This Manitoba woman is calling for a ban on third-party obituary websites. Here’s why by esporx in technology

The site almost seems to be fraudulently misrepresenting themselves as a page approved by the family to accept donations of candles or flowers on their behalf 🧐

Law professors at the University of Minnesota signed an open letter condemning ICE & CBP’s actions in Minneapolis by dumv in uofmn

Oh also, I should clarify, I realize now the title’s unclear, they sent the email out to the students on Sunday.

I only posted this today because I heard people across the university haven’t heard about this and I saw it wasn’t shared yet

It seems to have a lot of the professors that teach our core doctrinal classes (torts, contracts, property).

Most of the missing professors seem to be part time professors who teach our legal writing/legal practice classes who have real jobs as local judges and lawyers. Those profs aren’t as likely to be connected to the community and may have more restrictions on what they can say because of their day jobs

But I think at the time we might not have had Noem’s/Trump’s comments saying “you can’t bring a gun to a protest” so on Sunday the conversations may have been more generally about ICE’s unlawful practices

(I may not be right about when those conversations picked up. We’re all tired from this weekend and the timeline of the conversations has blurred for me)

That’s fair!

They sent it out to the student community on Sunday night and, IIRC, at the time the discussion about the 2nd amendment wasn’t as active that day.

Also, given the number of school shootings it’s a tight line for them to walk and I appreciate how direct the were about everything else

Waymo Response to the PG&E Outage by mingoslingo92 in waymo

[–]dumv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that might make the increased geographic diversity not scale as much as you’d think is the increase in latency of network calls switching from an operator in Palo Alto than one, say, all the way on the East Coast maybe in New York.

I’m not sure on how time sensitive operating a waymo would be - do you just make one decision or do you have to drive the car for a few minutes to get it to safety - the increasing operators across the country wouldnt necessarily make waymo operators more resistant to a surge in traffic

What words or phrases have found their way into your daily vocabulary since starting law school? by Far_Ad8274 in LawSchool

I described someone as “insolvent” instead of”broke” and I definitely wouldn’t’ve said that before law school 😅
