All power to that engineer. From an HR standpoint, Google might be right, in the same way that VW would have been right to fire an employee who disrupted meetings when they built cars for the Nazi regime.
Trees themselves are useful because they support biodiversity such as small mammals, insects, all the useful things along a forest floor. can't do that with asphalt.
Removing parking lots will increase public support for all of the other things you mentioned. It's easier to start with tearing out parking lots and if necessary, cap parking prices, in addition to the other decades long projects
Probably not, those are usually attached to armor vests and he's not wearing one, and having large enough bladders to support the whole jet suit would be pretty bulky/heavy, and I can't see anything like that. The plan would probably just be to ditch the suit and swim. The clothing he's wearing is quite snug fitting, Crye G4s if I'm not mistaken.
What a joke. May as well add "Only if the traders promise not to do it again" to the headline.
> Starting tomorrow, we plan to allow limited buys of these securities,” Robinhood, a popular trading app, said. “We’ll continue to monitor the situation and may make adjustments as needed.
What a betrayal of their customers. Really going mask-off with what it means for a startup to "democratize" an industry: allowing the little guy to chip in, but never actually compete with the big boys.
Yes and no. At no point did Apple sell me on the idea that I'd have an open computer in my pocket. In fact, they aggressively sell me on the opposite, and make it clear that they act as gate-keepers to what apps can and can't be in my pocket. Totally legitimate to take issue with that, but I think there's a marked difference between doing that and Robinhood arbitrarily preventing folks from doing these trades.
Sure with broad strokes, it generally sucks when a tech company makes unilateral decisions for its customers, whether that's restricting which stocks you can buy or whether you can put unauthorized apps on your iPhone.
But I find it particularly egregious because the major principle of RH was that it was on the side of the everyman rather than institutions.
And yet their entire business model is that they offer it for free because they sell access to your orders to market makers so that they front run your transaction.
I'm quite excited about this. I think it will lead to a reduction in "brain drain" here in the American South. Always bummed me out that the top college graduates tend to end up moving away to CA or NYC. Now they can still have those great jobs and contribute to their home or chosen states' economies.
I'm pleasantly surprised that California's firearm law is so strong, that issuing a few concealed carry permits would be even on the radar of the executive team. Contrast that to the stress I felt knowing a Best Buy coworker (several years ago) carried a gun on him during Black Friday sales!
I wish I knew which life milestones were important and which ones I don't have to worry about. Or at least a more structured guide to life from someone I admire or trust. I'm a single 25 year old software dev, and am doing fine in most aspects of life, but feel like I'm missing some feelings of accomplishment and fulfillment. I guess what I'm looking for is a way to calibrate my feelings and emotions and general state of life.
