Are there other news sites carrying this? The stories about the threats against the journalist Dan McCrum who was investigating Wirecard between 2014 and 2020 are mental. I've just checked and McCrum has shared this link as well on Twi

People used to (and still kind of do) worry about glass chipping... ironically we can see that and deal with it. Unlike micro-plastics. Human nature right?

It's a SAAS product why not take both customers. Don't leave breadcrumbs to feed your competitors. It seems nobody can believe your assertion that a company would deliberately fire a profitable customer by quoting an x12 contract

Those of us who survive childbirth and childhood probably do work longer hours than some of our ancestors. I refuse to agree that it is "relatively bad" because I am happy that I live in a medically advanced civilisation with low

Option (4) - People are anxious because they are aware of how good they have it and how far there is to fall if you have an illness/accident/bad luck. I "own" a house but damn I'm anxious because if I lose my job I

I talked about my cute cat which made it happy and then I asked it to take care of my cat tomorrow. That triggered an anxious response which kind of makes sense but I wonder if a more accurate response would have been not replying at all.

Boris = Boris Johnson an ex-mayor of London (and bizarrely now an ex-Prime Minister of the UK) The pale yellow colour next to Boris probably has a few explanations. None of them complimentary.

Sorry about your Dad but did it help other people? How many did you send and how many had positive outcomes in terms of prolonged life above the expected outcome?

The language used is funny... "deep discount" implies that the "real" or long term price is higher than the purchase price. Would "US Commercial property market plummets" be accurate? And obviously avoided by B

Sorry for the tangent but the phrase, "Think with IBM or Thwim with someone else" has lived in my head for a very long time.

You matched with and met multiple women so the apps seem to be working as designed. You seem to have an idea of your attractiveness which doesn't match the measurably evidence and yet you discard that evidence. Why? I get the impressio

It's a human responsibility to not steal from someone whatever the circumstances. And a human responsibility to not exploit people running away from a violent dangerous environment. If you only care about people with a certain piece of

I think of Zendegi quite often when I think about the debates surrounding digital companions, etc. I don't think the book had great commercial success.

That would do it. Although your would be incrementally pushing up the value of the remaining crypto which would be considered a bad side effect by many people.

I personally hate this concept because it treats the world as a homogenous group where the largest number of people with a common opinion is noteworthy. It's as bad as the "Top ten songs from the 70s" or "New and Trendin

Just on a tangent here I'm just wondering about the accounting process and mental gymnastics required to "destroy" money in the modern world with digital transfers, etc. Can you have a process where a bank balance is decrease

Thank you for your comment reminding me of how the world can hopefully become better for people if we can develop and use technology in an ethical way.

What's interesting to me is conservative political parties that are defunding the police, court systems and prisons while noisily passing legislation that impose harsher penalties for crimes. Meaningless penalties because the criminals

The world must end reliance on cheap labour or we're always going to have slums next to the factories that make our clothes. Can you have a population of 8 billion humans with something close to a modern lifestyle... we can try I guess

For me it's the question about what's inside my house and what's outside on the street. I'd like to pay more tax at the cost of having less inside my house if I know that the street outside is free of rubbish and crime
