The sent message sits in the Outbox until the configured delay elapses, after which Outlook automatically sends it. I've found it handy for recalling a sent email and reviewing it, making minor edits, or moving it back into Drafts and reworking it before resending it out.
Anyone who knows anyone in the media should make it a point to make a story out of this -- it plays as big guy robbing, then kicking, the little guy.
I think they already made a couple movies featuring a similar theme. Starring some ostensible comedian named... Allan or Aaron or something... Sandberg ? Kind of low-brow stuff, but popular nonetheless.
Money for wages isn't spontaneously generated, it has to come from somewhere. Spending too much on employees who aren't worth the money (because you could get them, or someone just like them, for much less — obviously this was the case) means that the company's bottom line suffers.
*That's* where you're going with this? Now that they can afford it, 25 *more* people will be in front of me in line at Starbucks *every morning* ordering gourmet drinks, and you're giving me economic theory? You might want to rethink your priorities.

Not having to listen to that guy complain about being underpaid or a dozen other things -- priceless.
In a sense, the long view would say that their rise is a testimate to our way of life, that we converted them to the Western worldview and in return that shows that we're right and the communist and fascist ways are wrong.
Sort of... W. Edwards Deming wrote a couple books on this subject -- Japanese companies adopted the principles that he (an American) brought to them, and went from being synonymous with poor quality to the opposite. In the meantime, American companies pretty much ignored what he had to say.
So they were definitely converted, but you could say there were two opposing 'Western' worldviews on this. Which is the 'real' one, I can't say.
I heard they were trying to find a solution provided by a UK-based company, but none of the vendors could figure out how to make a database engine that would leak oil.

I bet half the fans will accept a much smaller amount of inexplicable error, and half will demand a smaller amount of explicable error. They may go so far as to pick colors to help identify their preferred choice, and possibly even associate an animal or ethnicity with their selection.

How do you enforce said license? With copyright law.
I recall someone saying that companies can be wary of a 'bare license'. They prefer to have a purchase contract accompany a commercial software license, which elaborates inter-party financial or other penalties for violation, rather than relying on local and federal laws for enforcement.

Outlook can be set to delay outgoing emails.
The sent message sits in the Outbox until the configured delay elapses, after which Outlook automatically sends it. I've found it handy for recalling a sent email and reviewing it, making minor edits, or moving it back into Drafts and reworking it before resending it out.
you're premise for running is false, and you won't be elected.
People running under false premises don't get elected?

The $70k/year figure coincides with a scientific study about happiness.

Facebook and Twitter as well -- internally, but they do use it.
The murder rate in hunter-gatherer societies is known to be rather high. (They don't have police, after all.)
I'm sure having evolved to be so tasty is also another contributing factor.
I'm quite sure some people in Japan consider the fire bombing of Tokyo a war crime, but they haven't been able to do anything about it, now have they?
They became an engineering and manufacturing (?) giant, stealing some of the superiority from the US. That should count, right?
By the way, we are actually working on a charger that automatically moves out from the wall and connects like a solid metal snake
I suspect this might not end well.

Automated swappable seats/whole-lower-interior liners?
You just have to do so within a certain framework.
Perhaps a framework constructed from ... support logs?
"Chief, the Doctorow subpoena turned up nothing -- he said they have no logs."
"Isn't this like that other one with that guy a while back -- Anon-Admin, was it?"
"Yup, pretty much identical."
"Ok, if this happens again, let me know. We'll kick it back through the law channels and get them forced to keep logs."
"Gotcha. Where do you want to get lunch?"
But thanks to the egalitarianism of technology, now we can all keep blood and other fluids off our formalwear.
Simpsons already did it, anyway.
I bet the NSA is going, "Just charge it to the taxpayers."
Detals of the reports are murky, but I think it was something like this. While we're sorry this happened, we presume he went out happy.
I bet half the fans will accept a much smaller amount of inexplicable error, and half will demand a smaller amount of explicable error. They may go so far as to pick colors to help identify their preferred choice, and possibly even associate an animal or ethnicity with their selection.
It's something like a form of censorship. The internet supports that, right?
A better model is one where we assume (unless demonstrated otherwise) that everyone in the profession at hand is striving in good faith for excellence
Perhaps via a modernized version of the Hippocratic oath?
