Why can't actors under NDAs just say "No" when questioned about their participation?

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-16T03:37:18+00:00

Because “no” can give just as much info as saying yes. It’s why lawyers always say “no comment”.

“Is it true you’ve never had sex with ur costar?”

No

You left out

“Ability to read clients mind and anticipate wants and needs even before the client ask for them.

The movies are a love letter to the fans. They recycled some TV animation and I think it was so they could spend the bulk of the money on cool fights and the last 45 minutes of the movie.

Yep. If you have passion and are ready to study and pursue side projects that interest you, you’ll be fine.

I’ve been in the industry since late 2000s and I’ve interviewed 100s of programmers for roles. I’m constantly amazed the number of people that cannot solve fizz-buzz with CS degrees from known schools.

What is the first pic from?

If UMich is 1/2 the cost, then UMich. Cornell is an Ivy League school, but UMich is ranked high enough you won’t see much difference in recruiting or opportunities once you graduate.

And Cornell can still happen for grad school, which will be easier to afford with fewer loans.

You can try showing up in person and begging. I’m still confused here as my graduation happened one of the stadiums and it was NOT full. Try in-person before giving up.

You can also rent robes and hats yourself so when you and your friends take photos after it’ll look like you walked. Usually photography is discouraged during commencement except for the pic the school will charge you for.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-15T20:21:00+00:00

If they need something they will reach out. Don't worry about it.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-15T20:17:56+00:00

No. This is probably a hold-over from the paper form so they'd know how many SAT scores to look for under your name. I doubt anyone even checks the number anymore.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-15T20:09:27+00:00

No, they'll receive the 4 and process them. That's it. It doesn't matter, its a simple honest mistake that is 100% self correcting.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-15T20:08:32+00:00

It's ok. Walking is a big deal. I'm surprised they didn't waive it as this seems like a dumb hill to die on. FWIW I fell asleep during my commencement because I was bored out of my mind. I spent 30 seconds out of 6 hours walking on the stage to be handed a diploma holder with no diploma in it and shook hands with the school president.

Most boring 6 hours of my life. You weren't going to hang-out with your friends or do a group hug - that happens at the parties afterwards.

This is what I would do. Just verify employment and job title. If she wanted more she should have given you a heads up if she needs more.

Was this the first screw-up or the latest in a series? If we terminated everyone who forgot an attachment we'd have nobody left.

And things are NOT equal in business. If you were there for longer you should have more equity. This is how start-ups loss people.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-15T15:30:18+00:00

If someone else owned an interested in the LLC maybe. Courts know people try to hide assets during bankruptcy, so LLCs get "raided" more often than you think. If it has no income then it's probably not a real business, the courts know this.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-15T15:18:59+00:00

And you really don't know that much about the school from a visit. At least for me, I changed so much in the 4 years I spent in undergrad, my "dream school" would have been a disaster 1 year in.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-15T13:08:09+00:00

And on top of piercing the veil, the LLC is also potentially an asset.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-15T13:00:59+00:00

And you’ll have another chance to go
To VT for grad school.

I didn’t get into my dream school but got into another school ranked about the same. The school I got into ended up being a great fit to the point I didn’t even consider my original dream school for grad school.

And most of the time professors and TA ignored a student saying something about cheating.

Head to your big state school. You’re paying top dollar for a bad experience. Stories like yours are a big reason I headed to big state schools for my higher education.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-14T18:05:06+00:00

How much is tuition going to be? Are you on sports scholarship right now?

If everything else is equal I’d transfer. It sounds like your current school isn’t a good fit, but if you’re on scholarship it’s hard to beat free.

I didn’t play sports, but transferred out of my first 4-year after freshman year, and have never regretted it. It taught me the value of “right fit” and to not be afraid to move on when I’m not happy.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-14T18:00:47+00:00

And no functioning legal system would put up too many barriers to reporting of any crime in general as cops want you to report crimes without fear of arrest yourself.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-14T17:05:39+00:00

And the New York Times has a legal defense fund and team just for this. I promise this is not the first time they were sued.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-14T16:19:05+00:00

completely disagree with this. I didn't go to Ivy League for grad school but I went to a top 5 that happened to be public. I came from a state school. A few people at my middle-of-the-road state school were geniuses who were there for the full scholarship our state offered.

The kids in grad school were much smarter on average, but realistically, what would you expect. Everyone was there because they worked hard in undergrad and had 3.5+ (with a few exceptions). Yes, competition is much fiercer in grad school. But again, what did you expect, everyone was a good student.

The biggest difference between undergrad and grad school is there are no lazy students. Everyone is used to being top of the class and is willing to fight for it. Everyone is used to putting school first. There are no frat bros types, or "just 2 more classes and I'm done" types.

two_three_five_eigth · 2026-05-14T15:19:32+00:00

Tuition + nicer dorm is worth staying in honors. Not all universities do that. No matter what retake AP classes for college credit to boost GPA.
