Job security is something that is fading, as the world becomes more and more borderless. The only way to remain relevant is to continually adopt new skillsets that are in demand.

There's always stories or complaints of people blasting music in their cars or houses, sometimes intentionally to tick off neighbours or patrolling policemen. Do you take action against such people?

I think most employers try to partake in some charitable affairs as they are tax-deductible. The police should be no exception, though I would like to think that they are doing it for more noble purposes. They are serving the public as their job after all.

I suppose I could go cold turkey, but it would be very hard to adjust for the first few days.

Jaywalking is dangerous in certain areas of heavy traffic, it can lead to accidents. I believe that it is right for police officers to punish recalcitrant offenders if they are caught jaywalking in high risk areas, they probably wouldn't go out of their way to issue a ticket if you crossed a...

Probably a tropical island, where I could just chill back, be one with nature and not give a care about the world.

The death penalty argument is often quoted as being a strong deterrent towards crime. When applied to extremely serious crimes like mass murdering, I think that such a punishment is acceptable.

I'd just use a microwave, much easier and no mess. In my opinion there's not much difference in taste ultimately, it just depends on how much butter, sugar and salt you put in.

Definitely possible, and I believe that it is a medical/psychological condition termed schizophrenia.

I like watching a particular cartoon featuring underwater creatures, and nowadays I still watch it with the young kids/nephews that I'm babysitting. Nickelodeon has really improved while Cartoon Network has gone downhill. Hope to see more new episodes coming out soon!

I have a digital camera somewhere gathering dust, bought it in 2005 I believe. The resolution of my phone camera is probably superior to it now, I think my old camera still works but there is absolutely zero reason for me to use it, or buy a new camera at the moment.

As much as I would love to do so, I don't think that it is practical for many of us. Many jobs require a physical presence, unless what you are doing is purely IT/programming which can be done via the Internet. There are some freelance writing/coding assignments out there, but I don't think...

I really dislike the crowds on Black Friday. I mean, people do die every year due to Black Friday crowds. With the advent of online shopping I find that online merchants also offer very nice discounts during Black Friday, I get to partake in bargain deals in the comfort of my own home instead :D

What hospital were you at? If it was a major hospital it might be likely that police were there due to incidents which require medical attention (either for their colleagues, perpetrators, or bystanders). The incidents might not necessarily have been related, it's just the sheer number of...

We might have to get used to data breaches happening, but we cannot hence see it as acceptable or unavoidable. We must place more emphasis on protecting and securing data, in this day and age information is extremely valuable and could be used for many serious crimes like blackmail, extortion...
