government) to extend to all students

But schools are not advertising to the public that they are “buying” the class and no reasonable consumer who pays tuition believes a 1 time payment of tuition permits them to attend the class indefinitely. On the other hand Apple purposefu

The law doesn’t care about the value of a contract, it’s enforceable or it’s not, and I don’t think you have the slightest clue how damaging it would be if I were to sue (again I never I would) and it to come out in discovery that the marke

Sorry you miss your flights a lot, but if I may, imagine you showed up on time and: A) the plane was gone and they explained you bought a ticket with an error in the flight time; or b) they informed you they cancelled your ticket and your

Edit: sorry you were talking about my example and not the domain. Auctions are contracts, in this case the seller (bank) agrees to accept the highest offer at the end of the expiration of the auction. So the terms are of the auction are t

What I’m saying I tested is your theory that you can just ask the marketplace to reverse a transaction on the basis of your listing price being in error. Of course I did that because I had just sold crypto comic book.com on their marketplac

Who is supposed to make that determination? It was below the marketplaces own valuation is that’s not enough and must use an ambiguous word like “grossly” essentially meaning in the sole discretion of the marketplace? In any case it’s nei

No that isn’t what judicial discretion is. In contract law judges are not permitted to unilaterally interject their understanding of a contracting party’s intent and revise the terms of a contract, try looking up the “4 corners of a contra

It can be a defense in the US but not likely the case here, the remedy wouldn’t be specific performance (ie give me the domain) but damages for a fair market value of what I paid for, specific performance is very rare in the US. There woul

Maybe...I tested your theory and asked them to reverse my recent sale of cryptocomicbook.com on the same basis and my request was declined. In either case there is both contract law and state federal law (unfair trade practices) that would

So long as the internet is required to use Bitcoin it’s not exactly as permissionless or decentralized as it’s marketing buzzwords pretend. It is also pretty trivial to fork Bitcoin so there is no more inherent value in Bitcoin vs a clone o

The S-1 will reveal all, a tight integration with Xbox and not a lot of direct revenue may still ultimately result in a sustainable and viable product, once you go public indefinite quarterly losses don’t get saved by the next funding round

A valuation based on metrics more closely tied to reality because the owner would actually focus on the viability and sustainability of the product.

I’d slightly revise your description of the scheme from no business model to a intentional no revenue business model allowing for the valuation speculation to run rampant (i.e. at anytime we could stop investing in our growth, then it’s

I wonder if there might not be something similar to the Prion mechanism that cause the healthy brain protein to “change chiralities” and join the prion group on the atomic level that might give insight into the matter-antimatter asymmetry p

As others have said stock is ownership in a company, whereas cryptocurrency doesn’t represent ownership in anything other than the scheme itself. It takes a hell of a lot for a publicly traded stock to go to $0. The market is manipulated c
