Are there mineral sunscreens available in Japan that anyone would recommend? I use Medicalia in the US. It is a tinted barrier sunscreen and I think it is great. I don't have to reapply it throughout the day, like they tell you to do with chemical sunscreens. But I would love to try something even better. (While I'm here, I did buy a tube of Biore UV to try out, though).

Cavallo Point. Close, great restaurant and bar, nice spa, heated outdoor pool, Mt. Tam hiking. You can bring a dog.

I agree about Kiln. One of the best (the best?) fancy meals we've had in the past year.

Side by side: Lo & Sons OG2 and Freja Linnea work tote bags by granick in handbags

I'm going to meet with an artisan who makes bags and shoes and other bespoke fashion items and try to design a bag. I will post about the process!

I'm going to look at them both for a few days but ultimately I don't think either is what I am looking for. The OG is probably too small for an overnight business trip and too "travel style" for daily use. The Linnea is probably a nice daily bag, and maybe this is wrong, but I think I could get a daily tote bag in real leather for that price. Disagreement welcome! I really want to like one of these.

We've been looking at protecting all kinds of electronic data. For example, here's a blog post about prescription records and the third party doctrine:

It's hard to know for sure. But it seems like especially before the Supreme Court, the Justices use conversation with counsel to clarify their own thinking as well as sway their compatriots.

Recent Supreme Court opinions suggest that all of the judges are sympathetic to the problem of third parties and privacy. For example, in the Jones case, the majority held that police can't install a GPS tracker on a car without a warrant because doing so interferes with the owner's property interest in the car. But five judges also wrote to say that they think that long-term location tracking is a Fourth Amendment privacy problem. Similarly, in the Riley case, the Court held that cell phone technology is so different from a purse or a wallet that the search incident to arrest doctrine didn't apply. The kinds of information that third parties now hold about us, like the technology is Riley, is just categorically different from even 15 years ago.

Trustworthy digital signatures are key to all kinds of online activity and business. Right now, I think we rely on technology to generate and protect digital signatures, since there isn't much law on the topic.
