It's perfectly fine to not enjoy WFH, the point of the article here is forcing an option onto employees instead of giving them the choice.

Reasonable precautions here were likely to be proper masking from visitors and adequate air filtering in the room. Not something too hard to expect from people visiting a sick person.

Thanks for pointing this out. While this is a symbolic victory, this is not going to ensure French women have safe and affordable access to abortion, especially when Planned Parenthood faces funding problems and smear campaigns while practi

Uniqlo is using RFID too at least in France. Both work pretty well and the speed of checkout is unmatched. But this works for Uniqlo and Decathlon because they only sell their own products. Supermarkets come with more hurdles, as products d

To be fair, and I'm not saying it lightly because I despise Elon Musk, his rationale for pushing Twitter Blue in the first place was to reduce reliance on advertising revenue, so it's definitely a thing in his mind, even if it

I don't think that people realistically oppose monetization going up. The main complaint is adding retroactively a new form of monetization with a unverifiable metric that is not bound to revenue. Sure people wouldn't have been ha

Note that this only applies to e-scooters operators: their licence won't be renewed. Privately owned e-scooters are still legal and allowed. The irony is there has been a lot of efforts from the mayor and operators to regulate the e-sc
