Worked for me – less anxiety, better sleep, easier wake up and I feel like I can focus better during the day. Trick for me was to not quit cold turkey, but to slowly decrease the amount of ground coffee I used. The rest was decaf. Did this

A great migration will happen soon as more cash/resource-starved countries will open their doors like this to international talent. It will start a competition amongst countries to get the best talent in their borders. For Iceland this

Dude works for slack – a quick search reveals that he was one of the early employees. I know nothing about him otherwise, but he doesn't have to come from money, being lucky with the IPO could explain the windfall to afford the house.

Problem is – he did follow "the rules". He just had root access at the gov't COVID testing system level. Here's a separate thought experiment too: We've all heard stories of people faking COVID tests. E.g. people do
