It's not the greening that makes people in Paris angry, it's the the incompetence in implementing nice sounding ideas. Anyone can have a good idea and say it to get elected ... nobody is going to argue with more trees, family frie

This only means that Deutsche Bank is long on Google. 99% of these analyses are extremely biased and purposeful. I'm not trying to peddle "banks are evil" it's normal, it's how this business works. I worked in a lea

This is not about "Facebook allows politicians to lie" it's about taking down Trump's anti-impeachment ad. The page claims it was debunked by "fact-checkers" but that in fact is a lie and it provides no referen

I wish there were some revisionist theories, but to propose a revisionist theory you need tons of work and very credible studies to back it up ... to simply say "hey Ramses was a bad guy" is much easier, it won't attract atte

They did post a healthy profit or rather shared earnings before tax with the media. But if there is no further growth potential such profits make the company worth way less than the most recent valuation even by NASDAQ standards which has i

Accepting to do the "difficult shift/all nighter/extra" is a choice too. Besides, not giving people with children an extra shift is morally right. A company should get extra workforce and also prioritize employee's
