Here's my favorite format, which my sister and I made. It doesn't work well for all recipes, but it does for lots of them. Minimizes words, easier to visualize steps.
I agree with what lots have written here. The biglaw firms that have notable tech practices are good and have resources for brand new startups. For example, CooleyGo or Latham Drive or Wilson Sonsini's term sheet generator. For PPs and Terms, I tend to start with competitor services and see how theirs are written/compare clauses. The more established the company, the more likely it is that you can rely on them to have had their own docs vetted by decent attorneys, though of course quality isn't guaranteed. I have used TermsFeed as a starting point before.
For employment matters, SHRM's "Tools and Samples" resources are good.
Thompson Reuters has a free 7 day trial of their "Practical Law" product, though I haven't explored it personally.
Techcontracts.com is a good resource.
ETA: these are all starting points - the docs always have to be reviewed and modified for your particular circumstances. But they’re reasonable for the first draft.
(I do outside general counsel work for small startups)
Maybe because they have longer life expectancies and are less likely than men to die in most (all?) age brackets? Their husbands have died of heart disease before they get Alzheimer’s.
Oh I see. Hmm, it’s interesting although the effect seems small enough that I wonder if the true cause is something like “if you get a serious illness as a senior then you’re more likely to decline overall and that’s what contributes to Alzheimer’s.” Since Alzheimer’s also seems correlated with lots of other bad conditions, like T2D, sedentariness, low physical fitness, poor social habits, smoking.
“ By using country-wide data on all vaccinations received, primary and secondary care encounters, death certificates, and patients' date of birth in weeks, we first show that the percentage of adults who received the vaccine increased from 0.01% among patients who were merely one week too old to be eligible, to 47.2% among those who were just one week younger.”
So only 47.2 % of the adults eligible to get the vaccine chose to get it. I am sure that those 47.2% are doing lots of health things right, like paying attention to their vaccine eligibility, for one. I imagine those behavioral differences in the eligible people who chose to get the vax and those who didn’t, could explain this pretty minor reduction in Alzheimer’s.
This would be more interesting if all the eligible adults got the vax, and all the ineligible ones didn’t.
Almost every morning, I wake up and pinch myself to have the great good fortune to be born to UMC parents in the wealthiest, most flourishing and innovative place in the history of human civilization.
Also, s/o to the data visualization team at the Economist for some really clever, well done charts. You all are second to none.
Any other resources like these to recommend? I’m newly into woodworking and can now make a mean tabletop, but my joinery is much more rudimentary. Would be nice to be able to make nice looking gifts for people earlier in the learning process.
What retirement or sabbaticals could look like is even more interesting, particularly the younger you can start: part time work, volunteering for things you’re interested in, mentoring younger people, learning entirely new skills, taking up an athletic pursuit, running for office or doing public service, etc etc.
I’m a lawyer and a few years ago negotiated a “we own everything you make” clause in an agreement for a batch of engineers who were being hired at the same time. We couldn’t get the clause changed - as others have said, BigLaw drafted it, the employer didn’t want to change it - but we did get an email after back and forth that said they had no intention of enforcing that clause for stuff you make outside of work. So I sent that email to the engineers and they can hold onto it in case there’s an issue in the future.
Reasonable companies don’t want to get a reputation for litigating employment clauses like this. Sure, there are outliers, but nobody wants to be on the front page of HN for suing an engineer over a side hustle. Especially not in this labor market!
Side note: it was delightful to me that the engineers carefully read the agreement and one of them consulted their own lawyer. Most people don’t do that.
Emily Oster has reviewed the literature pretty comprehensively and the best evidence we have is that breastfeeding has some short term benefits over formula, especially if you live somewhere without safe water. But no significant long term benefits.
Bf is really hard for a lot of women, and other women (me) don’t enjoy it. It’s really painful in the beginning, means that I’m solely responsible for feedings and night wakeups, puts me at risk of mastitis, thrush and postpartum depression (probably exacerbated by lack of sleep), requires me to stay close to home for months. There’s nothing special about breastfeeding apart from this feeling people have that “natural” is better. You probably wouldn’t limit your own food intake to what’s “natural” - what you can kill or grow within walking distance of your home - why would you limit your baby’s in the same way?
