I’m not sure what definition of supply chain risk they’re working off of. For NATO to consider an organization to be a supply chain risk, it implies that usual controls (security clearances and the like) wouldn’t be sufficient to guarantee the integrity and security of the supply chain. If that’s the operating definition, I see the contradiction- it’s arguing that a company cannot be trusted to voluntarily work within supply chains but can be trusted enough to be compelled.
If they’re operating under a different definition of supply chain risk, I don’t have a clue.
I really don’t see it. PBCs are dual purpose entities - under charter, they have a dual purpose of making profit while adding some benefit to society. Profit is easy to define; benefit to society is a lot more difficult to define. That difficulty is reflected at the penalty stage where few jurisdictions have any sort of examination of PBC status.
This is what we were all going on about 15 years ago when Maryland was the first state to make PBCs legal. We got called negative at the time.
It’s possibly civil, but I don’t see how this type of negligence would be breaking a law. If it was illegal, a massive number of independent consultants would be serving prison sentences. I’m not sure how that makes anything better though I guess a lot of people think rage is fun.
> Under what statute is it illegal to request legal fees?
You can request anything you want? Granting it would be illegal.
An attorney asking the judge to break the law and award attorney fees is literally asking for something illegal in most circumstances. There are exceptions. (By illegal I mean contrary to law.)
It's funny that 4 people downvoted me instead of bothering to check Wikipedia.
Very few priests take vows of silence. The standard vows are chastity, obedience and poverty. Even highly contemplative orders like Trappists don’t make a vow of silence - they practice something called monastic silence but it’s not a vow.
The closest thing is that a priest cannot share anything told during the sacrament of reconciliation. But that’s not so much a vow as just the other side of what Catholics believe is a direct connection to god.
Confession was originally often made in public. Confessional secrecy is more about making it easier for people to freely confess their sins, free of the fear of retribution or shame, very much like why we have doctor-patient confidentiality enshrined in law today. I would imagine confessional secrecy arose very quickly, even if the norm wasn't private confession.
The first reference I could find for confessional secrecy was from a 4th century book written by the 3rd/4th century Persian bishop, Aphraates. In Demonstration VII, On Penance, he councils priests to keep a penitent's confessions secret, "lest he be exposed by his enemies and those who know him. .... If they reveal them to anyone, the whole army will suffer an adverse reputation."

Well, ish. My theory is that you can have units make individual local choices that add up to somewhat inept pathfinding, and it works out cheaper than maintaining live-updated whole-map pathfinding information.
Well, if each unit leaves its own scent trail, that’s a lot of per-unit state, and little to nothing that you can pre-compute for the entire map. You could have all units trails on a global “scent layer” that all units read from, but then you’re basically just building up a graph of common paths that could have been precomputed for the entire map.
It also doesn’t at all address inter-unit collisions, which is a big topic in RTS pathfinding.
I log into LinkedIn approximately once every five years. While this is apparently ‘career suicide’, I have never lost an opportunity as a result.
Serious question:
Why do we keep putting up with this bullshit? Of course they share data and of course Persona does fucked up shit with the data they generate about you. LinkedIn is the same company that leaked everyone’s passwords. There is absolutely no reason to trust LinkedIn besides mass hysteria. Seriously folks; we can all stop using it and then it will die.
In LinkedIn tradition, I should end this with wild claims and hashtags. #LinkedInKickedMyCat #winning #lackofcreativity #bueller.
You phrased something very poorly. Someone replied and you moved the goalposts; claiming that you were actually referring to the majority using a concept. And now you’ve moved the goalposts again.
I don’t know why you’re doing backflips to avoid admitting that you were wrong.
I wasn't wrong - the first time the concept was named in a decision was in the Biden administration. It sounds like you're not actually reading any of these, or aware of this issue?
I do agree that the idea that some agency actions should be used appeared in the case OP cited. But it's obvious that SCOTUS is using this concept much more broadly now.
Of course you don’t think you’re wrong. It’s obvious that you can’t admit you’re wrong - that was the point of my reply. The point was that you’re doing linguistic backflips and changing the subject to avoid admitting you’re wrong. And you’re still doing it.
A lot of people are capable of seeing through you.
If they’re operating under a different definition of supply chain risk, I don’t have a clue.
