A quick definition of collective work:

Collective work is when many different pieces of work are put together to make one big work, like a magazine or a book. Each piece of work is its own thing, but when they are put together, they make something new. In copyright law, the person who made each piece of work owns the copyright for that piece, but the person who put all the pieces together owns the copyright for the whole thing. This means that if someone wants to use just one piece of work from the collective work, they need to get permission from the person who made that piece, but if they want to use the whole thing, they need to get permission from the person who put it all together.

A more thorough explanation:

Collective work refers to a type of work that is made up of separate and independent contributions from different authors. Examples of collective works include magazines, anthologies, and encyclopedias.

In copyright law, a contribution to a collective work is not the same as the copyright to the collective work as a whole. Each separate contribution has its own copyright, which belongs to the author of that contribution. The copyright to the collective work as a whole belongs to the collective author, but only extends to the creative material contributed by that author, not to any preexisting material used in the work.

For example, if a freelance author writes an article for a magazine, the author owns the copyright to that article. However, the magazine as a whole also has a copyright, which belongs to the publisher. The publisher's copyright only covers the creative material contributed by the publisher, such as the layout and design of the magazine, not the author's article.

Another example of a collective work is an anthology of short stories. Each individual story has its own copyright, which belongs to the author of that story. The copyright to the anthology as a whole belongs to the editor or publisher, but only covers the creative material contributed by them, such as the selection and arrangement of the stories.

@NemoPropheta: mine was on a chill team so i had a good time, but apple works like a bunch of little companies that report to the same ppl so its a little isolating if you're not in the same office/don't go out much. i didn't take RO to intern again

@Sex-Drive: we have entirely different living standards if you think 60k is "hardly anything to live off of:"
i make around that in a hcol area and feel like im balling out while saving over 20% of my income
@Sex-Drive: Seconding what Windy's saying. I live in a LCOL and I'm fully able to support myself and my family on my paycheck alone. $60k in a HCOL while single was living check to check.

if I want to transfer to nyu is it better to go to washu or cardozo
(also why does nyu accept so many transfers from brooklyn lmao, what other t125 will let you transfer that high)
15:07
transferring is grades dependent so "better" is a little weird to define - a lot of ppl don't want to give up schollys/networks for ranking purposes. that being said im going to dozo and hoping for a nyu transfer lol
15:08
i think they take a lot from brooklyn just by the nature of being a nyc school. 3 out of 15 transfers out of cardozo went to nyu last year which is technically a good sign but you'd consider that the rate of ppl at washu wanting to move to nyc and pay sticker after a year is probably lower than the rate of ppl at nyc schools who want to
15:09
i dont really know how important it is to be median vs 75th of transfer gpa but id imagine keeping a B+/A- average is pretty hard in 1L and easier said than done
