Apartments don't generally lose much money when appliances fail. They pay "unskilled laborers" low wages to replace the unit within a reasonable time frame. During that time, the tenant continues to pay rent as normal. There

You’re probably overestimating the network effects of perceived morality and underestimating the effects of being by far the most powerful nation since 1945. If China doesn’t implode and becomes way more powerful than the United States, we

The Audi A1 was over $30,000. That's not "testing the affordable car"! Honda HR-V and Honda Civics are selling like crazy (<$25,000). Ford Maverick at $20,000 sold out a YEAR before the vehicles had even been manufactured.

Whose moral high ground? As an American who worked in the middle east I have seen with my own eyes the devastation and ruin which American war crimes have wrought. I'm sure if we were forced to choose between a unitary superpower of US

CppCon is run by the "Standard C++ Foundation" which as of their latest tax filings (state and federal) has only 4-5 voting members. New members are only corporations and are not granted voting rights. There's probably no rea

I can sympathize. I'd rather not fight that legal fight in the first place if I can avoid it. Plus I'm not a lawyer, and the Terms of Service are a thousand pages long. Am I entitled to small claims court or did I sign away that r

Even if we take your position at face value (which most would, it’s not controversial) that doesn’t invalidate GP’s statement. It just asserts that it’s the general case which applies to all geopolitical power dynamics. “They” won’t stop un

If the truth makes them owe damages… then they rightfully owe the damages, which would make that silence willfully unethical. It’s wrong to try to avoid making things right especially if you think you have a legal obligation to make things

That’s exactly what it’s supposed to mean. How big of a loophole it is remains to be seen. Would this loophole fit $300,000/year McKinsey consultants? Would it fit $75.000/year Accenture engineers? The idea is that the CFO people
