OK, true but for City that's a really small part of London: the Totenham Hale train station and its immediate vicinity. It's 46 minutes from Totenham Hale to LCY and 34 to STN. Anything further into London will win for LCY.

All you posted are smoke and mirrors. What it actually is a negative sum game and all such are inherently scams. The only disagreement is about whether the differences to a Ponzi is insignificant or are significant and we have a new kind

The switch didn't happen until 1995 when WinRAR came along, if memory serves. RAR was 1993 and ARJ was 1991.

Extremely heavy citation needed for Confucianism spreading across the Silk Road. As far as I am aware it just didn't happen. Also, the Analects use a very different version of the Golden Rule, much more a prohibition than a moral stand

When I joined my current company, I was the first remote employee, there were less than 200 people total. It's over 4000 now, all over the place. I have no idea what would I want to ask from leadership. They are so far removed from me.
