It’s just how they word layoff and severance package. In Japan voluntary resignation can be also entitled for severance package depending roles/duration of employment, and this gives larger package than regular voluntary resignation is entitled to, to make them resign “voluntary”.

You are likely to only refer more than current era. If you’re writing govmet grant application, renewing licence or certificate, chances are you mention events hapenned in previous era. You look up table for when the previous era started and ended, which era said year falls into, then convert for each year, each era. Extra minutes wasted every time instead of simply writing in Gregorian year.

Reiwa era enters the chat

Most of Japanese hates the arbitary currender year resetting at each new emperor enthronrment. The conversion is ass and no one knows when it changes (bound to emperor’s health) . Worst is its official year that govmt body accepts.

B looks classy small lady’s hat.

Octopuses too. Excellent problem solving, retaining long-term and short-term memory, recognizing how mirror works and so forth.

I always check price/weight, and its increase has been ridiculous. For ones that don’t increase price also taste different, sadly. The best way to detect real value vs. price is look into nutrition tables but I don’t have the all database memorized lol so they’ll get away with it. :/

IP certainly means protection, though it favors big corps than individuals.

I’m all for those creative professionals. I get why people are upset about their work being used without their consent, especially from people who contracted to provide their work. It’s been used to exactly cut such jobs against them.

Artists, writers, creative professionals arguments on generative AI being copyright infringement is moot. They should simply rally with underpaid third-world AI training (tagging) personel to ask for labour compensation, maybe proposing continuous micropayment for individuals.

If it only drives the far-right, does that mean Facebook contributed shifting in window of discourse? (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overton_window)

They added chronological, follow-only feed in recent update. Would you return if they have it now? How much ppl returning will be an indicator of its future.

Using engagement for metric will ofc render algorithmic feed “better”, i.e. addictive. Their value is not about mental wellbeing.

Give a proper first aid for minor injuries. People tend to dissmiss minor burn/cut/bruises, but first aid right after it is what minimizes lingering pain,.
