"Ask for forgiveness, not permission" – The Real Cost of Moving Too Fast
In Germany, there’s a saying: “Besser um Vergebung bitten als um Erlaubnis fragen” ("Better to ask for forgiveness than permission") or “Gleich mal Fakten schaffen” ("Make decisions fast and set facts").The IT Blog
'Sure, you might feel like you’re temporarily winning because you’re working more hours than the “opposing team”, but where does all of this end? Working the occasional overtime isn’t going to kill anyone, but doing it repeatedly and gleefully as part of your identity just might.'

Even allowing for the fact that Iceland's economy is not a direct parallel to the UK, this report should encourage us to shift to a four day work week!

I think it comes down to the appearance of the words, for me, since they're how I learnt English, it's more aesthetically pleasing, and honestly that's how I edit and write anyway -- does it look/feel correct? Then yes, it is correct. It's like I learnt the rules and then internalised the appearance as the right kind of beautiful (this is how edit grammar and punctuation, too)
Please note that I'm not saying that the version of English I use is more correct than any other English, language or dialect! I'm just musing on how I experience writing and editing and how it feels to do the work I do

But today I feel better, and focused, and I need a job.
So if anyone in LA needs a lead host and waiter with about a decade of experience, who can also do prep work, cashiering and simple barista work for pretty much any job imaginable (I wouldn't mind trying something new):
We should talk :D

Conflict in South Korea reopens wounds examined by 2024 Nobel laureate
When the Nobel committee recognized Han Kang in October for her body of work exploring “the fragility of human life,” it could not have known how relevant the theme would feel in South Korea just two months later.BYTESEU (Bytes Europe)
With a Trump administration on the horizon, the future of the FTC is in doubt. But the coalition for a new privacy law includes many of Trumpland's most powerful blocs – like Jan 6 rioters whose location was swept up by Google and handed over to the FBI. A strong privacy law would protect their Fourth Amendment rights – but also the rights of BLM protesters who experienced this far more often, and with far worse consequences, than the insurrectionists.
The "we do it with an app, so it's not illegal" ruse is wearing thinner by the day. When you have a boss for an app, your real boss gets an accountability sink, a convenient scapegoat that can be blamed for your misery.
The fact that this makes you worse at your job, that it loses your boss money, is no guarantee that you will be spared. Rich people make great marks, and they can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent. Markets won't solve this one – but worker power can."
