I'm a prosecutor and took the week off to visit my parents in Florida. My office secretary fought me when I gave her a forwarding phone number because I shouldn't be doing work on my vacation.

You know what law school didn't prepare me for OTHER than being a lawyer? Having to observe urine tests. It's really getting old. I think I like my job in theory, but the actual day-to-day mechanics of it have really lost their charm. There's probably a version of my job somewhere that I could unambiguously enjoy, but the list of gripes gets longer every day. The ennui has really set in; I think I've gone back to the "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow" speech from Macbeth (5.5.17-27) every day this week.

lol this new 101 guidance is so plainly facially wrong but whatever it means less work for me I've already left a comment on how it clearly contradicts binding federal circuit precedent, and they've told us it's mandatory to implement already even though the public comment period just started heckuvajob

In theory the 112 guidance would cover most of the applications that would have been rejected under 101... but let’s be honest, most examiners are going to take the WJ approach and say “gently caress that I’m lazy.”

Like before, if the claim merely recited "categorizing a document using a naive Bayes classifier" the office is going to find it to be patent-eligible, but the courts would clearly hold it to be patent ineligible

Vox Nihili posted:Serving capital/corporate interests isn't exclusively a "V20 biglaw" thing, it's pretty much a "private sector employment of almost any type" thing, particularly for lawyers. Private equity is morally no different than a bank or Google or Nestle or a sovereign wealth fund or any of the 10,000 legal forms that capital may assume. They're all rapacious by definition. You're right that serving capital interests is not exclusively a big law thing, but the difference is big law builds and enforces the structures that regular people have to exist in. V20 big law bears more responsibility for growing wealth inequality, destruction of organized labor and the increasing financialization of the economy than a mid level director at Caterpillar, Google, Nestle or whatever. We build the tax advantaged structures that allow for things like PE funds and MLPs to avoid taxation. When mortgage backed securities were being created, it was V20 lawyers doing the leg work to put them together (e.g., building the actual securities line by line). It's impossible to separate what high level corporate attorneys do from the larger macro level trends in the country and handwave it away by just being like "I'm basically the same thing as a Target manager so whatevs".

"20-ish days" from like Wednesday? although I don't know if that's calendar or business. Apparently Iancu said something about it at the beginning of the shutdown?

Also historically, the firm that did the most if the early securitization work wasn't prestigious and is dead. (And a lot of the firms that picked up from that weren't the V20 either. It was crappy work.)
