It’s not “just” the speed of light though, light is limited by the speed of information, also known as the speed of causality. If you were to somehow exceed that, then your future light cone becomes very messed up, and effect starts to be possible before cause.

You could never get to the void because space-time has already accelerated the edge of all matter away from you faster than the speed of light.

Well it was a more convincing solution than just having level crossing arms come down and an infinitely long train cross every time you get near the edge.

If elon is any example , being a ceo is a very low effort role, in that he’s able to be the ceo of multiple companies, while playing video games all day and posting stupid tweets, and more recently, run a government department, all at the same time.

The speed at which you are connected to the internet via your ISP is only part of the path to youtube’s content servers. You could easily have a fast connection to an ISP with a congested uplink, you could be located a long way from the nearest google CDN, or that CDN could be overloaded.

I think that depends on the nature of the work, but also whether it’s a regular pattern of being late.

Further, if you don’t need 8 hours to finish the work, then nobody should care if you’re there or not, as long as your outcomes are achieved.
- Comment on I've noticed a lot of UK job applications use the American MM/DD/YYYY date format and some also say "resume" instead of CV. Does that annoy you if you're British? 4 months ago:
I work for an international company based in the US, but I am not in the US myself. I have been trying for years to get our American colleagues to use three letter abbreviations for the month to avoid ambiguity, for example in global emails. With a couple of small exceptions, I have been unsuccessful in convincing them of the need to be clear in their written communication to people in the rest of the world.
