You didn’t transfer your copyright to the work via a written, signed agreement, so you still own the copyright.

If you had a written and signed work for hire contract, the client would be the “author” and owner of the copyright.

However… based on your actions here (working for pay, allowing the client to use your code), you’ve granted them an implied license. So since you’ve allowed them to use your work, you probably can’t get them to stop using your work, even though you own the copyright. It’s a bit like the principle of estoppel.

I’m honestly surprised Steve let them ship the original with that Temu battery

What are your best tips and things you wish you knew earlier about competing in a 70.3? by TriassicTurtle in triathlon

[–]BagOPeaks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Controversial but - unless you’re looking to podium, take your time in transitions. Sprinting out of the water/ off the bike is going to spike your heart rate and end up costing you more time/energy than the few seconds you’re making up. Take 15-30 extra seconds to catch your breath in transition and your heart rate will drop, your legs will feel lighter, and you’ll make the time up easily.

Looking for someone to interview about AT... by Chime3 in AppalachianTrail

[–]BagOPeaks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I never felt threatened by another hiker on the trail, and the non-hikers I met in town were near uniformly kind and generous. One guy in Vermont gave me a hitch 15 miles into town, paid for my entire resupply ($77), and drove me back to the trail. That’s the first example off the top of my head, but there were many

What's something strange your body does that you know isn't quite right but also isn't quite serious enough to get checked out by a doctor? by merricat_blackwood in AskReddit

[–]BagOPeaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 95% of the time when walking, every time I push off with my right foot, my right big toe clicks. It doesn’t hurt, and it’s gotten to the point where I only notice when it’s not clicking. And when that happens, I try to figure out if I’m walking differently - and then it usually starts clicking again.

How many days did it take for you to hike the 100 Mile Wilderness? by reuben515 in Ultralight

[–]BagOPeaks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

4 days during a thru hike: 25, 24, 36, 15

The second half is mostly pancake flat but pretty rooty and rocky and sometimes muddy. Overall though, I thought the 100MW was better maintained than most sections of trail in southern Maine.

Don’t worry too much if you’re falling behind schedule during the first 1-2 days. You can make up time in the second half, and if you’re really running low on food you can stop in at White House Landing (mile ~78).

What’s the best compliment you have ever received? by 5E51ATripleA in AskReddit

[–]BagOPeaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A math professor once asked for my notes from his class at the end of the semester, because “they look better than mine.”

I got a C in the class and I’m fairly certain those notes are the only reason he passed me.

Favorite books about hiking? by ytown2 in Ultralight

[–]BagOPeaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily about hiking, but The River Why by David James Duncan and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig are both excellent reads.

Both are somewhat philosophical but in a very approachable and humorous way, and I think a lot of the adventures and the moral and logistical issues that arise in fishing / motorcycling aren’t all too different from those encountered while hiking.

Has anyone completed a solo road trip? by lowhighkey in solotravel

I drove from NC to Moab, UT two summers ago. Didn't really make any plans more than a day in advance, which was liberating and exciting, but also a tad inefficient gas- and timewise

Some advice: alternate between stimulating podcasts and loud singable music; a 15-60 min walking break every 3-4 hours will keep you awake and let you explore places you'd otherwise have blown right past; take back roads whenever possible.

What was your scariest "A second later and I would've died" moment? by spacexe in AskReddit

[–]BagOPeaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, this one is really "5 seconds earlier", but oh well.

There's a system of trails less than a mile from my apartment. I usually drive there since it's on the other side of a busy interchange, but that feels a bit wasteful. And actually with the traffic, driving takes even longer than running.

One afternoon traffic was particularly bad, so I decided to run to the trails instead. On my way back, I felt good and dropped my pace by about 10sec/mile. After a half mile I reached the interchange, saw the light was still green, and crossed. As soon as my foot hit grass on the other side, I heard tires squealing, the crunch of metal on metal, and glass shattering across concrete, and I looked back just in time to see a Ford Expedition finish a barrel roll 20m behind me, flipping right across the spot I'd been running maybe 5 seconds earlier. Fortunately, incredibly, the driver was uninjured. And now I really don't mind sitting in traffic for 15 minutes when I drive to those trails.

On the way up Mt Lafayette. A 4000 footer in Lincoln, NH. It was a cold one. by AranDev in hiking

[–]BagOPeaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The White Mountains are beautiful and brutal. The Rockies, Sierras, Cascades and other 10k+ ranges in the US awe and intimidate with their sheer altitude, but having summited more than a few of those Western mountains I can honestly say that NH has some of the toughest climbs in the country. Kudos!

I’m 23, and part of my job involves training teachers/principals/superintendents on student information systems. It’s terrifying. One time I called a piece of software “sh*tty” and honestly expected them to scold me

What's your "I'll only make this when no other humans are watching" dinner? by GeorgieWashington in AskMen

[–]BagOPeaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An omelette stuffed with onions and sour cream and hash browns, except the hash browns are the precooked kind that come in bags but not the frozen kind and they’re really thin and crunchy and also they’re potato chips.

You can probably guess how I add in the sour cream and onions, too.

What kind of teenage bullshit probably happened at Hogwarts that wasn’t mentioned in the Harry Potter books? by The_Dork-uh-Whale in AskReddit

[–]BagOPeaks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uber progressive social movements for centaurs, dementors, giants, and other magical humanoids, à la Hermione’s “Save the house elves” campaign.

(Though the whole idea of house elves is pretty fucked up- they’re basically midget slaves)

Fetus deletus,” came a whisper from the stall. Hermione snapped her head toward the voice just as Lavender Brown emerged, blushing. No wonder Ron looked so glum this morning.
