This article is about how the USA as a country lacks the political and cultural maturity about war, compared to for example Europe (and other countries where war was fought on its territory). Countries that advocate a war or conflict, shoul

Namibia, one of Africa's most popular holiday destinations, has launched a digital nomad visa. Namibia offers well developed infrastructure and good internet. The country is safe, peaceful and belongs to the more advanced economies in

Good comment that should be on the top. Like another comment said, the suspension might even be to protect him. The thing is we don‘t know either way.

We have changed the environment that we live in. And in doing so, we created our own Achille’s heel. Possibly the future (or non-future) of civilisation will be the outcome of a natural selection of the fittest, of the culture that deals wi

Your argumentation is missing a crucial event, which threatens USA’s position: The win of a right wing party in Italy. If this trend continues in Europe, then a friendly disposition of Europe towards Russia becomes probable. If this happens

I beg to differ. To at least consider that the sabotage is in US interest, is sound logic. Of course there are many factors at play and a lot we don’t know. The arguments in your post carry a hint of denial in them. Read other posts that ou

Have you done what you suggested before? In my experience, the overhead of what you suggest is significant. Leading and instructing an employee or subcontractor, dealing with learning curves, etc. It sounds nice, but the logic in the GP com

Rioters are not always on the good side. One recent example is what happened in South Africa a couple months ago: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-57996373

This holier-than-you comment could also have been formulated as an addition to supplement the insights given by the blogger. Instead it comes across as a veiled condescension. It doesn’t impress.

You have a point. OP probably doesn’t think twice about letting pop culture exert its authority but balks at a culture that seems from another age. A little more perspective is needed here.

You need to know the amounts that were declared misleadingly in order to make a judgement on the penalty amount.

Kudos to the many low hanging fruits out there. There are so many small and medium sized businesses to whom the internet age has caused just more bureaucracy and admin. It may sound counterintuitive to someone from a high tech first world c

I am not familiar with Flipper Zero, but I can attest from first hand experience that Paypal does not really care about its customers. I struggled for 3 months to get Paypal to pay out a odd $300 which I received as a refund because I cance

It takes two to tango. If you are in a personal relationship that works, you will know that any successful team boils down to the interaction between the members of that relationship. To blame one party, is immature IMO, even if objectively

I’d say that that these two opposites (regulation vs. freedom to just create) will always exist side by side. We tend to argue for one or the other and hope that a clean ideology will emerge from it because it makes our understanding of lif

You are thinking human timescales. The sheer diversity of mindboggling lifeforms that exist and have existed have been everything but conservative. And also very wasteful/destructive.

I believe you will not come to an agreement with those that find that the opposite is true (‘let builders build’) because ultimately it boils down to one’s outlook on life and what we deem important (‘our value system’). By arguing in favou

Your argument doesn’t hold up. A government can change its mind and priorities too. The diversity of right holders (private, government etc) over land ensures some good prevails through various political, social or economic circumstances.

Namibia is worth a consideration, especially if you add the option of remote work. Quality of life and safety is relatively high. Due to the low population density many issues that other countries have do no escalate in the same way. The co

I can argue that choosing what stories are important and which not, is a matter of what one values. I as the editor/owner of a media house might find it important that politician A has ties to company X. Another media house might think

The article is basically saying that there is a focus on commoditising tech talent for what builds shareholder value, and a loss of the passion, imagination and richness that tech can add to the world. My own relationship with tech reflects

Even then, some drivers were not happy with their margins. I would say that they are aware that they are being exploited.

Can’t speak for the rest of the world, but in South Africa the Uber drivers I spoke to have very few, if any, other opportunities.
