I live in a high-crime area. I hear gunshots every now and then. In two years there's been one shooting on my block. I treat others with respect and mind my own business. My neighbors reciprocate, and don't bother me. For various

A few days ago they declared a "state of emergency" in a few airports, which they're pretty transparently using to squeeze staff. I don't see any non-bogus reason to, for example, stop accepting doctor's letters fro

Nope, the incentives don't work like that. I regularly get spam calls in Chinese. My best guess is this is because if they randomly dial Bay Area area codes they sometimes get Chinese people.
