   Are we surprised when people invent far fetched conspiracies (i.e COVID 5G)? This is a symptom of a much larger problem we have in society. Morally bankrupt leadership and ethically questionable companies. J&J is right up there.

   Thanks for the link to the tough soles site. As an avid hike, Ireland was not in my bucket list. will definitely add it to the list.

   Your comment insinuates a conspiracy theory, equating OP comment with theories of 5g causing COVID. It does not add much to the discussion and comes across as dismissive. My experience is that as soon as we make a judgement call about someo

   How do you avoid the problem of low signal to noise ratio? Some books in the popular business press can be reduced to several pages, with the core idea, rationale, and examples. Yet they all end up being longer than needed with tons of expo

    I actually think this is a false dichotomy, and a common misunderstanding. You do get a hierarchy in a self-organising team. The self-organisation will re-produce itself, and produce a hierarchy with components from within the system itself

    I too stopped using it. Too much noise, very little signal. There were some interesting parts. Like listen for an hour to get an interesting perspective, story , viewpoint of 5 mins. It really depends on who was in the room, and the ability

    I have been using a Sony WH-1000XM3s for about 10 months now. Got it just before WFH and has been a life saver. Question: anyone else feels fatigued after a long period with ANC on? Ears ringing after? Because of this I use mine sparingly.
