Ok. Are you suggesting we don’t make any changes based on what we’ve seen? That we don’t analyze what happened? Of course there are angry individuals and of course leadership should identify areas for improvement. Nothing ever improves unle

Luckily most people don’t want to live like that. It’s true that people have lost a lot of their ability to socialize, but the kind of hate you’re promoting takes a lot more work. It’s tiring for everyone.

The constant stream of incendiary rhetoric isn’t doing anyone any good. Your link is just another “people who disagree with me are nazis” post. It makes wild assertions. Lies and insults aren’t productive, they don’t change policy. The pare

Telling the Post to not endorse a candidate is a step in the trustworthy direction.

You’re saying that Bezos telling the editorial board to not endorse is election interference? I’m really struggling to see how not doing something could ever qualify as interference. The whole concept of journalists endorsing a candidate fe

On the other hand, maybe they’ve been hurting children for years now and they’ve finally been forced to check. It’s sad they don’t have an inventory list they could quickly check without shutting down the library for a year.

Of course their objective value changed. I’m not sure why you seem to be taking issue with that. If you heard an impassioned appeal to your emotions and then immediately afterwards discovered the appeal came from a pathological liar, would

Sounds like it was one officers word against another. If there was a corruption aspect to this, I didn’t see proof of where it was. It might look a certain way from our point of view now, but at the time I’m not sure it was so clear. I very

If everything is as clear cut as that article contends, then why do they gloss over the 4 year gap between crime and an attempt to do anything? I would expect some sort of explanation. Pretty much everything has a statute of limitations. I

I think I see your point but it definitely feels shady to me. First, personally I’ve never asked my employer to match an offer. I just leave. I do think the thought process makes some sense though. If I feel I’m underpaid I’m going to look

I can definitely relate to that but I also appreciate having a set time on the calendar where I know my manager is available. Where I work a manager’s calendar is always full, literally meetings back to back from 8a to 5p. I’ve always sched

For what it’s worth I agree on #1. I really like RR/Jaguar’s current UI. When I’m in a rental or someone else’s car and I’m forced to use CarPlay I hate it. Feels like I’ve been pushed to kindergarten and given crayons… any car manufac

I’m skeptical. The US has had 1 revolution and 1 civil war. I’m not sure either was caused by cost of living increases. We’ve had several economic rough spots worse than the current time. Maybe you’re referring to other parts of the world b

Not sure what your thought process is there… if something is impossible to overcome on a societal level doesn’t that mean it’s innate to humans? We don’t quit being human because we’re in a large group. Group behavior is different from some
