THE VALLEY CURRENT®️ COMPUTERLAW GROUP LLP ·

2024/03/08

Between the many lawsuits of Donald Trump and Elon Musk, its hard to remember if there has ever been so much news regarding state or federal litigation. The Supreme Court unsurprisingly ruled that Colorado could not remove Donald Trump from the presidential ballot as we cannot have 50 states doing 50 different things in an otherwise very binary election. What people did not predict was a unanimous decision which also objected to reasoning that only Congress can address electoral college issues. Can

The computer has come a long way since the 1970’s when we programmed on mainframes. Back then it was obvious that something better would come around, but did we really think computer use would become so prevalent? Today computers and the internet are used everywhere. From stores to banks, we use them to do everything from ordering food to sending our friends money after they pick up the tab. Unfortunately, criminals also know how to use and abuse computers. Not only do countries hack each other for

2024/03/01

Can a company’s potential only be as good as its culture? A lot goes on in a workplace between hiring and firing and what happens in that company is fundamental for attracting top quality talent. One thing that has become clear since the pandemic is that companies can no longer push employees back into the office. This alone has presented a new set of obstacles as in-person interactions are still highly valuable in the workplace and younger generations may suffer from the lack of socialization and

What do current college students studying product design and entrepreneurship see as to their future lifespans, healthspans, and workspans? Is it really that crazy to think that living to 100 years old and being healthy through it is a realistic probability for society’s youngest members? Though none of us can predict the future, we can safely assume that our health span and life span will increase alongside modern medicines advancements. As awesome as a longer health and lifespan sounds, a life

The Valley Current®: Is Trump Further Dividing the USA?

THE VALLEY CURRENT®️ COMPUTERLAW GROUP LLP ·

2024/02/26

Have the two parties of the United States ever been further apart? Collaboration and cooperation rank low on congress’ to-do list facing another election year. Despite multiple impeachments, lawsuits, and inflammatory statements, Donald Trump remains the Republican favorite to run against Joe Biden. Much of Trump’s appeal seems to be rooted in his anti-establishment views and has capitalized on congress’ history of not tackling issues. The Republican party is fractionalizing at an increasing rate

2024/02/23

Is there any factor more important to evolution than forward-looking collaboration? Whether it’s family, society, business, or politics, leaders are needed to bring people together and inspire them to work towards a single goal. However, there is one major drawback to mass collaboration – and it hurts those with the most power. The more information and resources a CEO shares (especially in a knowledge worker environment), the more his or her power is diminished. On the other hand, keeping

It doesn’t matter if you work for a boutique company or the biggest, most well-known global organization, when the numbers don’t add up, the unfortunate answer could be embezzlement. Over in New Jersey, John Dunlea and his wife Nicole Alexander were charged with embezzling more than $1.5M from the McElroy, Deutsch, Mulvaney & Carpenter law firm over the last 5 years where they both held financial roles. The couples’ scheme was found to be guilty of failure to pay taxes and theft by deception in

The GOP are narrowing in on this year’s presidential candidate, and former President Donald Trump has been the loudest frontrunner from the beginning. As popular as Trump has been, his official nomination has yet to be finalized – and no one is sure if Trump can legitimately run. After initially denying to hear a case regarding insurrection as grounds to invalidate Trump from running, SCOTUS is now being pushed to rule on the matter after Trump urged them to repeal Colorado’s decision for violating

We’ve all been there. The holiday has passed and even though you’ve opened your gifts, you’re still browsing the web for things you’ll buy next month… but why wait for the new year? If there’s business equipment out there that you’ll use, it might make sense to buy it now and snag the tax deduction for 2023. Another thing you’ll want to consider is deferring capital gains by moving them to a qualified opportunity zone fund. Get your taxes in order now while you still have a few days left! Host

The Valley Current®: Creativity and the Creative Act

2023/12/27

Put the work first, yourself second and the audience last. It may sound counter intuitive for aspiring artists looking to make money, but this basic philosophy goes beyond paint. This philosophy reflects a lifestyle that can be applied anywhere people can be creative. Creativity requires a strong, passionate mindset, a honed skillset, and the right set of tools to bring them all together. Creativity happens in the wildest of places, and when they do, you better be ready to capture them before it

Self-care, both mental and physical, is something that takes greater priority in our lives as we age. Leading a healthy lifestyle with lots of exercise as a primary medical plan was highly advocated by the late Dr. Walter Bortz, but host Jack Russo wants everyone to live a self-fulfilling Hundred Healthy Years. With some help from Dr. Leonard Hayflick to understand what causes aging and what affects a person’s longevity, Jack heads to Stanford to emphasize the value of optimizing your health,

Once feared by real estate professionals, handling your next home transaction online is simply the way of the future, and it can’t come fast enough. Could AI be the next major innovation to disrupt the real estate market? The folks at Zillow seem to think so and they’ve got a few AI tools designed to help buyers, renters, agents and loan officers. Everything from providing better recommendations during the shopping process to ballparking what the true value of a property is. Host Jack Russo and Joe

We’ve witnessed unprecedented levels of innovation in the AI world over the last couple of years. Though AI has existed at low levels for decades now, it has gone from being an underperforming pipe dream to an everyday tool already embedded in most of our software and apps within months. If you’re wondering how this happened, you can thank venture capitalists like Ray Wu, who have been funding the AI startups that brought us these rapid advancements. So, what’s next for artificial intelligence? If

Anyone who has looked into how movies are made knows that the plot doesn’t really begin to take shape until the storyboarding phase. In law, presenting a case to a jury works similarly, but throwing facts and figures around in the courthouse does not hit the same as a movie. No matter how clear the liability is, the jury understands best when presented with several mini stories that show how someone’s life has been impacted by the damages. To do this, lawyers like our host Jack Russo turn to guys

When Trump overhauled the tax code in 2017, a one-time repatriation tax was enacted on foreign earnings. Like many Americans, the Moores were invested overseas when they received a $15,000 tax bill. Since they reinvested the profit elsewhere and never realized any actual cash, the Moores are fighting the taxes and have taken their battle to the Supreme Court. As a result, the constitutionality of the 16th Amendment is now under attack and could be redefined despite SCOTUS’s reluctance to disrupt

At the end of December, we welcome each new year with wonder and excitement of what things may come. After a rough year of two wars, high interest rates and a stock market that keeps going, 2024 is not receiving the same fanfare as previous years. People are plain irritated about the condition of the world and the feeling of being in constant flux. On the other hand, CEOs have a whole different set of worries, and surprisingly AI and climate change are not topping the list the way they previously

The Valley Current®: Climate in the Chance Age

THE VALLEY CURRENT®️ COMPUTERLAW GROUP LLP ·

2023/12/01

Powerful computer programs are accurately simulating the uncertainty of climate change. These models underlie the growing business of climate risk, which in turn supports mitigation planning and the insurance industry. But climate risk models are usually large monolithic systems, which although internally consistent, cannot export statistically coherent representations of the underlying uncertainties. Because of this, the outputs are often single average risk scores resulting in the Flaw of

The Valley Current®: Climate Change in 9 Minutes

2023/11/29

Climate change is a universal crisis, but the way we assess everything related to this crisis is problematic in itself. By definition, Risk = Likelihood x Impact (or Probability x Liability) which seems to be a straightforward way to measure whether or not you would need something like fire insurance for your home. Today host Jack Russo and Professor Sam Savage discuss why this method of risk assessment is actually horribly flawed in this nutshell version about climate risk. Click here to learn

“It was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness.” This second, lesser-known line from A Tale of Two Cities has never felt more applicable when you read about the two most notable cases currently going on in New York City. Sam Bankman-Fried and Donald Trump are the most recent individuals to go on trial for fraud and though the cases are vastly different, there are a few parallels we can draw to show how they both ended up in court. Both men grew up being idolized by their parents and
