Amsterdam, Copenhagen, and Stockholm would probably be the leading candidates vying for Europe's Silicon Valley, at least as an American looking from the outside. Next to those are the obvious economic hubs where talent exists en masse

The mistake they made was bribing individuals instead of making a sizable donation to the department and then casually chatting up the brass at a heavily sponsored fundraising event, over a few glasses of wine, about how frustrating the del

People are actually downvoting my post (and the one where someone confirmed that this happened at three Fortune 100 companies). It's one thing to be a boy scout, but it's another entirely to get accused of severe, frivolous charge

I have never heard of a major company that didn't advise its employees to pay bribes abroad. Whether it's legal or illegal is almost aside the point, someone can choose between either breaking some arcane, unenforced US law, or po

Wow, what a fascinating phenomenon. A weak first dose somehow primes the immune system better than a full one?

American here. I have a larger vocabulary than probably 99% of people, including multiple regional and ethnic dialects, but I have never heard or seen this word in my entire life.

To what extent is this an actual issue with WFH? COVID has deteriorated my mental health significantly, and the last time my productivity was this low, I was a teenager living with my parents. I've spent the majority of my career worki

I can speak to GoDaddy's practices. This exact same thing happened to me. I've never searched another domain through them again.

They'd probably say that this metric is descriptive, not prescriptive.

I assume nothing. I've left home exactly once since the second week of April, the next time I leave will be to get vaccinated (whether next week or years from now), and the very next time I leave after that will be to get my antibody l

Because I've left home exactly once since the second week of April, and I'm not leaving again until I have a 100.0% chance of getting the vaccine, full stop.

This is nonsense -- I'm at high risk, and I'd take a flight to Russia right now to get a dose of Sputnik V if I knew I wouldn't catch COVID-19 on the trip. Those grandstanding against these vaccines in the name of safety shou

Absolutely this. I'm in an at-risk population, as are the two others in my household, and this pattern of perpetually delaying is driving me insane. I'll gladly take a 0.1% chance of an unspecified SAE over a 50% chance of death.

Can I suggest that "90s simplicity" is an oxymoron? I was alive back then, and I've always been under the impression that the nineties were extremely fast paced and increasingly complicated.

Poverty is undoubtedly the cause in most cases, but not all. It’s worth noting that even among farmers who deal in $100,000s, the addiction and suicide rates are still abysmal because their lifestyle and environment are so unfavorable. Also

Ok, ok, since you want to be horsey: ambulances take 50-60 minutes to arrive (pregnant? heart disease? prepare to feel third world terror), the police can’t realistically save you from any kind of violent altercation or crime and no one els

Pepper spray (hell, even max strength bear spray with tear gas) wasn’t anywhere near enough. You don’t have enough range for it to start working in time when they’re charging at you, at least not unless it’s one of those crazy kinds that sh

Thank you so much for making the counterpoint. I grew up in a rural setting and would give just about anything to take back that loss of years of my life. A few extras: * You can't exercise, because dogs don't just bark but also c

How does one get sued for selling public domain images?
