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)
Good luck!
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.
Am I missing something?
Also, s/o to the data visualization team at the Economist for some really clever, well done charts. You all are second to none.
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.
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?
