can change the landscape beyond

It is the fall of the Earth, when Superman succumbs to Anti-Life. And then he sends Flash to the past to change an item so that doesn’t happen. And then the great battle in which we defeated him. When Darkseid arrives on Earth, in the movie you’ll never see, Earth’s armies unite again, just like they did before. This time there would be aircraft carriers and Special Forces men, all the armies of the…

It comes a month after it lost a legal battle in the UK over drivers' status.

Uber says it will give its 70,000 UK drivers a guaranteed minimum wage, holiday pay and pensions in a move that could prompt a shake up of the country's gig economy.

The ride-hailing giant said all drivers would earn at least the National Living Wage, which is £8.72 an hour.

It comes a month after it lost a legal battle in the UK over drivers' status.

Uber said it showed it was "willing to change" and fares were unlikely to rise because of the change in…

The Melbourne Cup is the richest horse race in Australia and it is the

The Melbourne Cup is the richest horse race in Australia and it is the race that stops a nation, well two nations counting New Zealand. There will not be that many people in either country who have not had a financial interest in the outcome of the race even if it is just the work sweepstake. For many people, their annual flutter on this great race will be their only…

It’s no wonder polling shows that nearly half of U.S. workers want to keep working from home even after restrictions lift: There’s so much more flexibility. Without a commute, hours are less set. Without an office, everyone is less subject to the group norms that have night owls trying to look alert at 8 a.m., and that makes people self-conscious about leaving the building for any reason.

Still, many people feel reticent about using this freedom. Anecdotes abound of people sitting…

Vaccines are amazing, life-saving innovations, and the COVID-19 vaccines are no different. As with any medical procedure, there are potential drawbacks to using them, but we know from massive pieces of scientific research that the COVID-19 vaccines are both safe and effective.

And yet, as you have…

Gov. Jay Inslee today signed an emergency proclamation prohibiting all public K-12 schools in Washington from failing to provide opportunities in both remote instruction and on-campus, in-person instruction. The proclamation aims to address the alarming educational inequities and mental health concerns among students as a result of prolonged remote education.

This has been a long year for our state’s students and their families. They have lived with fear and uncertainty, Inslee said…

Last week, a woman was walking home, in Clapham. It’s a leafy not-quite suburb of London, with an old park in the middle, surrounded by little homes full of young families and young people just beginning their careers. Think of it as reminiscent of a Park Slope, in Brooklyn. As she walked home, through this gentle and usually quiet neighbourhood, she was brutally assaulted and killed.

Her remains were found a week later. And the suspected killer, it turned out, was allegedly a serving…

Returning to the classroom

Under the proclamation, schools will be allowed to stagger the reintroduction of students to campus. Schools will be expected to provide an in-person learning option that equates to at least 30% of instructional time by two key deadlines:

landscape feels like watching a toddler trying

You’re supposed to be patient when it takes them 17 minutes to tie their shoelaces. You’re supposed to applaud their migraine-inducing attempts to play the violin. You’re supposed to give your undivided attention as they tell stories that somehow lack a beginning, a middle, and an end.

But worst of all is when a child wants to “help” you with something. You know that accepting their help will quadruple the time, energy, and resources required to get anything done. You realise that it’d…

Adding even more irony to the already

Adding even more irony to the already unbelievable picture above, all this comes on the eve of a new crime bill. Let me tell you a few of the things it criminalizes. “Serious annoyance.” “Economic harm.” “Activism.” In other words, boycotts. Peaceful protests — like vigils. Simply advocating something. All this is now going to be a criminal offence — punishable by up to ten years in prison.

Britain is now a country criminalising the most basic forms of dissent. Boycotts cause “economic…

does not come from without but from within

There is a saying among bitcoiners, and it becomes more truthful and apparent as time goes on: You don’t change Bitcoin. Bitcoin changes you.

Why is that? At first, I wasn’t sure how to answer this question; I just knew it was true. The reasons behind it remained somewhat of a mystery to me. Yes, Bitcoin is incredibly resistant to change. And yes, sound money lowers your time preference. That is definitely a large part of it. There is also the historical tendency to get rich, so wealth…

rolled over the airfield, which in 1977

On the 25th of April 1980, a Boeing 727 carrying British tourists to Tenerife in the Canary Islands flew off course in fog and slammed into the side of La Esperanza, killing all 146 passengers and crew. The setting for the disaster was familiar for all the wrong reasons: just three years earlier, the very same airport on this tiny Atlantic island had played host to the deadliest aircraft accident in history. The curse of Tenerife, which had already claimed so many lives, had struck again.…
