It is a logical fallacy to focus on who the author is. You either can point out where the error in his reasoning is, or not. Because it sounded pretty convincing to me: to participate in routing a payment you need to have at least the paid

Why fake it? Just infect yourself with Omicron (which will probably happen to you anyway). It is mild, so no risk, plus it boosts your immunity better than the vaccine.

I guess that would be pretty useless, because you would have to catch your target in open field, during the thunderstorm, which is highly unlikely, since most people hide from it. Targeting a car could be solution, but even then, if the vic

Also, government regulations such as HIPAA explicitily force you to have separation of duties, so true DevOps is against them. Developer being able to push their code to production can earn you some hefty fine at the next audit.

The reason NZ can pass any gun law they want is that they do not have the right to own guns written into their Constitution. US are unique in this regard - most of the laws passed would be struck down by the Supreme Court anyway.

Offtopic, but if you really are paid 425 euros per week then you are seriously underpaid even for Eastern European standards. There are (relatively rare, but still) jobs that pay this much per day.

Actually Omicron is exactly how COVID is going away. From what we know so far it is highly contagious, but also mild - which means it basically eliminates the need for vaccines. Give it two, three more months and the whole pandemic will be
