Ha! (I realize this is probably A Thing That People Know, but I did not!)
Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
oh yeah, we went to a Pompeii exhibit in museum down here when I was growing up. It must have been a big deal traveling exhibit, but all the phallic statues were startling to elementary school-aged me.
Cool origami street art and check out this amazing work from a Vietnamese origami artist.
Need some lawyer-related business advice, if you're willing.
At my past company, every regulatory submission I created had the application number, "CONFIDENTIAL" and the page n of x stamped at the bottom (in a row across). It was standard, and we did it across all documents.
At current job, boss says that to stamp "confidential" on the bottom of a page that already has "confidential" on it elsewhere actually degrades the strength of the implied confidentiality. So instead of using my page stamper on the entire (sometimes hundreds of pages!)document, I have to painstakingly go through the entire doc and only stamp "confidential" on the pages without that word already somewhere on the page.
So, this seems silly to me. Is it true that the "confidential" more than once degrades the concept? I'd love to know if this is a myth she heard somewhere or if it's true.
You have a stamp with the page number???

It seems silly to me too.
Sophia, I use a software program with a stamping tool - sorry I wasn't clearer on that.
That is extremely dumb. Two confidentials make a non-confidential? Where it's completely common to stamp every page confidential? WTF?
ETA: like what court/regulator is going to say, "well, this page says it's confidential, but this stamp also indicates it's confidential, so clearly the intention was to disclose this page exclusively."
Is Gmail being wonky for anyone else or am I just in the office corner with crappy wifi?
It's good for me.
