Duty of care and breach are must-haves, for sure.

I’m a bit confused, though. I thought all elements had to be proven, but maybe intent isn't necessary?

I practiced a similar question where intent was a key factor, and it wasn't part of negligence, so I’m leaning towards C as well.

I think option C is the one that doesn't fit because negligence doesn't require intent, just a breach of duty.

I remember that the essential elements of negligence include duty of care and breach, but I'm not sure about the intent part.

Okay, I think I've got a handle on this. The applet is checking the MAC address table and generating some kind of event based on what it finds. I just need to determine the exact behavior.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question is asking about a lot of specific details that I'm not entirely confident I have a firm grasp on. I'll need to review my notes and examples to make sure I understand the right approach.

The workflows are probably in the FND data, since that's where the application configuration information is stored.

This seems like a pretty straightforward network optimization question. I'd go with option C - configuring QoS on the network switches to alleviate the bottlenecks.

Wait, so the defendant doesn't Casien need to intend to break the duty of care? That's like saying I can trip and fall on someone and still be liable. Crazy!

I'd say the answer is C too. Intentionally causing harm is not a requirement for negligence - the defendant just needs to have failed in their duty of care, regardless of their intentions.

Hmm, I was thinking it might be D, since the defendant doesn't necessarily need to have caused actual damage, just that they breached their duty. But I could be wrong...
