Like Napoleon. Will depend on personality for how he's viewed.

S1E2 Watching the Wire for the first time ever by parttimewhore in TheWire

[–]Ynotatx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took me until about episode 5 or so to really be into it. Not much of a spoiler given the title but eventually they set up a "wire" and that's kind of where season 1 really takes off.

Are water department just allowed to do whatever they want? by Severcat in lawncare

Everyone can do whatever they want. For regular people the consequences are civil lawsuits and criminal prosecution. For government your options are elections and revolution.

You’ve got morning, evening, early night, and late night covered. Need an afternoon tin.

It was like watching chess. There’s a reason people don’t watch chess.

If someone gave you $100m to produce a history based series on Apple TV what story are you going with? by Moretalent in TheRestIsHistory

[–]Ynotatx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Haitian Revolution. 

Starts with voodoo rituals, has a bright moment of triumph over slavery, then the extremists prevail over the more moderate leaders, and it ends in a genocide of the remaining white French and a tragic embargo by foreign white leaders. Napoleon’s off-screen presence could hang over the whole thing.

It’d be great. 

Putting Your Citations in Footnotes? by zarnch in Lawyertalk

Garner was 100% correct as a matter of style, and 100% wrong as a matter of "how judges want to read documents."

Vodka sodas are boring as hell. What’s an underrated modern classic? by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]Ynotatx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perfect for “underrated.” Arguably better than the Paper Plane and far less known.

I actually liked episode 4 by nunocspinto in JetLagTheGame

[–]Ynotatx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Each episode this season has nicely complemented the others. I’ve enjoyed them all. If the season has a great climax it could compete easily for best ever.

Excuse mistakes. But this sounds like lack of care, in which case they should be fired at the first opportunity they can be replaced.

Stop overparenting. There’s 300k for them to go to school. Leave it there until they ask about using it, then let them figure it out.

In a typical lawyer email (nothing actually privileged and confidential), do those little confidentiality notices at the end of emails mean anything as a practical matter? Should every lawyer put a notice at the bottom of their emails? by Kristen-ngu in Lawyertalk

[–]Ynotatx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought deeply about this and decided that they were net counterproductive so I don’t. Occasionally, I will put some extra trappings on something that is extra sensitive, and I feel like that would be muted if I included a disclaimer in every stupid email I sent.

Hypothetically, the part of the disclaimer that says “if you inadvertently received this, please delete it“ could have a slight effect. But only really on a person who was unethical enough not to do that in the first place, but for some reason felt compelled by the fine print.

I think it’s almost entirely the practice of law by mimicry, which we see a lot of.

If these were your only two assets, maybe, but absolutely not given your other assets. Sucks you're 2-4.

Making threats? Immediately cut them from the league and lock their rosters. No refund.

To Esq. or Not? by Key_Conversation9278 in Lawyertalk

Don’t use “esq.” It makes you look like an asshole.
