Hello, dear newly disgruntled Adobe Illustrator / PhotoShop / InDesign users!

You may like to know that the Affinity Suite is currently on sale for 50% off. No subscription. Perhaps there'll be one in the future for fancy Canva-integrated collaboration, but the base products will always be free. I'm an optimistic soul, so I believe them.

Yes Affinity apps can open native Adobe files. I've been a satisfied customer for many years, happy to endorse them.

I'm proposing a new corollary to the Bechdel test, the Robert Jordan test. A book passes if there are at least two women characters whose bosoms aren't described.

I just bought @lcamtuf 's book Practical Doomsday mostly for my kids so I appreciated who he dedicated it to.

#LegalEthics Tidbit: Can in-house counsel sign a non-compete agreement?

An IL inhouse counsel was asked to sign a employment agreement that included non-compete provisions. The IL State Bar opined this was an impermissible restriction on the right to practice, in violation of IL Rule 5.6. The opinion suggests including a “savings” clause acknowledging the primacy of the ethics rules. (Note that MA has an identical Rule 5.6).

I'm re-reading "Kill Process" and it's funny how I didn't realize at the time that one of the plot points is basically Mastodon.
