They often don’t even let you adopt at that age. I knew some 40+ yo families that adopted overseas due to age restrictions. One family adopted from China and one from Eastern Europe.

I feel like sports are like this too. I see friends spending thousands of dollars on going to sporting events, sports paraphernalia, etc. Just seems like so much when you can watch free at home. I know I know, it’s the experience - but ju

The stimulus checks made sense when people simply weren't allowed to work. I lean very right with my fiscal opinions and I can understand why we stimulated since government (with no choice!) created the quarantine issue, and people ne

Some of this should be taught in public schools then - unfortunately we are spending more time teaching "woke" concepts in math these days. Maybe we should return Home Economics without the "women in the kitchen" aspect

The overhead needs support. If you put up additional security where only IT staff can do x, then you need to ask for or transfer headcount to ensure it’s just as nimble as before. If you demonstrate that ability to manage change, then you

I think you captured it more elegantly than I did. I know it sounds like playing favorites but consider it’s not just me I look at out for. If our IT Business Analyst Jill helps all the people in our business and everyone raves about how

Nope, I am saying that there are many individuals in those functions that a solution creates more work for them, so they default to “no”. Hard no’s are understood in some cases - i.e. installing random nonsense from the internet. However,

Then you need to help me write the queries . Then you need to help me with the API calls. And yes I will shadow IT all day long until you work with me on a better solution then just downloading CSV files. If you aren’t going to help me a

Funny to read this because I happen to work in Finance and many requests come through my team. I’m going to add some advice here for what it’s worth. A manager once told me that Legal and IT will always tell you no before telling you yes.

When that happens we should just bombard their social media profiles. Won’t do much to them but hopefully others will see it.

This reminds me of the scene in The Shining when Wendy disturbs Jack. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wanted to do Jack’s reaction when someone interrupts me.

So there were video games in 1935 that caused the Dolo air strike? I think the issue is around why (or whether) video games cause this, not if there were ever assholes who tried to bomb them.

I just can't agree with what you are saying given all the land and resources they already have - sounds like the Chinese version of Nazi Germany's "Lebensraum" to me. But you have a right to an opinion and I hope it doe

I don’t understand this comment. Do you mean they need to expand into their current unoccupied land, or do they need to claim territory adjacent to them belonging to other countries? Are you referring to Taiwan here?

I believe she had an intermediate Excel course on either EDX or Coursera and it was pretty solid. Not a very deep course but the concepts were very well explained.

And we also have negative outcomes such as discounting worker education and experience (seniority should NEVER be valued over talent), restriction of work to narrow definitions leading to inefficiencies, the fact that the increased cost an

That’s the beauty of the industry though. If you don’t like your work or don’t think you are compensated enough, you are free to apply and work at any number of other tech companies around the world.
