Sinteres posted:I'd be surprised. Chuck still needs somebody to visit and take care of him, and graduating from a tinfoil suit liner to a tinfoil house is a pretty good way of showing his law firm he's not in any position to be doing any work there. On top of that, it provides Jimmy with a lot more ammunition if he ever does decide to have Chuck committed. He's crazy, not stupid. Tinfoil house was a ruse.

While Chuck is definitely smart uh he kind of has no self awareness. he made every employee in the building put their phones and watches in a tray whenever he'd come in.

Xoidanor posted:Tinfoil house was a ruse. No, i don't believe it was a ruse. His logic was correct, the plaster wouldnt block out electromagetic waves. I'm actually surprised he didn't put up chicken wire around his room for a true faraday cage, but he probably didn't have any handy. Now, what drove him to this? Its obvious what he really has is a fear of going outside and seeing the real world. The law is safe for him, its logical, its a known entity, and he's good at it. The outside world is chaotic and unpredictable, which scares him. I'm guessing the final trigger was his wife. Either she died, or she left him and that drove him over the edge.

As someone who has passed a bar exam, you would have a pretty good shot at it in a lot of states just from one of those summer-long bar prep courses even if you never went to law school.

There's plenty of stuff on the bar like secured transactions, family law, etc. that I never took a class for and just learned through Barbri (plus poo poo like property law that I forgot 90% of after the class). MA may just have a hard bar exam, I know states like NY and CA are known to be especially tough.

Google tells me that a handful of states allow you to do a sort of apprenticeship at a law firm as a pre requisite for the bar exam but the details vary.

Something to do with the legal definition of a check? Barbri may be a terrible monopoly, but it's a good cramming solution.

Typically has a duration under 30 days. Huge market for it and it gets traded a lot. Most money market mutual funds trade in commercial paper since its really safe but has a low return.

Some shows on Netflix will have episodes added as they air, rather than in full-season blocks. Netflix never does it with their own shows, but they sometimes will do it with shows from other networks. I think BCS works like that for UK viewers.

Netflix does it for shows that aren't normally distributed in whatever market.

It's odd that it's not all over Netflix US when Netflix made BB and BCS popular in every other territory. Both shows are pretty much synonymous with Netflix in the UK.

Yeah, it's not because of Netflix, but AMC. I'm not saying it's going on here, but I hear a lot of people bitching about Netflix availability, and they don't realize that if Netflix had their way, all items in the catalogue would be available worldwide.
