What do you do when your daughter has her pelvis crushed during riding lessons? Buy her a horse so she doesn't need to use someone elses horse. Meet Lex.

They verify the signature on the ballot to the sig on the registration. The trick is they verify a tiny subset and the law requires that the evaluator give all doubts in favor of matching so unless its clearly the wrong name it passes. Theyn They say but we verified all of them.

@Onemoretime2212 lol okay 👌 Sure you do 😆

@litigationai Hpw are you converting things like pdfs to usable data for the ai to analyze?

1/6 Here's how AI changed my discovery review workflow—specifically. Not "AI saves time." What it actually does, step by step, and where you still have to do the work yourself. 🧵

@SalamiHong @claudeai User pref: no drafting until I approve design. Instruction: no drafting until I approve design. Prompt: no drafting until I approve design. Opus: drafting now

@claudeai 4.8 is unnecessarily wordy and pretty much ignores system prompts. I'm having to go back to 4.7 until it's fixed.

Introducing Claude Opus 4.8: it builds on Opus 4.7 with sharper judgment, more honesty about its own progress, and the ability to work independently for longer than its predecessors. Available today at the same price.

@SamaHoole We keep getting fake AI citations in meat and confer. Letters and quietly hoping opposing counsel uses those in their papers

If saturated fat actually clogged your arteries like fat down a kitchen drain, heart disease in your sixties would be the least of your worries. You'd seize up solid on the walk home from the butcher and drop dead in the car park. Your blood runs at 37 degrees, not fridge temperature. Funny, that.

Go try 4 or 5 out, tell.them you are trying to find a good fit and want to attend for a week or pay for a few drops ins, IMHO any coach who will not let you try out a few classes at their gym without signing a long term dealor try out other gyms is a red flag. Pick one at the end and go.

@2nuktuk @MrLeadslinger What should I look for in a good dojo?

In that first BJJ fundamentals class today I was paired with a dude a little bigger than me who was a brown belt. He was cool and patient coaching me on the things we worked on. One drill we worked on was side control transition to full mount and it was immediately apparent to me that there was basically nothing I could do on my own and the guy could smash my jaw or neck if he wanted to by just leaning into it and squeezing with his arm. It’s unsettling. Thinking about this in the context of armed self defense, there’s probably zero chance I could’ve gotten to my gun or knife in that situation or maintained control of it even if I could’ve. It’s a whole different world.

@G0LFISHUNT @MrLeadslinger Yes start now. 53 train 1 to 5 times a week depending of life. Go start, you won't regret it.

@MrLeadslinger For those who do this and know, is it smart for a 54 year old guy to try this? I fear non-stop injuries...but it seems fun. Took goju-ryu in my early 20s and enjoyed that a lot, I know this is very different.

@litigationai Its great but i wonder how staff attorneys treat these briefs differently. Do they double citr check em? Or do they use their own ai tool-draft and ai brief, get an ai order.

More than 30 federal district courts now require attorneys to certify whether AI was used in preparing filed documents. Some require disclosure of which tools. A few require a certification that output was reviewed for accuracy. The local rules vary—some are standing orders, some are judge-specific, some apply to all filings and some only to AI-generated text. Check before you file. The "I didn't know this court had an AI disclosure rule" explanation won’t work, and the benchslaps will be coming hard.

@VickieforNYC Yeah this is exactly what new york voted for so they deserve it

Let's understand a few things about what's actually about to happen here if Zohran gets his way -- which he almost certainly will, unless courts intervene. First and foremost, Cea Weaver and DSA 'organizers' will be unleashed with the full institutional and legal support of the city government to ramp up tenant complaints in targeted buildings. No complaint will be too small. No building will be too small. Everything will be treated as catastrophic. Full-scale demagoguery will ensue, complete with protests, rent strikes, street theater, and harassment of property owners. Accordingly, the city buildings department will be weaponized to begin writing as many violations as possible in order to bolster the city's effort to justify a seizure. It won't matter how small or large the violations are, the total number will be breathlessly cited as evidence of mismanagement. It will be impossible for landlords to clear these violations in good faith. The combination of a weaponized buildings department writing hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines, rent strikes, and constant threats and harassment against landlords by militant activists will make the situation untenable for any property owner to realistically fight back, and the city will seize the property. The landlord will be lucky to walk away without prison or being beaten to death in the street by an angry mob (as Zohran's buddy Hasan Piker referred to landlords -- 'let the streets run red with their capitalist blood'). But that's only the first half of the plan, and everyone needs to pay very close attention to the big picture here, because it's hugely important and has national implications. The properties will then be turned over to nonprofits. This is no small detail. This is in fact the whole point. The idea here is to build up Zohran's DSA-connected nonprofits with a multbillion-dollar portfolio of hard assets -- New York City real estate. This portfolio could theoretically reach into the hundreds of billions or even the trillions, depending on how aggressive they get. Now these highly political nonprofits would become the new land barons of New York, complete with all the political clout, leverage, and reach that goes along with it. It would be a true nightmare scenario. As it stands now, the nonprofits depend mostly on the largesse of grants, donations, and other third-party resources to stay afloat. They are lavishly funded of course, and many do hold significant assets, but it would all pale in comparison to simply handing them the keys to a New York City real estate empire, courtesy of Zohran Mamdani and the DSA. The resources at their disposal would be immense. The organizing potential that goes along with those resources will have national implications. Every DSA candidate in every town and city in the country would be trained, funded, and staffed by organizers with ties to the NYC nonprofit empire backed by a trillion dollars in free real estate. And they would be shameless in leveraging those resources for pure political power. That's the game plan here. That's the whole ball of wax. Zohran isn't interested in making housing better for anyone. If he was, we'd be talking seriously about solving the NYCHA disaster. Hell, if he was even remotely sincere about seizing these properties from 'bad landlords' for the 'public good' he'd be focused on turning them over to the city itself, as misguided as that would be. No, this is about nothing more than consolidating political power for the DSA. Just like everything else these people do. Giving the DSA a massive war chest backed by seized real estate. Once you understand that they have no interest in fixing anything other than elections, it all makes a lot more sense.

@litigationai If I've heard this once (1), I've heard it a thousand (1000) times.

Serious question: Why do attorneys insist on putting numbers in parentheses when there is no potential for confusion? If you give me a five day extension, you telling me I have five (5) days does not make it clearer. If the number is something like 209723945.2847203 ok then, gimme the digits. But come on guys.

@mike1zr2 @Junkyardtactic @braxton_mccoy I regret starting so late 53 with 17, 17, 11

@Junkyardtactic @braxton_mccoy 44 and 24 for me.

FNG yapping about how stupid and horrible it would be to be 42 years old and have an 18 year old child. To me, who is 41 soon and has an 18 year old kid.

@litigationai If it was the attorney using a I the implications would be staggering for any attorney that uses any third party.Software application to assist

@litigationai I may have the wrong case, but my recollection is that case involved a client using a I on their own.Not at the direction of counsel, so i'm not sure why that would be protected at all

A federal court in the Southern District of New York held that documents generated by an AI tool, even after attorney review, may not be protected by attorney-client privilege. US v. Heppner, No. 25 Cr. 503 (S.D.N.Y.). The reasoning: privilege protects confidential human legal judgment communicated to a client. AI output isn't that. This is early case law, and it will be argued both ways. But litigators using AI in document drafting need to know this case exists and understand the theory the court used. The privilege analysis for AI-assisted work product is not settled.

@jerryteixeira @JiujitsuOtter Here's your round two

@2nuktuk @JiujitsuOtter Hope it’s a JJWL tourney? Because then at least I get a second fight after I die. 😂

There are blue belts and then there are ✌️blue belts✌️

@litigationai Agreed. So what's the secret?

They charge what they charge because they can. You're stuck paying it.

Legal tech pricing is absolutely insane for what you get. $500/month for document automation that breaks every third upload. Case management at $300/user runs slower than a million row Excel spreadsheet. Research tools cost thousands annually and still hallucinate citations.

@jerryteixeira @JiujitsuOtter Meet your adult blue belt opponent

@2nuktuk @JiujitsuOtter They are basically brown belt+ skill level.

@scooper1070 @ErrorFeedback @maxmarchione @grok I did .5mg for 4 weeks went up to 1mg for 2 and think im going back down. Zero side effects but my appetite seems too suppressed. Still working out 3x per week down 220 to 206.

@ErrorFeedback @maxmarchione @grok I started at 1mg a week, just for the health benefits of improving cholesterol, cleaning the liver etc., and felt so nauseous that I've had to drop to 0.5mg a week. I cannot see how someone functions if taking 12mg a week. On 1mg, it's a struggle to manage 3 meals a day at most.

Retatrutide phase 3 obesity trial just came out and the results are genuinely insane: - 28.3% bodyweight lost on 12mg over 80 weeks - 70.3 pounds on avg. or 31.9 kg - 45.3% of patients hit 30%+ weight loss (this is bariatric surgery territory) - 30.3% weight loss (85 lbs) at 104 weeks in higher-BMI patients - 65.3% of 12mg patients dropped below the obesity BMI threshold - 19% loss on 4mg over 80 weeks (47.2 lbs) with fewer dropouts than placebo (4.1% vs 4.9%) - significant drops in blood pressure, triglycerides, non-HDL cholesterol, waist circumference, and hsCRP - no cardiac or liver signals Retatrutide is going to completely overshadow tirzepatide and semaglutide, and take the throne as the best-selling drug of all time.

@jerryteixeira @JiujitsuOtter Right you've been training 2 years just got your blue belt, first mat h against a 19 year old with 15 years experience. Both blue belts

@JiujitsuOtter Adult blue belt division is filthy. Have to fight 20 year olds who have been rolling since they were 6. Hard pass 😂

@gordon_cassie Which ones? The lexis connector that doesn't exist or the legal skills that are worse than skills my 17 year old built?

Pretty sure both Claude legal announcements were made immediately before a financing. Gotta pump the stock

@gordon_cassie Code in another window or another pc?

Are people actually able to do anything useful while waiting for Claude Code while working reasonably complex features?

@WeaponOutfitter Put it on the roof, thats how they do it in mexico. Called a pila.

What I ACTUALLY want is the 55 gallon big chonk water storage solution but my wife would have a fit. Not enough space. If you got the space, this is some cheap ass insurance amzn.to/4eQt8XF

amzn.to/3PxQ0Rs Seeing the news about the super el nino is making me glad I have a decent MRE and freeze dried food stash, but also realized that my water storage game is WEAK and I need to fix that.
