Sounds like a work culture and "top" in your workplace might be not too healthy then.

CEO's should deliver results and help the company grow. If they have issues with him coming to work at 10 am, then the work culture should be adjusted imo for people to understand what it takes for him to deliver results.

Would be nice if you would mention what is your country.

Too bad more and more car manufacturers moved into gizmo mode. I think I will never buy tablet-car that have no physical knobs for basics controls.

Vultr offers $2,5 servers on few locations (I think NJ and 1-2 more). Those are amazing for testing and small work. They are comparable to their $5 servers from a year ago performance-wise. Great value.

I would blame management/top more, than sales. Sales can work only with products they were given. AFAIK Twitter was pretty aggressively hiring 2-3 years ago sales reps across the globe and they were stealing top employees from FB and co.

I would assume that it is the lack of products/top commitment that causes poor sales.

Add one zero.

Remember that Twitter works in multiple countries and in different languages. Then there is a lot of face to face meetings required, so add offices and service staff as well.

1-1,5K would sound reasonable for global sales and customer services.

Using data from regular people as a PART of such a research would help tremendously in my opinion. People do not need to know why this data is gathered when answering it.

There are European versions of Xiaomi working on all European frequencies now in Poland. You can grab a nice Xiaomi phone for $150 with a fingerprint sensor and 3/32 memory.

You can simply ask fisherman about what is going on with their catch. People tend to side with scientific data, that can be outdated or wrong, rather than asking simple man about their own experiences.

We need to learn to ask "regular people", to make big scientific projects like this to work.

This was posted as an opposite to what OP posted, to point out his sided point of view while fortifying his opinion with pretty much unrelated, emotional part of history.

I made sarcasm very obvious, especially with exactly saying it was that, in the second line.

Learn how to read in between lines.

Edited the post so no one else thinks it is the real reply.

Land border attracts tensions. It's also a psychological factor. Then it is much harder to launch an invasion from the sea, than from land.

Its same as saying that there is no difference if Cuba will be "east" aligned and have USSR army/nukes or Mexico - after all, it is easy enough to launch nukes from both places.

You think from a "nuke" perspective. There are much more perspectives, like controlling water borders, locking important Chinese ports etc.

I really think that the humanitarian problem is not a real problem for China. A country this size could easily swallow 10 million Koreans (let's be real, surely not more than half of population would flee), allow them to work and assimilate and not even notice it really. I think the issue is that China is afraid that united Korea will become a US ally and allow US forces to station there. Also it could expose China to the world as a weak player that could not handle Korea by itself.
