"Court gives permission" are the key words, though. I don't think they get to deface your walls with giant messages spelling out their side of the dispute, and on their own authority. BTW, I don't know why everyone assumes the facts are as

I hate to be a stick in the mud, but you have to ask algorithm questions, and you have to ask them to code an implementation. If you hire a lot of people, that is simply the only way to avoid making (some) horrible hires who later cost you

Oh, they're bad at communication, all right, and not just because of some spelling error. Look at the description of their flagship product: http://www.starling-software.com/en/qam.html What does it do? Who would use it? For what? I have

To the folks at Starling: Do you even realize how obnoxious and full of yourselves you sound?! Let's see: suppose I'm a person who ranks highly on a lot of the lines in your matrix. You expect me to send you a resume (which you say you won'
