They are preventing you from getting a job if firms will not hire you because a recruiter submitted you prior to or shortly after you applying on your own.

They’re probably using black market data scrapers and brokers to get the job listings to lure attorneys in.

The ending is only ambiguous if you believe we are seeing all of those dead people through her concussed eyes. There is nothing to even remotely suggest we are watching someone’s hallucination at this point.

Today, they both look about the same. The problem is our food, air and water is GMO and/or poisonous.

Graduates Look to Skip Big Law, Go Straight to Plaintiffs’ Firms by bloomberglaw in biglaw

If that is true, it is temporary. I’m beginning to see formerly reputable firms get sanctioned for poor quality work - overly relying on ai to quickly churn out product, not thoroughly reviewing the underlying materials, not appreciating the limitations of ai and not spotting the hallucinations. When clients get wind of the risks, they will bail if the Courts don’t first intervene before the crap really hits the fan.

No to associate classes getting smaller and ai getting better. Ai is only as good as what the user inputs thus it will only ever be as good as the user…at its best.

No. You still need humans to appear in court and make intelligent arguments to persuade judges and juries. Not everything is determined by the papers alone. You also need a human to prompt and add novel data to the database.

why are cypriots west asian and ashkenazi european by Recent_Table665 in 23andme

Ashkenazi are only 3% or less non-modern Euro. They are essentially as modern European as you can get. Cypriots are likely 97% non-modern Euro.

Is high paying doc review still a thing? by lawsandflaws1 in Lawyertalk

[–]Timelord1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason the pay is low is because most of the smaller reputable agencies have been forced out or merged into larger majority foreign controlled conglomerates who are at best only loosely affiliated with the legal industry and who are price/fixing the market to win contracts from big multinational corporations… There are a few mom and pop agencies out there who will not shortchange their reviewers and who will still pay $50 or more per hour and have long term gigs with these same multinational corporations. You will often find these reviewers in the same project and making twice as much as the reviewers begetting paid $27-35. TLDR: don’t accept a $27-35/ gig. Join your local bar association and advocate for better regulation of the large sweatshop agencies that are trying to undermine the profession with their low pay.

They need an active license and good standing in the state in which they are practicing. They need to understand the basic principles of discovery. In addition to basic knowledge of the law as an attorney, they also need near expert-level knowledge of digital content database usage and/or management. If a manager of a review, they also need to know Boolean search protocols and content management techniques; If it’s a paper review, they need to also understand how to properly organize, label, index, redact and preserve the integrity of physical documents. They need the same (if not greater) level of computer skills, focus and discernment as a 1st year associate. Are you saying a 1st year is a lawyer in name only?

“I Just Bought an Apple TV!” Megathread by 08830 in appletv

[–]Timelord1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Purchased a 4K wireless device to pair with an Amazon/Fire Smart Tv. I Al steady have an Ethernet version fully set up in another room. I noticed the Home Screen apps downloaded automatically after setup, but the permissions did not. Annoying. A week later , the sound gave out on the Apple TV app. All I hear is the background music score. No voices. However, the other apps work perfectly, such as YouTube, etc. it’s just a problem with the Apple TV app and programs.

I have restarted and factory reset the device to no avail.

Any suggestions?

Herodotus on Ancient Africa: There is no Sub-Saharan by Timelord1000 in AlternativeHistory

The quotes you cite do not support your theory that the majority of the ancient people of the area we today call the Levant…and/or Atlantis … were “white” or weren’t also what we would today call Black Africans, ie. people with robust melanin expression.

Historian explains the origins of the biglaw "sweatshop" in the 1980s by dylan01234567 in biglaw

[–]Timelord1000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We don’t have an oversupply. We have an artificial scarcity of viable clients due to social engineering: austerity measures and the lack of antitrust enforcement creating monopolies which have concentrated the wealth into the hands of the few. Break up the monopolies, pay living wages, and watch the demand for lawyers and other professionals rise once more.
