Since you will never have any way to seriously lern if that question works you can just as well ask in an interview if the candidate ever wanted to be a panda. I think people who wanted to be pandas are lazy and shouldn‘t be trusted.

Why is there so much hero worship in technology? Compared to other business areas we have myriads of heroes and fallen angels. If you think about it, it just doesn’t make a lot of sense, yes there are a lot of people that move technology f

“Would” The problem with nuclear fission will always be the moments when somebody “should” have done a safety test or should have thought about it. I often think about the reaction Angela Merkel had to the Fukushima incident. Before the Tsu

They might just be the core reason why America didn’t react on climate change and without the US there can be no relevant global reaction. So at the end... they could well be the reason if we walk off that cliff... So yes I think they are o

An overlooked problem in these kinds of articles is that fires are not a yearly problem. If you have 10 hectares of forest and in the first year 4 hectares burn down and afterwards every year one hectar ... there is no forest after 10 years
