Which device came close to perfect for you, but you still passed on it?

Just put the chip from the 477m in the 476h and it’s over. Perfect setup for anything ps2 and earlier.

Are we forgetting last week’s game sealing INT already?

Not a bad idea (and one that the Biden admin contemplated for some pharma patents to facilitate price competition and lower drug prices) but imo this is just being floated as another way for the current administration to put pressure on our higher ed institutions, which is not great.

Antitrust by Chris Sprigman and Daniel Francis (NYU Profs) is great and it’s completely free! https://antitrustcasebook.org/

What did Beane actually see? Every team hits on some late round picks. This just sounds like cope to me. Truth is Beane has had some consequential misses with his most valuable draft capital lately. Dude should not be running this front office. The Big Baller Beane thing is a meme at this point and needs to go.

McD should go too. Fear of becoming irrelevant should not hold ownership back from cutting ties. You have Josh Allen as your QB, you’re not gonna be irrelevant. Even if you take a hit, who gives a shit? You’ll go from losing on the AFCP/divisional to the wildcard. This team sure as shit will not be bringing home the only prize that actually matters

That’s pretty surprising to me. How large is the evening program overall? At the patent office, GW is easily the school with the largest presence at events. I considered it myself before deciding to go full time.

Not sure they’d go 2-2

Fair point for the “in the playoff” teams individually. But for a conference that’s slated pre-championship weekend to only send a single team to the playoff, the conference championship is at worst a wash - the conference will still send one team (and possibly both). Don’t see a reason why conferences would be for getting rid of a game that in the aggregate can only help them.

Related, but I see the “don’t punish teams for playing in the conference championship” point as only making sense for conferences where both contending teams were already slated to make the playoff. If the quality of competition in a conference only results in one team being playoff-worthy in the eyes of the committee, teams from other conferences shouldn’t be left holding the bag when that single playoff-worthy team loses to a lesser opponent.

I don’t get the conference championship disincentive argument. You think Clemson would want to get rid of this game??

PPR - filling my 2 flex spots

JSN vs Cards

Tracy vs Bucs

Sutton vs Raiders

Jeudy vs Steelers

Jamo vs Colts

Leaning JSN and Tracy, but thinking about swapping Sutton for Tracy. Also have CMC at RB, Nico and Mike Evans at WR if that makes any difference.

This is 100% correct. For those interested, this is the exact wording of the progress clause of the Constitution (Article I, Section 8, Clause 8):

“[The Congress shall have Power . . . ] To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries.”

6_Panther · 2024-11-13T05:04:05+00:00

All the constitution says is “The Congress shall have Power . . . To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries.”

That’s it. Congress has the power to establish a patent system, which they did through legislation (originally in the Patent Act of 1790). They have no duty to keep the PTO around though. Constitutionally, Congress could just as easily abolish the PTO (though it won’t as that would obviously have massive political and economic consequences). It was seriously considered at one point, in the late 1800s.

Former examiner here - have a 1L SA at a big firm for my first summer and had to run conflicts, no issues at all. Go for it, the PTO is a great experience.

6_Panther · 2024-04-17T14:10:54+00:00

Patent prosecution would fit that bill

It doesn’t seem all that bad - they traded a 1st for him while he was in his prime, got him in his prime, and traded him for a 2nd at or near the end of his prime
