   If anything I'm angry at BBC reporting this as "ransom demand". How can a firm rely on a free service without a contract guaranteeing anything?

    Why? The mere fact he was asking himself those questions show that he's conscientious. Also as long as he delivers in time (even if he doesn't believe it possible), why would this opinion be a problem?

    I think "Duck, you sucker!" is a very underestimated movie. Too bad it was seriously mistitled: Sergio Leone insisted on a literal translation when "A fistful of dynamite" might have made a difference. https:/&#x2F

    Unfortunately it's a race to the bottom between delivery services. I don't know about the US, but drivers here are paid peanuts and being contractors they'd actually lose money to make some deliveries. In other words, parcel

    Two things: Will UAE have the money in 100 years when oil will presumably be depleted or not as valuable? Will UAE still exist with global warming and all?

    Does Facebook? They merely show ads to selected audiencies. And in any case race on Facebook profiles is not quite a secret.

    How come they didn't take a picture of the almost completed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_New_Safe_Confinement ? Along with wildlife I find it also a sign of things moving forward.

    I believe she's barking at the wrong tree. She ought to contact the IRS and tell them not to fine foreign banks for trivial reporting mistakes, or they won't take the chance only for a savings account.

    I don't think you have anything to gain from telling them and potentially much to lose. All it takes is an obtuse manager or a lawyer wanting to cover the company's back (they could be required by law or by contract to disclose an

    How? Do you think the infringing code would have been removed without public shaming? Not necessarily out of malice, but in large organisations these matters tend to be forgotten or idle for a long time. Anyway they did try to settle things
