> next year's US presidential election. :) Any chance the US can extend its terms? An election seems to last an entire year and be one of the most toxic events possible online.

Having enacted similar policies before i can say with some certainty your IT department don't actually care. They're most likely trying to fill out a checkbox on some compliance/tender document from a decade ago.

I don't think you need a college degree to be successful, i don't even think you need a good college degree. I do believe it increases your chances of living a comfortable and fulfilling life.

I'd argue against some of this with relation to google. All their products are positioned to inhale data and spit relevant advertisements back out. Chrome, Andriod, Cars, DNS. They all help collect data about a person to better train t
