Hi, I was wondering if the star was always the size it currently is? Could the sun have been more powerful in the past and have blasted away the atmospheres of these planets in the past?

As far as I've heard, that is the consensus. Some fields require them, others shrug.

Have you ever considered the impact of malpractice liability, insurance costs, & bar sanctions as a deterrence to smaller more affordable legal services? I've always hypothesized that big law viability rests on an "bar of entry" for smaller and individual firms offering broad general services. Big law survives based on an oligarchy of sorts.

Noam, Great Article.

I'm a recent law grad taking a brief, twitter induced break at bar studying to read your article and participate in this AMA.

I wanted to get your opinion on LL.m degrees and their appeal at bigger firms. Smart move or doubling down on a bad bet?

P.S: any niche writing spots in Foggy Bottom? Jumping to DC in the fall to do an IP LL.m at George Washington.
