And virtually every day, we get to watch the effects of legislation and rulemaking that is carved in stone, never to be revisited to accommodate new environments, shifting contexts or even radical changes in underlying technologies.
True that airlines hate the TSA. After most flights, I get customer satisfaction surveys (yes, I've been marked as a patsy); and they always ask about my TSA "experience". Wonder what they're planning to do with the data?
Well, I think the new President should handle that like he's treated all other Obama actions: nullify immediately. That ought to show those privacy-hoarding snowflakes.
Looking forward to a lucrative retirement career buffing up the English in bogus DMCA takedown requests. No one need know you have no legitimate interests to protect. Asian and Eastern European pigeon-syntax a specialty! Call today, and I'll tweak the Nigerian twang out of your 419 letters, too.
The are still a whole bunch of nonsensical "the Court"'s peppered throughout the quoted sections; looks like someone did a global search-and-replace of "Judge" with "the Court", perhaps intending only to replace one instance.
Not that it really matters, though; we still get the idea.
"Hansmeier has scored a very good pair of public defenders..."
That caught me off guard... but if he's really broke, there's some good karma flowing nonetheless.
However, while it may be a coup to find PD's willing to write 64 page pleadings, there's an apparent tradeoff here for delivering that kind of bulk: their use of the English language is pretty crappy.
He's taking a page from the idea of the Markman hearing, used in patent cases, which is used to educate the judge as to the technology in question. (One hopes.) Markman hearings can also degenerate into two-sided sales pitches, in which both parties want the judge to believe their own unique slant on the fine points... to wit, the ones that will let them prevail.
Or, of course, he might just be exercising common sense by learning about something before opening his mouth. Wish we all could do that more often.
So it seems to have taken the election of The Great Orange One to actually get a broad LE group to coalesce around a cause, and to make a unified, positive statement about needless incarceration and community relations. Wish we could have arrived here without electing a madman.
We've been looking for a silver lining since last November, and there probably isn't one; but maybe we can fabricate one out of little scraps of foil like this.
The semantics around this are staggering... is simple concatenation of fragmented (separately stored) parts "copying"? And when "seizure" is considered a poisoned term, start using "disclosed" and avoid the fuss... I can't imagine all or even many of the terms bandied about actually have any standing in these contexts.

Sounds like an "activist judge" to me! And from what I hear, the current regime doesn't care for that one little bit.
