It is beyond that. There are several states where fossil fuels are important to the local economy and voters there will vote against anything killing these industries.

Because of NATO, something that Trump doesn’t seem interested in continuing being in.

Also, I can see Trump trying to build a legacy through a land deal.

So the article is trying to make the argument that the US was a part of the coup yet the only fingerprints that could be traced to the US is that it kept the coup from being carried out.

And the South Korean military didn’t crush parliament when it voted for impeachment despite orders from the South Korean President.

Nothing in the preview indicates US involvement.

He was chasing status no matter what, something that is a common thread throughout most of the Vacation movies. Him hosting for Christmas is part of that status chasing.

Greenland is in a strategic part of the Arctic Circle, which is gaining more attention as it is seeing more shipping activity and people are finding more natural resources. The idea would be to turn it into a second Alaska in terms of greater military presence.

Yeah. China is doing the right thing by switching to a renewable energy economy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. If that switch is so virtuous, why celebrate increased gas imports?

The family financial obligations have become obliterated in American society. It is no longer the case that parents are expected to help their adult children establish themselves in a home and it is no longer the expectation that adult children financially care for their parents.

The loss of an inheritance is part of that.

Yeah, but a lot of companies laid out very poor WFH policies at the start of the pandemic.

I’m also expecting that some companies are willing to accept WFH if it means they don’t have to pay as much.

It should be “A person’s pay”, but a lot of tech offices are in high cost of living places like the Bay Area. If you don’t have to show up in San Jose consistently, you can hire from wherever and most other places will have a lower cost of living.

So someone in Austin may be willing and able to do the same job as someone from San Jose for 20% cheaper because their lower cost of living still makes it work it. Or maybe someone in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon may be willing and able to do the same job for 60% cheaper.

Suddenly, those high salary tech positions go away because major tech companies are no longer limited on where they can source talent.

I figured this would kick off again when work from home got implemented.

If your staff don’t need to report to an office, why pay them for a high cost of living when they can live anywhere? In person pay is going to drop to national or international averages since you don’t need them physically at a site.

Probably because the more work that gets sent there, the less work his office gets and therefore the less staff his office needs.

The entire world is in a debt crisis. It just happens to be that the global South is the first at risk of default.

It would be who a project manager reports to.

They are looking for someone to run a department that develops digital tools for the company. Senior leadership has no fucking clue what digital tools they want, but they want something.

You’ll probably be given a free hand to build your team since the ad seems clueless on what they have.

You’ll also be expected to be the subject matter expert for development of digital tools, even if you aren’t expected to develop them.

Because de Gaulle wanted a system that combined the worst of the Presidential and Parliamentary systems.

Just now?

That’s not good.

It is probably something to confuse automated systems. A person could figure out their astrological sign easily by knowing their birthday. A computer attempting to brute force attack would probably be less likely to know how to answer the question.
