I know law stuff (appellate and IP) and technology stuff. Not a very funny account.

@paulmagers "He asked only whether we could, not whether we should."

@NateSilver538 Patent law names as an inventor any human who made a "more than insignificant contribution" to the idea of the invention -- so a pretty low hurdle for humans

@EnswellJones Kind of thought he'd pick the little community beach at my Minnesota Lake. A travesty to pick Hawaii instead.

@webster I don't necessarrily believe this, but it's a good thing to consider. Foreign prosecution can be a huge distraction, and it's nice to not worry about it at all. 2/2

@webster Hot Take: never file foreign (unless you are biopharma, medical device, or some other niches). Instead, focus your attention and budget on getting lots of really good U.S. patents. U.S. litigation is way better than foreign, and a U.S. injunction can wipe out competitors. 1/2

@webster The wife of my law office's managing partner (they lived in Medina) was a co-star on the storm chasing show Twister Sisters, so there's some connection.

@jzulgad Is it even ethical to do a trust fall with someone taller than 7 feet?

@KannonShanmugam “Um, ah, Judge Lourie, in the middle it has you and me dancing with each other. Cool?”

Why won’t the senior eligible Rs give Trump their seats? I’ve thought about this from many angles. There isn’t an ideological through-line (party people v. nonpartisans). There isn’t a process one (rough confirmation v. easy). But it turns out one thing does unite nearly all: 1/4
Mike Fragoso@mike_frags
Here’s the timetable for judicial nominations until the elections as best as one can currently predict. Each color is a hearing, a markup, and floor eligibility for a group of noms. The notes should be self explanatory. If you want to go senior, you have a couple weeks.

@Patrick_Reusse @nickhaltermpls If the Wolves turn it around and win this year, Dave gets the lead car in the parade, for retiring

Minnesota’s four major men’s pro teams never won a title during Dave’s run at KDWB.

The craziest part of this is that Adrian Peterson has yet to even officially retire
Minnesota Vikings@Vikings
What started as a trip to talk to the rookies ended with a Ring of Honor surprise. A well-deserved recognition after a legendary career for @AdrianPeterson.

@atrupar Twins fans booed him at game 2 of the 1991 World Series because he paid exact change for Cracker Jacks on his way back from a bathroom break. I was a couple rows behind him, and that might be the game where he and Jane fell asleep.

Trump: "Ted Turner, one of the Greats of All Time, just died. He founded CNN, sold it, and was personally devastated by the Deal because the new ownership took CNN, his 'baby,' and destroyed it. It became woke, and everything that he is not all about. Maybe the new buyers, wonderful people, will be able to bring it back to its former credibility and glory. Regardless, however, one of the Greats of Broadcast History, and a friend of mine. Whenever I needed him, he was there, always willing to fight for a good cause! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
