Wasn't the USSR first in space? First ICBM , first artificial satellite, first man in space etc?

Apple didn't buy the apps from the developers, they provide a marketplace. Don't most supermarkets own their inventory?

Especially in that region, I would take this vote rather as an indicator of the lack of alternatives. Amazon is so large that they could simply scrap that location without being that bothered, yet the workers do not have that freedom. The choice is between taking what you can get even if it is tied to bad working conditions or having nothing at all.

It's a shame that the third way to spend the money is totally forgotten now apparently. Yes you can re-invest, give back to shareholders, but why not increase wages?

A hosted Nextcloud with OnlyOffice/Collabora and a Mail Server? There's quite a few providers for that.

Selimchan Changoschwili was shot in broad day light in Berlin Tiergarten, allegedly by russian agencies.

Unions are not only about compensation but also terms of employment. I see enough discussions on HN about non-competes, forced arbitration etc. where unionising would help.

Is that really a realistic driver scenario or was that the nice story told by Uber? From my (limited) experience with Uber drivers, none of them only "drove an extra 15min out of their way" on their normal commute, nothing even close to it. It was a job like any other for them.
