I don’t consider myself politically correct but this headline is outright racist

What makes you say it's spam? Genuinely curious. If the job openings haven't changed, is it spam to post the same message in multiple threads a month or so apart? Or is there something else I'm missing?

Interested in how they count hours - are the only hours counted the hours where you are actively picking up / delivering an order? Or are employees also compensated for time spent waiting/looking for orders?

In rats, not humans. Interesting nonetheless

sshfs is no longer maintained? That's sad, I used sshfs in school to be able to use my zillion vim plugins to edit code without having to install them all on the remote server we used for compute. I was surprised with how smooth of a system it was.

my friend, CO2 is a natural part of the atmosphere and is emitted from your mouth with every breath you take. Carbon monoxide (CO) is the dangerous gas that you are thinking of.

The term you are looking for is modus operandi (not operandus).

Modus operandi literally means "manner of working," so you want the genitive of operandus (operandi) because the genitive in Latin corresponds (roughly) to the english preposition "of."

Another factor is that people are more afraid of scary things when they feel like they can’t control them. Driving makes people feel like they are in control, which makes drivers underestimate their chances of crashing. This is the same reason that airplane crashes and autonomous vehicle crashes are also huge news events: if people feel like crashes are being caused by something they can’t control, that scares them.

I think most people use an adblocker to avoid seeing ads, not privacy. Most people (myself included) care more about saving time on YouTube videos and making webpages not have pop ups all over the place than privacy.
