There certainly is a balance to giving feedback like this. It very much depends on team dynamic and the level of trust between team members. I have experienced lower levels of trust and worsen proficiency in giving and receiving feedback de

How bout airlines and government stop making everything about the flying experience worse and worse every year. It doesn't need to be like this. And in other countries it's not. We are making this a stressful experience.

No food is cheap because of our vast productive land and technology. I'm not denying that subsidizes don't exist. You can't just make general statements. If you added up the entire market for all retail and food services-- we

Government had a heavy hand in causing the issue and your solution is more government to fix the problem? We need reform. In general, food in the US is not heavily regulated and that's why we have some of the cheapest and most varied f

Your comment is unproductive and needlessly pejorative. If you are seriously trying to contribute constructively to the problem I outlined, then I think you must (a) acknowledge there is a problem, and (b) acknowledge these institutions are

I agree in principle but I think you are missing the controversy that’s going on. These topics are being taught irresponsibly with no regard to the neutrality, openness or critical thinking that you seem to be implying. They are being used

I can’t help but be a bit of a contrarian. I’m still skeptical regarding remote work being the optimal workplace strategy. I think there will emerge a competitive edge to companies that have their employees working in office settings, at le

What about the studies in the links I provided? I cited my sources. They clearly show for some groups the risk of myocarditis after vaccination is higher than covid. Another piece of evidence. We have multiple countries that have significan

Isn't the correct answer to this - it depends? Neither side can make a complete blanket statement. It depends on age and which vaccine you take. For example, the risk of myocarditis is higher for ages < 40 and those who receive the

I agree with you on hybrids, I think hybrids are a better fit for most people right now. Especially for renters and households with one car. I also think people need to come to terms with the reality of the world we live in right now and ta

I disagree. If not Russia, who do you see as a great power? I would put Russia third on my list, after the US and China. Russia certainly has the political might, intellectual depth, land area, nuclear arsenal, etc that gives them more powe

You should not dismiss these views as just Russian-patriot sounding. These views acknowledge a realpolitik world view. They also acknowledge Russia as a "great power". And of course Russia has interests in the affairs of nations i

Lots of people in this thread are arguing the "do the vaccines reduce spread thing" as justification for or against this policy. I don't think that even matters. These vaccines have risks that are not being opening discussed.

That is low quality evidence. It's folks doing some mathematical modeling. Mathematical modeling has had a very bad track record during this pandemic. Did you even read the paper you are linking?

It is fairly clear that is it not a significant factor, even before omicron. I don't know how these claims that lack a solid scientific basis still continue. You cannot attribute a capability to a vaccine that has not been confirmed th

You are obviously conflating the use of surgical masks in operating rooms that are for stopping droplets with using masks to stop a respiratory airborne virus. How can this possibly be the basis of your argument? It's utter nonsense.

You are coming to this article with your own biases. You seem to be basing your analysis that we "know" masking is highly effective. That is not true. The evidence used to justify this policy is low quality(don't you remember

These people aren't making honest errors. They are censoring opinions they don't like. It's becoming increasingly more absurd as time goes on.

I feel the exact same way as you. This wfh life is not for me. I think it's cruel to force it on young and single employees. I'm having trouble finding a new job that has employees on site. I appreciate you posting this.
