Yeah. Right, no more jurisdiction to DHS on labor matters.

This looks like a product push to make the most out of WAH during COVID-19 crisis. On similar note, I must say that Zoom ate Skype's lunch within weeks and MS marketing team has royally screwed that one up.

What's the guarantee that say your San Francisco/NYC employer will keep paying you city rates when you are living in a small town in mid-west. At some point they will catch up and start saving money this way. Everyone at a tech company is not a crucial employee. Don't get me wrong, I am all in for getting paid SF rates while living in a cheap Texas suburb.

They just opened a huge new store at Hudson Yards in NYC. I’m sure lack of foreign rich tourists(mainly rich Chinese) during COVID months must have hurt them big time as well.

As a dev you would use Oracle only if your execs have cut a sweet licensing deal with the Oracle.

Is Java “pass-by-reference” or “pass-by-value”?

‘However with the development of antibiotics, UBI use declined and it has now been called “the cure that time forgot”.‘
It says antibiotics. Is it me or UBI was used to treat bacterial infections or the OP is desperately correlating this study with the “effectiveness” of testing viruses with UBI? I feel like a lot of partisan users are getting the boot from Reddit and they are channeling out their frustrations here. Guys let’s keep HN pure with tech only posts.

Questions like these on SO should be taught in CS-101. There are some amazing answers in there that I would have hard time finding in textbooks.

Most of the items I have ordered from non-Aamazon small businesses during COVID-19 crisis is backed by Shopify platform. Their checkout form has a very unique layout so it is easy to tell without looking at the page source.
Re:Amazon Isn’t the Only Shop Online

Amazon's (+Wholefood) supply-chain failure is an eye-opener for me during COVID-19 crisis. I hate to acknowledge my dependability on Amazon Prime while living in a big city. I am not sure how I will break my habit but I know for a fact that I won't be ordering everything from Amazon Prime in the future.
For a company that commands e-commerce space in year 2020, it is really frustrating to find this workflow while ordering from WF while using Amazon's app, it is a joke and UI/UX 101 blunder. You add items to your cart. They run out of inventory. Items disappear from your cart. Either you place your order assuming all items were in your cart or you don't get a delivery slot and you have to add those items again. Why can't they just borrow the same feature from Amazon.com where unavailable items move conveniently to "Save later" section?

Why do developers prefer dark mode for pretty much everything from IDE to OS to iOS?

I hate to say this but a lot of unfounded speculation in your comment as well.
"Secondly, have you done your research? Surely Facebook is not the only company being targeted by the government right now. I can assure you that, surely there are more."
Can you back this up with some factual information? Would love to know more about other companies. Thanks.

"...The company had just over 3,800 staff at the end of September.." I am surprised why they need such high number of staff when the functionality of the website is limited to content, reviews, search itineraries. Unless they hire field agents and ask them go inquire and write about a new place.
