The worst volume control in the real world is Bluetooth on cars. Somehow every time I connect to my car the volume gets lower. Now I have to turn it up to the max to hear a little bit. I have tried all the methods on internet with no succes

Yes. there are changes in technology and economy, but not in basic human needs. There might be less people work for survival, and more for higher needs, but it does not change the basic structure of human needs (see Maslow's hierarchy

The whole point is that even with material support, people still need to live with spouse and kids, and having a regular work (not necessarily work for someone else), to have a happy life. Yes, modern technology and economy makes it easier

No. "Work as purpose" is an observation, maybe a new observation (not sure about that). It's not like that a scholar invented an idea, then the mass followed the idea and the idea changed everyone's life. No scholar has

Of course people can choose not having spouse or kids. What do you mean there is zero alternative? There are people born rich enough to not have to work, but do they live a happy life by not working all the way?

The conclusion came to me is that extreme working and extreme no-working are both bad in the long run. All you need is a work-family-life balance. I am also glad that the author now opens the door for getting married and even having a kid.

Actually when you use R functions to import CSV files, they also guess data types and make some conversions by default. The difference is that in R you can turn them off if you want to. But in Excel there are automatic changes you can'

Not sure what you mean "truth". There is a discovery process, before they form their opinions.

Yes. At some point the employee should know. But there is a process, and I don't think they should inform the employee right from the start.

Never heard of "computational social scientists" before. Seems to be CS people working on social issues. The reference list seems to be exclusively CS, no social science at all. Maybe they should just call themselves computer scie

No. Sometimes the employee didn't underperform at all. Why do you assume the manager always know the truth?

No. The management team can make honest mistake. After preliminary investigation, they find they are wrong. No need to tell the employee in this regard. I did not say they should never tell the employee. I think sometimes it's unnecess

Not really. The management team can make mistakes too. In those cases, it is not clear whether it is better for the employee to know. There is no clear cut obvious answer to this, unless you assume everyone is an emotionless robot.

I don't think this is a major issue at all. All the common carriers (phone line, cell phone, public square in shopping mall, etc.) designated by law have (or can have) spam problems. This does not change a thing. No serious common carr
