I don't know, it works on mine!

Good point, but one does not always have the luxury of the numpad. I will probably go back to using an autoreplace substitution.

I would have been tempted to surgically transplant the top from the other spray bottle, which would likely have resulted in the irony of 2 full bottles of non-stick spray, stuck forever.

Thanks! I do hope that will ultimately be sustainable.

I don't think I've seen any ads yet on BlueSky. Are they coming? How does this platform make money?

I don't think so, as several counties have canvass deadline extensions to Monday. But I'm not sure what's left statewide in terms of votes.

Today I received the very last issue of the NC Law Review that will list me as EIC. But the credit belongs entirely to current UNC 3Ls. Our 6th issue is always the first one the incoming editors produce. It still fills me with pride to pass the torch to a new board that is doing just amazing work.
The cover of the North Carolina Law Review vol. 2 issue 6.

(Re)introducing myself to #lawsky! I was a scientist (Biomedical Engineering) who thought his lawyer spouse @rachelgurvich.bsky.social had a fun job. So I followed her to law school (UNC '24) quite literally, as she teaches there. Hilarity ensued, as did some patent law.

I am referring to the 21st edition specifically. Older editions may be found on random bookshelves around the house.

I'm fairly sure this puts us in the top 0.1% of American households by number of Bluebooks owned. @rachelgurvich.bsky.social and I each own one, and apparently if you put two of them together, well, nature takes its course.

Logarithms 🤓. So much of the world operates exponentially that it is very useful to think logarithmically to make sense of those scales. In other words, when we think of what's halfway between 10 and 1000, the more useful answer is often 100, not 505.

Thanks for thinking about us! One takeaway I had from this is that this generation of students is depressingly proficient at erecting room barricades. Everyone at the law school is physically OK.

Since a lot of law professors have migrated to this non-bird app: Let it be known that the NC Law Review will open for submissions via Scholastica a week from today, on Monday, July 31. [Insert Let's Get Ready to Rumble gif]

Our bookstore has an environmental law book listed for this class, which I assumed was a mistake. But maybe the whole class is on West Virginia v. EPA now.

A month from today, I will start my last ever academic year as a student. My lineup for the fall: Admin Law 🏢 Federal Jurisdiction 👩‍⚖️ First Amendment 💬 State & Local Government ⛲️ I will savor as much as I can the privilege of just spending the whole day learning.
