“I was never ruined but twice: once when I lost a lawsuit, and once when I won one.”

― Voltaire

Where US civil litigation (disputes) are concerned, a good lawyer looks to end the dispute before the cost of litigation approaches the value of the dispute. Once might argue the feature and bug of US tort law is the litigation becomes a third party in the case, against whom both sides must fight, hopefully finding a common enemy in its cost. If the cost is not enough to settle the dispute, you can add the unpredictability of judges and juries who on any given day can invert the obvious, wrecking a 'winnable' case.

A great lawyer, as opposed to a good one, keeps your fees down as you heads to trial against an opponent with seemingly unlimited money and appetite for litigation. They accomplish this by focusing on the core dispute and ignoring ancillary matters, often making their client (wrongly) question how committed they are to their case.

In sum, a good lawyer manages their client (always pushing internally for settlement), works to keep fees down until discovery closes, sows doubt in the other's sides confidence, establishes credibility with the Judge, and shows up meticulously prepared for trial.

As a thought exercise, imagine how hard all this is to do when you dislike your client, your managing partner is on you to increase billings, your kids need braces, and you're hoping to save a few bucks for retirement and an escape from a profession filled with bad lawyers.
Can you point to an article about the two girls from India?
Yes, this is true. This is how Microsoft and Oracle became what they are-- creativity all pushed out to better places, and only the paper pushers remain to keep the lights just barely on.
What TV has taught me lawyers do: they have a new case every week that goes to trial that week. The case is always won by evidence discovered during the trial, or by testimony of a surprise witness, or an impassioned speech during closing arguments. And the judgement is rendered right there at the end of the trial.
Keep your eyes on the prize and don't fall for Putin's lies.

The sanctions weren't intended to affect the ruble's value in any particular way or to effect regime change. I mean it's IMO nice if they were to effect regime change, but it wasn't a design goal. The people who designed them didn't say "oh, if Russia withdraws from Ukraine but Putin remains president that's bad, so let's try to avoid that".

They were intended to damage Russia's ability to wage war (and do some other things, which I'll ignore now, I think, because I want to use one concrete example and focus on that). So are they effective at that? Well, you've read that Russia has lost a lot of tanks. Take that as an example. Have you read that Russia is increasing production of its latest tank to compensate, or that it's repairing modern but damaged tanks? You haven't. You've read that Russia is fetching 50-60 year old tanks from storage and sending those to the front. I posit that Russia is doing that because it can't repair modern tanks or make more of the latest model, and that it can't because of the sanctions. That indicates that the sanctions are effective at that part of that stated goal.

Putin would love to make people in the west think that the sanctions are ineffective by confusing them about their goals and effectiveness. Don't let him do that.
My experience in martial arts competition lines up to this. The best way to "win", although not the most interesting or fun, is to train with an emphasis on drilling and repetition. Which is one of the many reasons wrestlers do so well against non-wrestling grapplers. Their training creates a very reflex based application of moves. You're always faster than your opponent when you don't have to slow down and make decisions on the fly.
I keep catching myself thinking this too.

In general, I think it's kind of an interesting heuristic to think about every so often: right now, putting aside practicalities like my current job or where I live, what looks like a cool place to work, even if the specific role was just taking out the garbage.

Right now the answer is "tailscale" and "oxide" for me.
the sheer number of mindnumbing number of open cases in indian judiciary is the problem.

Here are a couple of livestreams of high courts in india
https://www.youtube.com/c/BlackGownlaw
https://www.youtube.com/c/GujaratHighCourtLive/videos

you can easily find courts right now hearing cases from 20-30 years ago meaning all that time, the case has been delayed for some reason or the other.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-1qOtI9zv8

here is a hearing for a person who has been incarcerated for 4 years and no charges have been filed against him. the court granted him bail but it only took the court 4 years to do so.

edit: that said, it is simply not a question of increasing the number of courts because apparently it costs milions and millions to set up a single courtroom.

things have definitely improved in the last decades as arbitration is given preference, there is things like "lok adalats" where small cases are heard in a quick succession so that case loads are reduced.
Open source is great. But I meant just a high level overview explanation right here. I’d be interested to hear.
Treating it as an "investment" and not a "cost" is not really helpful.

The way I usually treat it is: Can I pay off this mortgage in the event I don't want to sell the property?

Negative equity is a thing, sure, but if you were always happy to pay the price then the thing you're buying is worth the price, right?

Sometimes people think of things as having value only if they're relative to something else. But value is value, and value is the price that you're willing to pay.
The L for “libre” in FLOSS may be to avoid negative connotations of "free" as low quality or not worth paying for.

>have you thought about trying local small accounting firms/law firms for your taxes as opposed to monolith "big 4?"

Yes, and we did. On several instances, we had silly problems like the accountant going to vacation right before tax deadline, other frustrations like communication problems.

>big 4 people will have the best paid execs and partners but the leg work is made to be done by interns and stuff. On the other hand, in a small firm, its all hands on deck to finish/work on a case.

That was one clause in the agreement as I said. Our account was to be handled by seasoned people and we had put in the contract that they had to answer our questions. Granted, they don't always know what to do, but you're not left hanging, but regulations here are another story.

>* smaller boutique firms, i would suggest you look up your local firms first as they are more inclined to give more attention and care to your work*

Done that. It's good advice. Maybe for another company but we needed our accounting to be tight given the direction we wanted to go, and the cost of doing so was almost the same as going with a smaller accounting practice.

FWIW, there _are_ a number of technical and conceptual differences between Context+`useReducer` and Redux. I wrote an extensive post describing those differences and potential use cases for each:

I am identifying the beginning of a trend of increasing violent crime. It is still increasing. Murders are higher in 2022 than they were in 2021, which were higher than they were in 2020, in most American cities.

Nowhere else in the world had a crime spike like the U.S. Covid restrictions surely exacerbated the situation but they are not the cause.

There just isn't any evidence that such stuff actually exists in our universe.

For anyone struggling with the complexity and boilerplate of Redux, at my day job we added Redux Toolkit (the newly recommended add-on by the Redux project itself!) and it solves most of the verbosity issues! We use it to share all our state logic over mobile and web and it works excellently now. I'd actually recommend Redux w/ Redux-Toolkit, for the first time ever.

> In addition, if you want to have your app load as smaller chunks rather than a single large bundle, you need to be careful to ensure that things work even all the backing reducers aren't yet loaded.

In the decade old application we use redux saga in at work, a large portion of our 7MB minified/gzipped main chunk is redux handlers. It'd be nice if there was a relatively simple way to not synchronously load all the reducers up front.
I'm not a lawyer, but this seems far too narrow, and focused on trial lawyers.

For instance, what about corporate lawyers writing up merger agreements? Or estate lawyers helping to plan for after death? Or family lawyers helping people through divorce?

Statutes obviously matter in those cases, in the sense that they always matter, but often aren't the main focus.

Even criminal stuff doesn't usually go to trial, and it's not because of some amazing insight in reading statutes. It's because often, the criminal is obviously guilty (or has no capacity to express why they are innocent) and it's just a negotiation over the terms of a guilty plea. Part of that is knowing the statute, but most is just knowing what other plea deals have been reached in similar cases recently.
I disagree. The answers to these situational questions say a lot about a candidate, and their importance is often underestimated by inexperienced interviewers, IMO.

In this specific question, a few things I'd be looking for are:

* Was the candidate proactive in resolving the challenge? Many people just complain when they run into hard problems and expect someone else to pick up the slack.

* Did the candidate learn something, or step outside of their comfort zone? This could be as technical as "I had to learn how this legacy codebase's build scripts worked" or "I had to research postgres' MVCC implementation" to something as nontechnical as "I had to schedule a meeting across 10 different departments and get agreement on changing an internal process."

Coding challenges are just one piece of the puzzle. I've previously made hires who were great at the coding part but gave weak answers to situational questions and they ended up not working out; they were excellent coders but would never really push anything forward beyond whatever tickets were assigned to them. By that I don't mean "they didn't work 60 hours a week," I mean that they never wanted to take the time to think about the current state of how things were done and come up with ways to improve the situation. This type of developer would probably be fine in a larger organization, but when you're hiring a senior dev for your 20-person startup, a hire like this can be a disaster.
Ok, I’ve added a clarifying statement. The word “nothing” in my post overstated the case based on my reading of the post with respect to communication and preparation for court.

Keep it simple. Experiment incrementally and find out what works for you. Pay close attention to your body and cut out what it doesn't like.

What has been working for me lately is:

1. Eating one big meal and perhaps a small snack later all within a 4-6 hour window; also do a 24 hour fast about once a week. This has eliminated my acid reflux, helped me gain more energy and focus, and have never slept better.

2. Cut out 95% of my sugar and carb intake, also cut out dairy as I seem to have a mild intolerance/allergy to milk which I indentified from performing an elimination diet experiment. This has helped me eliminate various forms of skin inflammation which I had been suffering from for years. Also cutting out sugar has helped me tremendously with emotional balance and equanimity.

3. Eat primarily whole unprocessed foods

I stick to a few simple meals such as:

-Scrambled eggs with onion, garlic, peppers, salt, cumin

-Steak cooked in ghee and oven roasted veggies (brussel sprouts, green beans, carrots)

-Oven baked fish and veggies

-Occasional small amounts of low sugar fruit after rigorous exercise

My typical snacks are:

-Hemp and chia seeds mixed into almond butter and pinch of salt

-Bell pepper and hummus

-A handful of mixed nuts

I also supplement with wild alaskan salmon fish oil, for the omega 3 fatty acid
"This manpage is current for version 3.2.5dev of rsync" – so I guess it's from git.
Weird that XState was not mentioned.
For me using xstate was a game changer. Pulling logic out into a state machine gives you so much clarity over your application logic. Also nice to have your business logic defined with something that is framework agnostic.

> it was written by an attorney not someone that cares about sharing ideas open and freely

Of course it was written by attorneys. Do you know how FSF, DFSG and OSD even began? They found a legal solution to the problem of sharing code while guaranteeing certain rights for the user who use the code! The open source licenses are written by attorneys too.

You are free to distribute under whatever terms you want but your code does not become open source just because it is shared with the public. Some countries do not even recognise "public domain". In such countries it becomes necessary to attach a valid open source license to your code. That's why the various open source licenses are drafted by attorneys to ensure they can provide appropriate rights to the user of the code.

I think this is the really hard part, and part which cannot be made reliable without growing enough intermediate specimens sometimes and assessing their success in the actual environment.

If we were actually any good at predicting the success of an organism just from genetic composition, we'd be able to just genetically engineer a highly successful variant, obviating the many intermediate steps.

That's just nonsense. My wardrobe value has never exceeded ~GBP250.

My experience is that the system is rife with incompetence and convenient inconsistencies.
Science and Law are the twin pillars of modern civilization - from a theoretical point of view. The approaches are fundamentally different - for example, a court will generally not throw up its hands in despair and say "we can't come to a conclusion on this as we don't have the experimental data yet, maybe in a few decades" - hence the practice of indefinite detention without trial, or indefinite suspension of a civil case - is not legally sound (Gitmo ahem). On the other hand, science has little to say about moral decisions, it simply reports on factual matters. For example, cannibalism is abhored by the legal system but as long as you don't consume the brains & nervous tissue (prion diseases etc.), and cook it thoroughly, flesh is basically flesh, say the scientists. Hence it can be rather unwise to let scientists make moral decisions (John von Neumann wanting to surprise-nuke the Soviet Union and slaughter a hundred million people is a notable example, as is Mengele's interest in acquiring human subjects for medical experimentation), and equally unwise to let lawyers make decisions about scientific issues such as the role of fossil fuels in global warming, or the safety and efficacy of vaccines (politicians who were shady lawyers in their past lives controlling the budgets of federal science-funding agencies comes to mind as a negative example).

The practice of science and law is, in contrast to the theoretical ideal, woefully corrupt, biased and untrustworthy in our modern world. Finding a lawyer or scientist capable of explaining complex topics in their domain without trying to manipulate things for their own personal benefit is a fairly difficult process, much like sifting dirt to find gems. The fact is, science and law requires intelligent individuals, but intelligence without any self-consistent moral code easily leads to the clever self-serving manipulator and con artist types.

Any business or government entity that needs to hire scientists and lawyers to make progress has their work cut out for them, that's for sure - assuming they want accurate reports, and aren't just trying to get 'reputable experts' on board who will tell the public that toxic waste is good for your health, or to find shady lawyers who will help hide the profits in offshore tax havens.
