From my personal observation people with responsibiltes grieve at a later time and don't like most at the the of the incicent. It takes about 3 months to grieve some cases about a year later.

Enforcing staying at job via law enforcement is the definition of slavery. If people want to quit for higher wages let them. Market will move to equilibrium.

My experience in image to text conversion softwares has not given confidence to use in production or as part of reliable workflow. What's unique or different about this tool compared to its predecessors? Does it use any novel algorithms, neural nets or any other techniques?

Humans started to stay in one location after the invention of agriculture which is quite recent about 10000 years. The mass gathering and agriculture Only after the invention of agriculture some people were able to have leisure time and mass organization became necessary. Bible is roughly 2000 years old. Islam is probably 800 years old. The vedic caste Hinduism is about probably 600 to 800 years old.

You don't understand what you have taken for granted. In the name of hindu religion, citing the vedas education has been denied to all non-brahmins(other than priestly caste) until Britishers arrived. This is the reason majority of the indians are first college goers in their family. For us what you described is the definition of heaven.

But it's not shocking in the Muslim world. They do it to themselves much worse in the name of Islam. That is different compared to non-Muslim countries.

Is Joelspolsky overrated ? There is no public code available to verify his competency like JohnCarmack. His writings are more about marketing and general technical knowledge. In my opinion he is overrated.

The only thing that bugs me about him is his take on religion. He claims he is not muslim but on multiple occasions he defends Islam and also he is mildly anti Jewish. He is against Richard Dawkins stating his math is wrong. I could not find the source of the problem that Richard Dawkins made an error in calculating. If somebodycan point out to math problem preferably if the problem is in python notebook for verification,that would be great
