“You will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless…”
Indemnify = “I’m going to pay for whatever comes up from this fuckup.”
Defend = “I’m going to hire/pay an attorney to defend you from this fuckup.”
Hold harmless = “Unclear but probably helpful to have if there is a fuckup.”

Ok but where do I get that hat
"A California federal judge ordered Meta on Tuesday to rereview privilege designations on 300 documents in social media addiction litigation, after plaintiffs' lawyers cited a 'culture of privilege abuse' epitomized by Instagram swag hats embroidered with 'a/c priv'"

Nobody reads the employee handbook.
I proved it.
Last month I added one sentence on page 73:
“First employee to email HR this sentence gets $1,000.”
Thirty days passed.
Yesterday an analyst finally found it.
I congratulated him and paid the $1,000 immediately.
Then I terminated him.
People don’t randomly read employee handbooks.
They read them when they’re looking for leverage.
$1,000 is a very reasonable price to identify your next lawsuit.

I know people who spent $12k in tokens and built nothing.
@Westpac spent $12k in tokens on @AmpCode and built a new intranet for their 35,000 employees (vs. ~$3–5M pre-AI cost).
"Amp is unlocking a huge amount of value in engineering" from itnews.com.au/news/westpac-s…

I'm biased, but all these young lawyers (under 5 years) leaving biglaw to start AI native law firms seems to miss the point.
if I were a client, I don't need commodified legal work. I need judgement and many of these lawyers don't even have their training wheels off yet.
