In fairness, French password requirements include one uppercase, one number, and three letters you don’t pronounce.

Bluetooth was disabled but the USB port... wasn't?

A drop in the bucket compared to how much they normally transact, but it sounds like good PR.

I'm looking for a new position and the thing I dread most is the inevitable "how many days will you be in the office?" question. I get more done at home, I actually gasp like my spouse and appreciate the time to have lunch or start dinner while on a meeting, and generally feeling like life matters more than just the company I work for.

I'll admit I miss the camaraderie, but when I look back on places I've worked, how many of those were my actual friends and not just people I've worked with? I look at remote work as a way to acknowledge in my own life what really matters, and it's more the time I have with people I love. Not until the past two years did I really understand the execs who "made it" and then quit to just be a ski bum or open a coffee shop... but being one of the execs who "made it" absolutely makes me just want to quit and be a ski bum or coffee shop.
