It's much worse than that. You will be on the hook for garnished wages for years to pay off your creditors. And you will have plenty of creditors because the GP's advice says "go lose a civil case". You know what a civil case has? Damages. You know how large the damages are if your strategy is to lose? Big. They have a trademark case so they could get attorney's fees. We're talking about a seven figure bill in fees alone if the case goes to trial. Following this advice could have the OP getting his wages garnished as long as he lives to pay off a multimillion dollar debt. Good luck with that.

This is not legal advice, but here's what I would do:

1. Recognize that they have requested exactly four specific actions from you (bullet points, second page)

2. Do not follow the 4th bullet point, affirming in writing any future conduct only opens you up to liability. (By affirming, you'd create some agreement that they could later make hay about you breaching if they're not happy with your future conduct.)

3. Follow the 3rd bullet point rigorously. They do have a claim on Trademark infringement, and that will hold up well enough. Clean it up ASAP.

4. Take a legal position on where you stand vis-a-vis the LinkedIn User Agreement.

- BrowserFlow (or Road to Ramen LLC) is not a party to that agreement, so you can argue that you're not bound by it. The individual person who is using BrowserFlow is, since they have a LinkedIn account.

- If you want to play it safe, remove the LinkedIn examples from your website. (Bullet two.)

- I would not change the existing functionality of BrowserFlow -- my view here is that this is general-purpose tech and BrowserFlow doesn't have an agreement with LinkedIn. Any consequence of misuse of BrowserFlow is on the end-user, not you. (As spelled out by the terms at https://browserflow.app/terms, which contain a limitation of liability section.)

Do prepare for your LinkedIn account to be banned though.

This is absolutely terrible and irresponsible advice. "Declare bankruptcy immediately and protect your assets" is the worst possible way to handle the situation, since: 1. Losing the court case does exactly what you don't want to happen here; 2. On top of that, you get to go bankrupt! Ruin!

You managed to make money on a levered high-beta strategy in a zero interest rate environment? If you don't know who the rube is in a market, it's you. Add a bit of volatility and the smart kids at Jane Street will eat your portfolio. They are on both sides of every trade, taking your money no matter what you do.

The days of the "good track record" traders in the public markets have been over for 15 years. Forget your strategies, park your money in SPX and thank me later.

That's not the right frame of reference to use. Yes, they're a little more pollutive than cycling or walking. However, they're also much faster. Scooters compete with cars, not with walking. And it is obvious that scooters are much more environmentally friendly than people driving or purchasing cars.

Thanks for this, you're one of the very few in this thread who get the point.

Sure, food is a way of sharing cultures and connecting to some common history -- I agree with you that these are all means of self-expression and connection -- but I'm not really interested in this mode of expression.

And for most other parts of life, that's a legitimate position and you're allowed to opt out. Don't like musicals? Don't watch them. There are lots of things from which people derive emotional, cultural, community and individual value -- and where other people choose not to participate, and that's broadly seen as fine.

But food is in a different, much more oppressive position: I'm not allowed to opt out. I am forced to participate, to some extent by cultural forces, and more broadly by the primitive cravings of my body. And the fact that I don't have much choice about participation is a fact that I do not like.

Been there, to some extent already: https://jayriverlong.github.io/2021/11/25/pornography.html

Sorry, that was a typo on my end. I'll push a fix momentarily. (Do note that the math for $630k over 9y was right.)

Sorry, I wasn't aware of that. I was under the impression that palliative care is (at least generally) end-of-life comfort for the dying. I wish I had chosen a more appropriate term.

I wouldn't count strcmp, etc. It returns < 0 if str1 is shorter and > 0 if str1 is longer. Returning 0 means there is 0 difference. That's not a True/False.

"0" is not a "truthy" exit code for a system call, it rather denotes the absence of an error.

In my view, a value X being "truthy" means that `bool(X)` evaluates to TRUE, or `if(X)` gets executed.

Yeah, exit codes aren't what I'm talking about here.

In Hoon/Nock, `if(0)` literally gets interpreted as True. That's insane.

Sure, all data is on other people's servers, but the point is that you have tamper-proof, globally distributed, redundant copies of that data. Storing a piece of data on Ethereum is way different from hosting it on a single cloud machine.

Where in C is 0 truthy (or 1 falsy)?
