I don't have any confidence in Russian or Chinese public health data, and little confidence in the data from India. That said, in the case of India: at the start of the pandemic the government _asked the urban construction industry_ fo

I'm not denying the historical reality of false flag operations, I'm saying they were individual events rather than a prolonged widespread campaign of (self-)destruction.

Taking the supplied example "Ukraine bombing its own cities to make Russia “look bad” is such a claim. " Individual false flag military operations are not uncommon, but widespread destruction of one's own country for propagan

I was happy to have a legal basis to decline to come in to the office. I've not met anyone who was happy to be restricted in when they could go out of their home.

I'm in the UK and they've always asked how many miles I expect to drive during the policy. I just bought a policy today and for the first time they asked if I drive during peak hours. This is not a black box policy - they can&#x27

Introductory-level music theory is usually taught to beginners learning an instrument. Simple scales, chords etc. The YouTubers I've watched recently all add the caveat that this is 'western' music theory and other cultures h

This is some compelling writing. I know this has real life implications for real people so I hope it's not in poor taste to say it would make a good movie.

Or just pose a real world problem? Like every technical interview I've ever had. Giving me a problem from a catalogue is letting me know you're boring - I'll be polite but I won't accept your offer.

Sky News runs a YouTube Livestream with what amounts to a doomsday countdown, a modeled global average temperature shown to about 10dp so they can have the drama of watching the number go up about once per second. This is both fringe in the

If you need to use it to test candidates, bad news is you can't tell rote memorizers from problem solvers.

Just looks like some background swaps and retouching. With a 2 hour turnaround are they actually using a human and a copy of Photoshop? Technically AI since that's how Adobe does some of it's tools.

Weeds out people who didn't memorize an answer to a well known test. But it's more efficient to discuss a real world code problem as this allows you to weed out people who can't solve problems or code either.

That was when Excel contained a hidden flight sim game. Maybe the candidate just had a dry sense of humor?

If you're in the nurse or chef employment market then I don't think you'll be affected by the WFH trend in white collar work. We already have a shortage of nurses and pay is stagnant.
