It’s even simpler than that: they leased the office space and have to continue to pay that lease or else pay an early termination fee. This is basically the sunk cost fallacy. But you are right that sometimes additionally they get tax breaks for certain office space, for instance the San Francisco mid-market tax break (AKA the Twitter tax break)
You’d think they’d want somebody who acted like a Christian. Surely the Bible says something about using sinful means to an end…
Why not say—as some slanderously claim that we say—“Let us do evil that good may result”? Their condemnation is just! https://biblehub.com/romans/3-8.htm
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. https://biblehub.com/romans/3-8.htm
Better a little with righteousness than much gain with injustice. https://biblehub.com/proverbs/16-8.htm

Dang, he only ran for president 8 years ago? It seems like an eternity ago that he was president.
This is so fucked:
When Mr. Duterte left office, his administration said 6,252 people had been killed by security forces — all described by officials as “drug suspects.” Rights groups say the overall death toll stands at roughly 30,000.
Privatized profits and socialized losses are such bullshit.

III One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
Except male genital mutilation, aka circumcision. (Please don’t take this as me saying FGM and MGM are equally bad. FGM is much, much worse.)
You can cut one leg off an IC on the board and it becomes a regular barcode reader.
It’s so bad.

That means the supply of workers in many countries is quickly diminishing.
I thought AI was going to take our jobs.
The lawyers are just loving this AI bloodbath.
In binary, when you add one more numeric place, things double. Not doubling would be like having two digit decimal numbers but only allowing people to count to 50.
Hugging, definitely.
Snuggling, maybe? Like maybe we both fell asleep in the back of a van and ended up snuggling a bit and when we woke up we’re not weirded out by it.
Wrestling, maybe, but it would probably be with kids or pets around. I can’t remember doing it but I wouldn’t be weirded out by it.
It wasn’t always this way though. I was raised southern Baptist. Becoming OK with male physical interactions and homosexuality was a journey, and I am much happier with how accepting I am now than when I said I was as a Christian who had this low-key hypocritical “I know the truth of god and accept everybody” while also looking down on sinners.
I have a gay friend who came to visit me and we went around the city and to a house party and had a great time and then fell asleep in the beach. The next day he said “that was one of the best dates I’ve ever been on” and it caught me off guard because I was just “hanging out”, but if it had been a girl, it would have been a great date, and I thought “ok, sure, it was a ‘date’ with a guy friend and that’s ok.” It was a big step for me.
When I was younger, hunting with an ar15 was illegal. Apparently that has changed? Or maybe it was always legal in Michigan. https://thegunzone.com/are-ar15s-legal-for-deer-hunting-in-michigan/
Nothing to kill or die for, and no religion too
I use an rpi2040 with circuitpython and usbhid. Plug it into anything and it shows up as a mouse and moves the mouse in a tiny circle every few minutes. You can get one for $6.
100% this. Corporate incentives need to change. Money is the only primary corporate incentive right now, everything else is secondary and works towards that primary goal. Without a change that puts that goal in check, it will increasingly bring ruin on a global scale.
