Is fish DEI also canceled in America?

Sounds like an excuse to go to a conference.

Looking at the agenda it's all like - "revolutionary idea, what if we organized a company so that it's not horribly dysfunctional"

4/10, would attend if all expenses covered

Did someone tell him that speed limits are also regulated by legislation? Instead of changing the rule he dislikes, he removes the enforcement. I wish I could say it's surprising, but many people think like this.

(not discussing whether speed limits are good or not, just the thought process behind it)

No, but it's going to keep some resources and equipment in Finland, instead of being sent to Ukraine.

"Soon?" It already is. And it's been fairly autocratic for the last 10+ years.
I'm not an expert in American history so I can't tell you exactly when it started, but as long as my English was good enough to read news from the US it seems like every president has expanded presidential powers more and more.

At some point US presidents got the power to conduct wars without approval of the congress. I'd say this was the cutoff point.

It's a shared taxi/marshrutka/dollar van/jitney ... Too many names but common across the world especially where the government is incapable of organizing proper public transport.

Just repackaged for techbros.

How? What? Did they ask for an abstract advice (which makes a bit of sense), or about actual events in their lives? Companies do have a lot of personal data on us, but not that much.

Is there racially motivated violence in South Africa? Sure. But calling it genocide is an attempt at emotional manipulation to amplify the division and hatred. And the American "liberals" are falling straight into the trap of denying anti-white racism, thus confirming the genocide narrative.

When there's a murder in Mexico, the first guess is always cartels

There are people immigrating to Argentina?

I'm not sure there will be a difference either way. Customer service jobs spent decades trying to train humans to act as much as robots as possible. Of course replacing them with a shitty bot seemed to make sense, they were already pretending to be shitty bots.
Any "quality" in customer support comes from individuals circumventing company rules to provide actual support to the customer. AI can't do that.

Yeah, I suspect bad data or misunderstood question. Even if you go everywhere by car or public transport, accumulating 30 min of walking is not that unlikely.
