Podcasts about Boilerplate

Software delivery clarity has become one of the most important competitive advantages for engineering organizations. Teams are shipping faster, AI-assisted development is compressing implementation timelines, and traditional project management systems are struggling to keep pace with modern software delivery realities. During the conversation with Alex Polyakov, one idea surfaced repeatedly: most project management systems promise visibility but fail to provide actual operational clarity. Teams still discover delays too late. Executives still receive bad news at the last possible moment. Developers still spend excessive time updating systems rather than building software. That disconnect is exactly what inspired Alex to rethink how engineering organizations manage software delivery. About Alex Polyakov Alex Polyakov is the founder of Project Simple AI, a platform focused on improving transparency and discipline across software delivery workflows. With more than 25 years of experience spanning software engineering, architecture, product management, entrepreneurship, and startup leadership, Alex brings a deeply practical perspective to modern development operations. He has worked as an Application Developer, Senior Engineer, Tech Lead, Software Architect, Solutions Architect, Product Manager, Entrepreneur, and Startup Founder. Today, his focus is helping engineering teams gain visibility and operational discipline without adding unnecessary complexity. Alex also hosts the "Let's Talk Agile" podcast on YouTube, where he discusses modern software development challenges and Agile transformation realities. LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexpolyakov/ Why Software Delivery Clarity Still Doesn't Exist Most organizations believe they have visibility because they use Jira, Azure DevOps, or similar tools. In reality, they have tracking systems, not visibility systems. Alex described modern project management tools as "glorified Excel sheets." That description lands because many engineering teams recognize the pattern immediately. Endless ticket hierarchies, fields, statuses, and sprint rituals often create administrative complexity without improving confidence. The core issue is simple: status updates depend on human behavior. Developers forget to update tickets. Teams delay reporting problems. Managers discover schedule risks only when deadlines are already compromised. The tooling creates an illusion of control while actual delivery risk remains hidden. That creates a dangerous operating environment for leadership. A founder or executive can solve a delivery problem early. They can reduce scope, renegotiate timelines, allocate additional staff, or re-sequence priorities. But once a team waits until the final week to communicate delays, most strategic options disappear. Visibility is not the same thing as documentation. Visibility means understanding delivery risk early enough to respond. Software Delivery Clarity Requires Behavioral Design One of the most interesting concepts from the discussion was the idea that project management is partly behavioral science. Most tools allow teams to skip critical disciplines. Teams can start work before decomposition. They can mark tasks complete without validating outcomes. They can carry partially defined requirements into implementation. Alex's approach flips that model entirely. Instead of giving teams unlimited flexibility, the system enforces operational readiness. Work cannot begin without decomposition. Timelines cannot exist without estimates. Completion cannot happen without verifying a definition of done. This is important because software organizations often assume process problems are communication problems. In reality, many are workflow design problems. If a system permits ambiguity, ambiguity becomes normalized. If a system requires clarity, clarity becomes operational behavior. Why AI Makes Software Delivery Clarity More Important AI-assisted development changes the economics of software delivery. Implementation cycles are shrinking dramatically. Tasks that previously required days may now take hours. Boilerplate code generation, scaffolding, testing support, and architectural suggestions accelerate execution speed. That acceleration creates a new challenge. If implementation becomes faster, bottlenecks move upstream and downstream. Requirements gathering, coordination, prioritization, testing, and validation suddenly become the limiting factors. This means organizations can no longer rely on heavyweight process management structures built for slower delivery cycles. When implementation speeds increase but operational visibility stays static, delivery chaos accelerates instead of improving. The transcript discussion highlighted a critical reality many organizations are only beginning to recognize: AI amplifies existing operational weaknesses. A disorganized engineering team using AI becomes a faster disorganized engineering team. That is why delivery clarity matters more now than it did during earlier Agile transformations. The Simplicity Principle Behind Better Delivery Alex outlined several operational principles that simplify software execution dramatically. Software Delivery Clarity Starts with Prioritization Teams should know exactly what matters most. Priority order should not be vague or political. If only one item can ship, teams must know which item wins. That sounds obvious, but many organizations operate with dozens of simultaneous "critical" initiatives. Clear sequencing eliminates organizational confusion. Software Delivery Clarity Depends on Finishable Work Teams should not start work that they cannot complete. This principle directly attacks excessive work in progress — one of the most common hidden inefficiencies in software organizations. Partially completed work creates coordination overhead, testing delays, context switching, and reporting confusion. Smaller, decomposed work creates measurable progress. Software Delivery Clarity Improves Team Accountability Alex also challenged pre-assigned work structures. When work is individually distributed too early, collaboration weakens. Teams lose shared ownership. Visibility becomes fragmented across individuals instead of remaining centralized around delivery goals. That perspective aligns closely with modern product-oriented engineering cultures where collaboration and flow matter more than rigid task ownership. Before adding new process layers, evaluate whether your current workflow already contains unnecessary coordination overhead. Why Simpler Engineering Systems Scale Better Many organizations assume maturity means adding process. The conversation suggested the opposite. Mature engineering organizations often remove unnecessary friction instead of introducing more operational complexity. Simplicity improves adoption, consistency, and decision-making speed. This becomes especially important in high-growth environments. As teams scale, communication overhead compounds rapidly. Every unnecessary workflow step multiplies across developers, product managers, QA engineers, architects, and leadership stakeholders. Simple systems reduce cognitive load. That reduction creates operational focus. The goal of project management is not to track work forever. The goal is to deliver valuable software predictably. Conclusion Software delivery clarity is not about more dashboards, more ceremonies, or more ticket customization. It is about creating operational confidence. Alex Polyakov's perspective challenges many assumptions that modern engineering organizations accept as normal. Teams do not necessarily need more process. They need better behavioral systems, clearer visibility, stronger prioritization, and simpler operational structures. As AI continues accelerating implementation speed, organizations that simplify coordination and improve transparency will gain a meaningful competitive advantage. The future of software delivery may not belong to the teams with the most process sophistication. It may belong to the teams with the clearest operational discipline.

In this episode, Stuart Riback interviews John Coyle, UNC Law School, on the reasons to have a choice of forum clause; how the wording of clause will determine its scope; any restrictions on applicability of applicability of the clause; permissive versus mandatory forum selection; application of forum selection clauses to non-parties; and issues regarding constitutionality of non-party application.

On this episode of Possible, Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger sit down with Amjad Masad, founder and CEO of Replit, to explore how AI is fundamentally changing who gets to build software and what that means for work, creativity, and human agency. Masad traces his journey from growing up in Jordan teaching himself to code and connects it to his love of video games which helped inspire him to build a platform that turns natural language into working software. The conversation spans everything from why gaming mindsets make better builders, to how CEOs are rediscovering hands-on creation, to why “vibe coding” is the next form of literacy and why computational thinking is more important than syntax mastery. The conversation also digs into the future of AI agents, long-running autonomous workflows, and what it means to design environments for machines rather than humans. They also confront harder questions about jobs, fear, regulation, and society's responsibility during a cognitive industrial revolution. The episode ultimately reframes AI not as a replacement for human creativity, but as a force that can return people to a more entrepreneurial, expressive, and meaningful way of life.

On January 4 of this year, we released a podcast show entitled; “A look at a new approach to consumer contracts”. Our special guest at that time was Professor Andrea Boyack, a Professor at the University of Missouri School of Law. That podcast was based on a then recent law review article published by Professor Boyack entitled “The Shape of Consumer Contracts, 101 Denv L. Rev. 1 (2023). Today, we are joined again by Professor Boyack who has written a follow-up article entitled: “Abuse of Contract: Boilerplate Erasure of Consumer Counterparty Rights,” University of Missouri School of Law Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2024-03, which is the subject of our new show. The abstract of her article accurately describes the points that Professor Boyack made during the podcast show: Contract law and the new Restatement of the Law of Consumer Contracts generally treats the entirety of the company's boilerplate as presumptively binding. Entrusting the content of consumer contracts to companies creates a fertile legal habitat for abuse through boilerplate design. There is no consensus on how widespread or severe abuse of contract is. Some consumer law scholars have warned of dangers inherent in granting companies unrestrained power to sneak waivers into their online terms, but others contend that market forces adequately constrain potential abuse. On the other hand, in the absence of adequate consumer knowledge and power, market competition might instead fuel the spread of abusive boilerplate provisions as companies compete to insulate themselves from costs. The new Restatement and several prominent scholars claim that existing protective judicial doctrines siphon off the worst abuses among adhesive contracts. They are willing to accept those abuses that slip through the cracks as the unavoidable cost of a functioning, modern economy. The raging debate over how to best constrain contractual abuse relies mainly on speculation regarding the proliferation and extent of sneak-in waivers. This article provides some necessary missing data by examining the author's study of 100 companies' online terms and conditions (the T&C Study). The T&C Study tracked the extent to which the surveyed companies' boilerplate purported to erase consumer default rights within four different categories, thereby helping to assess the effectiveness of existing market and judicial constraints on company overreach. Evidence from the T&C Study shows that the overwhelming majority of consumer contracts contain multiple categories of abusive terms. The existing uniformity of boilerplate waivers undermines the theory that competition and reputation currently act as effective bulwarks against abuse. After explaining and discussing the T&C Study and its results, this article suggests how such data can assist scholars and advocates in more effectively protecting and empowering consumers. We also discuss two separate CFPB initiatives pertaining to consumer contracts. On June 4 of this year, the CFPB issued Circular 2024-03 (“Circular”) warning that the use of unlawful or unenforceable terms and conditions in contracts for consumer financial products or services may violate the prohibition on deceptive acts or practices in the Consumer Financial Protection Act. We previously drafted a blog post and Law360 article about this circular. The CFPB has also issued a proposed rule to establish a system for the registration of nonbanks subject to CFPB supervision that use “certain terms or conditions that seek to waive consumer rights or other legal protections or limit the ability of consumers to enforce their rights.” Arbitration provisions are among the terms that would trigger registration. The CFPB has not yet finalized this proposed rule and it seems likely that it will never be finalized in light of its very controversial nature and the fact that Director Chopra will be replaced on January 20 with a new Acting Director. Alan Kaplinsky, the former Chair of Ballard Spahr's Consumer Financial Services Group for 25 years and now Senior Counsel, hosts this episode.

Summary: Welcome back to The Contract Playbook! This season, we're diving deep into the so-called “boilerplate” provisions found in nearly every contract. These aren't just filler terms—they're crucial clauses that shape the deal and impact your clients. Join host Casey Handy-Smith, an experienced Entertainment and IP attorney, as she debunks the myth of the boilerplate and explains why these terms should never be ignored. In this episode, we set the stage for the season by tackling common misconceptions about boilerplate clauses and why it's essential to negotiate them. We discuss why brands may resist changes to these provisions and how to approach these negotiations without feeling discouraged. Key Takeaways: The Myth of the Boilerplate: Boilerplate provisions are often misunderstood as standard and unchangeable, but each clause has the potential to affect your deal significantly. Why Brands Resist Change: Brands prefer to stick with their templates to avoid disrupting their processes, but this doesn't mean you shouldn't ask for changes. A brand's unwillingness to negotiate these terms isn't a reflection on your abilities as a negotiator. The Danger of Vague Language: Vague clauses are risky and open the door to misinterpretation. Never settle for unclear terms. Listen to a story about how a simple clarification on an indemnification clause helped one of our members limit their creator's liability. Asking the Right Questions: Understand the stakes and potential risks for your client by asking key questions about the purpose of each clause. Legal support is invaluable for identifying these risks and negotiating stronger contracts.

Conceptual papers that offer new theories are hard to write and even harder to publish. You do not have empirical data to back up your arguments, which makes the papers easy to reject in the review cycle. We are also typically not well trained in theorizing, and there isn't even a clear process to theorizing we could learn or follow. Does that mean that we shouldn't even try to write theory papers? We ponder these questions, figure out what is so hard in writing conceptual papers – and share a few tricks that might help if you still wanted to write such a paper.  References Berente, N., Gu, B., Recker, J., & Santhanam, R.

Sharing is caring, right? I believe that commercial-scale precision fermentation facilities will be like data centers, which eventually became ubiquitous. And, like data centers, these commercial-scale precision fermentation facilities could one day be relied upon to make a vast array of vital products. But that future might hinge on how open or closed this food technology eventually becomes. Most precision fermentation startups are heavily funded by tech billionaires and venture capitalists. Why? Boilerplate “fight climate change” answers might be used publicly, but it's about betting on the potentially enormous upside that comes with market domination of whole commodity groups and categories. But it's those massive private investments that subsidize early deals that help overcome consumer adoption challenges around price. So, the debate over open-source food tech research is “complicated” and I'm sure global regulatory agencies will make it worse soon.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 22, 2023 is: boilerplate • BOY-ler-playt • noun Boilerplate is a noun that refers to standard or formulaic language, a meaning that comes from an earlier meaning still in use: syndicated material supplied to newspapers in matrix or plate form. Boilerplate can also refer to tightly packed snow. // The last paragraph of the contract was legal boilerplate. See the entry > Examples: "For years, the trolley driver has been putting his own spin on the T's boilerplate announcements, playing with cadence and pitch, recommending his favorite anime, and cheering on Boston sports teams." — Daniel Kool, The Boston Globe, 15 Sept. 2023 Did you know? In the days before computers, small newspapers around the U.S. relied heavily on feature stories, editorials, and other printed material supplied by large publishing syndicates. The syndicates delivered that copy on metal plates with the type already in place so the local papers wouldn't have to set it. Printers apparently dubbed those syndicated plates "boiler plates" because of their resemblance to the plating used in making steam boilers. Soon boilerplate came to refer to the printed material on the plates as well as to the plates themselves. Because boilerplate stories were often more filler—material used to fill extra space in a column or page of a newspaper to increase its size—than important or informative news, the word acquired negative connotations and gained the "standardized or formulaic language" sense widely used today.

Look, as a creative running a business, you already have 1001 things to do. What you don't need to be spending your time doing is re-writing the same thing 100 times when it's not necessary. But we often do. We have to apply for something and find ourselves trying to come up with a bio that makes us sound amazing for the millionth time. Or we go away and have to slap together an out of office message that magically directs people to the right places at the last minute. Or we get an Instagram DM from someone asking a question that we've answered before but never saved so we're typing it out letter by letter because we're a lovely person.It's tiring work but it has to be done, right?!Yes, but it can be done differently.

Some writing is unusual and creative, but that is not boilerplate. Find out what this word means on this week's Words and Their Stories.

Welcome back to Business Unfiltered with Mercer and Jeff Sauer today's topic is Contracts How and Where Do You Use Them 0:00: What is a contract and why is it important? Jeff defines a contract as a formal agreement between two entities, people, companies or whatever you want to call it. 1:56: Using contracts as a sales tool. A contract is useful in the beginning, because when things go poorly, emotions creep in and the contract is written at a different time when everybody is in a different emotional state. A course has terms and conditions and terms of sale, which are how they expect to use it. The difference between a proposal and a contract, and why a contract should not be mixed in with marketing, because marketing is in sales and always sells it short. How a contract is formalizing all the things that are discussed in the intro. 6:15: The difference between a pitch proposal and a contract proposal. The first step to onboarding as an actual client is the contracts, where you see more of that legal side of the proposal. A master services agreement is an agreement between two companies. It's more work upfront, but easier to do because it's never boilerplate. The master services agreement is an add-on to the existing relationship between the two companies. It allows you to get your next contract approved sooner. Using the master service agreement with exhibits can be a strategy for stickiness with the clients. 10:00: How often an attorney would be involved in creating contracts, and whether or not to use an attorney. The risk of using a template for free from the internet, and the bigger implications and challenges that come along with it. It is almost always money well spent. It's almost always what should be done because you can reuse them, that's the idea. Jeff has never litigated a client, or even gotten close to that. He has never had to enforce anything, regardless of the client. Risk vs reward. Litigation is expensive, and lawsuits usually have to go to court based on spite or a lot to lose. Pricing mistakes are almost always because of the rose colored glasses, and that's why he had to develop his own method for pricing. 16:07: How do you use google analytics prior to litigation? The importance of having a spidey sense of who the best clients are to take, and how to fix things when things start to go weird with a client. How to use contracts as a tool prior to litigation, barring the litigation. If the contract was written wrong, shame on you. Don't let it happen again. For any one service that you sell, you can break it down into anywhere between four and 10 sub services that go into it, based on the roughly on one page. 20:30: The problem with auditing goals. Jeff had to do a bunch of implementation work that he thought he was going to get paid extra to do because of the way he wrote the contract. Jeff is grateful for the first customer, and thinks that it is important to give a minimum, but right away you go that's a mistake. The statement of work is a little more nebulous, because they're saying they're going to regard it as an implementation. The retention model is almost a built-in sound, so if it's a little bit too nebulous and they're asking for things that are slightly outside of scope, they're okay with it. 25:15: How to use contracts better. Most contracts are basic and have very little changes. There are only a few minor changes that are seen in the back and forth. The biggest problem for Jeff is not being able to get paid when he thinks he did the work. A lot of it is just in the services provided and who he chooses to work with. 28:59: The importance of contracts. There is no way around the fact that the contract is legal, but it is also a boilerplate template. It looks like every other contract that everyone else has already seen. The worst thing is when the client comes to you and asks what is in the contract. Jeff shares his thoughts on contracts and how they can be used for business valuation. Jeff shares that the more that he teaches someone else, the more people are learning about contracts and what they can learn from him and the podcast.

In this episode, we will be talking to Brian Magrann, the co-founder of Boilerplate.co. Originally from Philadelphia suburbs and went to Penn State, Brian started his career as an auditor and then got to work in a federal government where he did consulting. He eventually worked in a start-up distribution type of company where he identified a pain point related to tracking documentation requests.I love how he went from being a process improvement consultant to founding a software company which focuses on customers. Tune in to learn more about Brian's journey and how he became a successful entrepreneur!Guest Info:Boilerplate's website:https://www.boilerplate.co/Brian's LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/bmagrann/Connect with Jay on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jayaigner/The First Customer Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@thefirstcustomerpodcastThe First Customer podcast websitehttps://www.firstcustomerpodcast.comFollow The First Customer on LinkedInhttp://www.linkedin.com/company/the-first-customer-podcast/

Episode 40 starts with a brief follow-up on our reports about the growing controversy surrounding a court judgement assessing the city a $5M liability to Gem Equities in the Parker Lands dispute, and a complaint to the Integrity commissioner about the role played by Coun. John Orlikow in the wrongdoing: There's 101 Reasons Why Winnipeg Council Must Review Orlikow's Role In $5M Court Ruling Coun. Eadie Defends Orlikow After Integrity Commissioner Asked To Investigate Next, our investigation continues into the fight faced by residents, home owners and businesses in Point Douglas to get any relief from the rampant public disorder connected to the entrenchment of homeless camps in the area. You'll hear behind the scenes details of a terse reply a homeowner in South Point Douglas gave to a letter from a Manitoba Public Safety director- "Boilerplate responses are not action." After the DoJ official got taken to task for sidestepping responsibility for resident safety, a small but appreciated enforcement action was taken by police about 48 hours later and we have eyewitness accounts. Cause and effect? Hard to say, but it's easy to say that the TGCTS coverage of brought CBC to the table. Marty Gold reviews their report about the homeless encampments and the comments of a community leader. The current situation of intimidation, violence, fear, theft, vandalism, and murder, flows from a failed hands-off approach by the City of Winnipeg that started under former Mayor, Brian Bowman. "The disruption in lives and society is huge and I don't see it getting better." Listen carefully to what was said about the current Mayor and the area councilor who went on a tour of the problem area and offered no action. Marty describes the proof City Hall has failed the property owners and citizens of Point Douglas: the current-day experience of anxious days and sleepless nights caused by garbage, filth and round the clock criminal activity. How much did it cost to replace an industrial air conditioner unit after Pt. Douglas vagrants climbed the roof to steal the copper? It's unacceptable. TGCTS will continue to shine a spotlight on the crime and abuse that is causing residents to sell off their homes and flee.

Recorded at Metatopia 2021 Presented by Eric Whalen. Lawyers secretly know that you do not read the big chunks of standardized text in your contract that have nothing to do with your obligations and how much you are getting paid / paying (called "boilerplate" text). Worse - many lawyers forget to read the boilerplate in their own contracts! Whether you love or hate these reader-unfriendly text walls, join the panelist as he reminds us to intellectually grapple with the important provisions everyone has likely agreed to, but may never have read or fully understood until now. Chatters will be encouraged to link their own boilerplate samples so that panelists may demonstrate how to dissect organic boilerplate specimen live.

People ask what it means to be rebellious about wellness, health, and aging. This shortie will answer that in part.Boiler plate medicine is one-size-fits-all diagnosing and prescribing and it makes me nuts. True, some aspects of being a woman or a man line up, like stress is bad for us and junk food in abundance causes inflammation and a host of other ills. Most every other aspect of health must be filtered by, at the least, gender, age, lifestyle habits, and genetics. (Yeah, that's me who used to say genes are not destiny. I still believe that, but new science has me expand on that idea. They are still only a blueprint waiting for a builder, (that would be you and me) but the more we know about our genetic profile the stronger we can build our house. That's not the focus of this episode, but if you want to hear about the latest science of using genes for better mental and physical health, here's an episode on that.What I hope you'll take away is that every recommendation for a prescription or procedure that you get from a western trained doc isn't necessarily what you need and might in fact be harmful over time.This shortie is about encouraging you to get educated before you say Yes to a drug—especially if it's something you'll have to be on for life.I'm also hoping to give you a dose of courage to question, why this drug? What are the side effects? Is there an alternative? Something I can do?Here are a few things I referenced:Cholesterol, Statins and Women Part 1Cholesterol, Statins, and Women Part 2The Power of 5 Assessment Are your lifestyle habits going to give you the long healthy active life you want?

Have you heard the exciting news?! The Legal Paige now has contracts available for Canadians! If you are a Canadian entrepreneur, TLP can now help you get legally legit. In this episode of The Legal Paige podcast, I introduce the attorney we brought on board to help make Canadian Contracts come to life. Courtney is a Canadian lawyer with a general practice based in rural Saskatchewan. The bulk of her work as a lawyer is focused on corporate law, real estate, and wills and estate administration. She is a wife, mother to a new baby born early this year, and lives on a mixed grain and cattle farm!The Canadian Catalog would NEVER have been able to happen without the help of our gal Courtney and I know you'll enjoy this episode as we dive into all the important differences between Canadian and US law. THE BIG DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE CANADIAN + US LEGAL SYSTEM There are a lot of similarities in the US and Canadian legal system– but the biggest difference between our two country's contracts lies in the boilerplate clauses. (Boilerplate clauses are those legal-language-heavy clauses that are found at the bottom of your contract). This is because the Canadian courts have been really clear about HOW they are going to interpret contract clauses when there is a dispute…so Canadians need to be especially careful with the wording to make sure the meaning is clear to everyone involved. Another huge difference between the two jurisdictions is the type of damages that will be awarded. Canadian courts rarely offer high rewards for damages in any case- whether that's a contract dispute or otherwise. The only way you'll see a high reward is if there was malicious conduct or highly reprehensible behavior (which is rare and hard to prove). Canadian courts DO often offer awards on cost to the winning party– if you go to trial with somebody in a contract dispute and you win, the other party might be ordered to pay your legal costs up to that point. If you're going all the way to trial you are spending upwards of $50,000 in legal fees so it's really important for Canadian business owners to be aware of that and to have their bases covered with strong legal contracts. MORE FROM THIS EPISODE Press play on Episode 141 listen as we dive deep into the nuances between Canadian and US law. You'll learn how Canadians should approach Website Terms and Conditions, the differences between copyright law (i.e. the surprising person that actually owns a photograph in Canada), how Canadians should register their businesses, employment laws to be aware of, how the Canadian Courts have handled Covid and service based contracts like ours, and Courtney's best tips for Canadian business owners. The Legal Paige is so excited to now have Canadian Contracts available in the shop! Courtney has been a major piece in getting our Canadian Catalog set up and is working through converting all of our TLP Products to living Canadian documents. The biggest takeaway I have for Canadian entrepreneurs- and really all entrepreneurs-  is that NOW is the time to get legally legit. Now is the time to get protected. Now is the time to not shove things under the rug to deal with on another day. Your contracts are so important for your business– they are living documents that shift and grow as your business changes and they set the tone in your working relationship with clients. We are gearing up for our biggest sale of the year in just a few short weeks and I don't want you to miss it. We're talking major discounts in our entire contract shop!

In this episode the panel talks to Robert Ellen and his experience with using macros in Elixir to get rid of some repetitive boilerplate code. They discuss common pitfalls when first diving into macros and resources which help to avoid these mistakes. Robert shares some of the finer details of the challenges they encountered when trying to build these macros and the panel gives their own personal verdict on the age old elixir question: to macro or not to macro. Finally the group briefly touches on some event sourcing topics - as the system Robert refers to was an event-sourced one.

We're almost at the end of this series on contracts! Today, I'm focusing on some of the most common boilerplate contract clauses. If you've reviewed a contract in the past, you may have seen and skimmed through or skipped over them. Despite their commonality, you need to understand what these clauses mean and how they can impact your agreement. When I talk about boilerplate clauses, I'm generally referencing the clauses that seem fairly standard in most agreements. Typically, you'll find them towards the end of the contract.  In this episode, I focus on the clauses often found in service-based business agreements. I review what each clause means and give you some sample language to help you recognize it. Please subscribe if you haven't already. And if you like the show, I'd love it if you'd give it a review wherever you listen to podcasts!   In this episode: [02:49] - Danielle defines the confusing concept of indemnity provisions. [03:59] - What do you need to look at when reviewing an indemnity provision? [04:13] - Danielle discusses disclaimer of warranties. [04:57] - What are choice-of-law and jurisdiction clauses? [05:45] - Agreements may include a clause regarding dispute resolution such as mediation or arbitration. [07:32] - Assignment clauses state whether or not the parties may assign their rights under the contract to another party. [08:20] - In many contracts, written notice to the other party is a common requirement. But how do you give notice? [09:21] - Danielle talks about unenforceability clauses. [09:54] - With survival clauses, certain provisions should survive after the termination of the agreement like confidentiality or intellectual property rights. [10:25] - Some survival clauses list specific paragraph numbers. If you're doing this, watch out for this common mistake before signing. [11:00] - What does a waiver clause typically state? [11:32] - Each party can sign an agreement separately if it includes a counterpart clause. [12:09] - Single agreement clauses state that the agreement supersedes any past agreements between the parties. [13:05] - Danielle offers some fairly simple action steps.   Links & Resources: Businessese Businessese on Facebook Businessese on Instagram Liss Legal Liss Legal on Instagram
