    Orlando!

      We made it back Tuesday night. We enjoyed our stay in Orlando, spent some time at Sea World, Epcot and the Kennedy Space Center, met up with Kevin and Merrin Donahue for some delish Cuban food, took a whole lot of pictures, got rained on pretty heavily, and generally enjoyed some time away from…

    Magic Databases

    I enjoyed reading this case review from Josh Gilliland about a ruling in regards to production of data from a database. As it turns out, the information being asked for from the database, wasn’t actually tracked in the database. As Josh says: However, there is a bigger issue: A database contains only what data it…

  • BartPE

    Today’s column by Fred Langa is the second recent reference I’ve seen to BartPE: Bart’s PE Builder helps you build a “BartPE” (Bart Preinstalled Environment) bootable Windows CD-Rom or DVD from the original Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 installation/setup CD, very suitable for PC maintenance tasks.

    Linked – Employees who open up about depression are more productive, research finds

    This makes sense. It’s easier to be productive in an environment that feels safe and comfortable, as opposed to one in which we are always on edge and hiding, right? “Our research shows that where employers create a culture of avoidance around talking about depression, employees themselves end up avoiding work and even when they…

    Linked: Lesser Included Emails in Threads Must Be Produced, Court Rules

    Essentially, if you’re not familiar with email threading, the idea is that if a group of people is sending emails back and forth by hitting the Reply button, and the previous email is copied into the body of the previous email, you don’t really have to read each individual email. At some point, later emails have the entire conversation in them. This means that it’s not necessary to read the “lesser included emails” because you already read them as part of the thread. But, the problem Judge Aaron describes is that while the text is there at the end of thread messages, you’re missing important metadata that is unique to the individual message.

    As I said, having worked with Teams messages often I have seen this, where a transcript doesn’t have all of the message metadata, especially the time/dates of each message versus the beginning or end of the chat. If you’re creating those transcripts and not including each message in your production, you might be running afoul of your production requirements.

    But, as I said, IANAL, so don’t take my word for it, do your own testing.
