[TOOL] The Big Blue Law Book, all resolutions in one pdf

[Bakhton]

OOC: Hi, so I don't mean to self promote but it took me awhile to complete this compendium and I find it highly useful in searching for relevant resolutions for precedent, as you can use the search feature to find keywords and topics you're looking for. I'm not sure if something like this already exists all in one document, so I decided to make it. You can download it and use it if you wish to.

I'm well aware of the thread's existence. This is for those that might want a full document.

Ooc: this is fantastic, Bahkton, thank you!

:/ A lot of them are improperly numbered because the numbering is kept in the HTML rather than the text itself. Also, stylistic stuff. Certainly impressive. I think the best way to do something like this, however, would be writing a program which scrapes the forum pages and looks at the post contents, then places them into the relevant pages. Someone along the lines of Apache POI would be useful.

I'll look into it. I can always reformat and update.

Your welcome!

I must say that this doesn't do anything that the passed resolutions thread doesn't already do better, but it's still impressive.

Sure it does: it lets you access the laws offline.

...for which you still need a computer or smartphone, so don't really see how it differs from reading them online from the forums.

EDIT: Btw, your lawyerized siggy made me giggle.

In case it gets lost to all eternity, which it probably will be in about a week:

Wishing you a Merry, but without any assumption of liability or privity on our part, Christmas and a happy New Year twelve (12) months heretofore! The involved parties intend this to be a draft, and not the final representation of the agreed upon terms.

I dunno about you guys, but my internet is spotty, so having an offline version helps. I always have a computer or phone on me, despite not getting on well with technology.

Whats the fun in a signature joke when you don't change it up? Otherwise it gets old.

Ah, well, in that case... you really need a better ISP.

Wait, this wasn't just some RP thing? I'm impressed.

I made it for my own convenience then decided, "hey why not upload it if anyone else wants it"

[The Interstellar Federation]

I do have to say, brilliant job.

And my employers have blocked me from access to both Nationstates itself & these forums via their network, even during my lunch hours & tea-breaks (in case I don't log out promptly enough when those breaks officially finish ), so this would make it easier for me to check passed resolutions' details...

OOC: It highly amuses me that they'd need to block you from NS especially...

Why isn't it blue? I feel like the title page should be blue...




Other than that, I think it's great! I'm not sure how you'll upkeep it, but it's very cool.

I'd have to look into how to do that. Every time a new resolution is passed I'll update the OP with an updated pdf.

First of all, the book is missing all of the repealed resolutions, which I believe to be a hindrance to the "all resolutions in one pdf" promise.

Secondly, it would be better if there were spaces in between the lines and resolutions.

Third, it would possibly be more helpful if the author's name was included.

In conclusion, I think it needs some work in formatting. But it is very impressive.

First of all, the book is missing all of the repealed resolutions, which I believe to be a hindrance to the "all resolutions in one pdf" promise.

That stems from my original intent on making it for reviewing judicial precedent. If included repealed resolutions I bet it would be around 70-120 pages longer.

Please DO NOT include the repealed resolutions. I've been wanting a list of only active resolutions for a while, but never got around to making it myself. I kinda got halfway through it one time.

Gotcha, I can always make multiple versions if people want me to.

I mostly want one of only the active resolutions to use as a compliance resource... you know, what nations are actually expected to do.
