My research plan is to get more and more confused about more and more things. The dream is to get really confused about a lot of things at the same time.

Everyone, including those who think we're building powerful AI to improve lives for everyone, should take seriously how poorly our current economic indicators (unemployment, earnings, inflation) capture the well-being of low- and moderate-income folks. politico.com/news/magazine/…

@Clmumme @douglasbrodie5 @TheLawofWork Court might find that the parties had not contracted out of the duty at all, insisting that the duty is so core to the relationship that it could only be avoided through the clearest language, and preferring the practical relationship over the labels given it in the contract.

I respect the dissent's fidelity to the record, but the record captures the old internet. Has Cote J. logged into CanLII recently? Every website is tracking our IP addresses.

So excited to discuss tomorrow @KCL_Law the manuscript of my book, "The Poet of Uncertainty. Shakespeare on Law, Power, and Knowledge." We live in an age of uncertainty: what better guide would you want than Shakespeare, who turned uncertainty into his main creative tool?
