In Let’s not be like the lawyers (Let’s not attack the example), I responded to what I thought was a deflection in the responses to Noam Scheiber‘s article, The Last Days of Big Law. At the bottom of that post I have a collection of “read these” articles that I keep updating. Here’s that list if you’ve missed it:
