Is there enough homes within walking distance of the office for all the developers?

They (well, we) are not underpaid.

Some time ago I used to work in a large organization on the very bottom of the food chain. I was making, say, $100k a year, which was quite decent money. Sitting there, doing same thing I could've grown to a "senior bottom of the food chain" of $150k. That was the limit. A soft one, but still the limit.

The organization was quite picky in selecting their workforce. Think FAANG. So in every team you have a bunch of quite smart opinionated folks, who somehow have to be steered in the same direction. With that I see it kinda reasonable for the team lead to make at least $200k a year. Give or take.

Now we move one step up. Someone has to pull all these "creme de la creme" cats together and herd them, so that at the very minimum teams don't work against each other. Ideally work together for some common goal. And I can understand team leads who is not willing to go to this snake pit for 30% salary increase. Why would they? 50% - may be. 70% - that sounds interesting and worth consideration.

Bottom line: according to my humble experience in "the organization", the salary roughly doubles each time you get up the ladder. And being on different steps of this ladder I can understand why.

It becomes complicated if the new owner has legitimately bought the bike in a second hand store.

Yeah, the problem here is that leaving syringes on the floor, urinating in flower beds and talking shit is insufficient to arrest the person. But is sufficient to drive a lot of tenants away from the house.

Because as soon as it happens, I will be first in the line with the question: okay, what should I do to get a free house? Do I need to consume drugs? Would weed do, or it has to be some heavier stuff?

IANAL, but I'd think in this case this is prosecutor's job.

Also, the original post is about the traffic ticket. I'm pretty sure if the judge hears a reference to something he had never heard before, he'll be like "huh? wtf?"

I don't see the problem here.

Next time please be more careful picking the lawyer.

Many legal things are evaluated lazily: the law may not specify exactly what the vehicle is, but if such need arises, there are tools, like precedents and analogy, to answer this question.

The way to think about it is like a logical evaluation shortcut:

  if not ADA_EXEMPT and IS_VEHICLE:
    DISALLOW_IN_PARK

Since wheelchairs are ADA exempt, a question of whether it's a vehicle will probably never be risen.

Using the IT analogy, it's less like C++, where each statement must pass compiler checks for the application to merely start, but more like a Python, where some illegal stuff may peacefully exist as long as it's never invoked.

EDIT: grammar

Will it stop me getting high on food?

If so, it's a blessing.

Dear pharma, please (please, please!) make something to fight food addiction?

Safety is our number one priority.

Not efficiency.

Did the report imply causation from correlation?

May be yes. May be no. But it looks suspicious enough to appoint a special prosecutor and investigate the allegations.

They will have lots of problems trying to hire the next CEO then.
