This has never been necessary for an IPO.

It's in the form of stock options, which won't be worth any particularly noteworthy amount unless the IPO goes really well.

Their attempt to maliciously comply is both against the spirit of the law - making it a violation in the EU regardless - and the letter of the law: the text mentions that they can't charge for this.

Time for a nice 10% of global revenues-fine. That'll do some good in the coffers of the EU.

I mean, it worked well as a child and teenager, why wouldn't it just continue to work? Kind of unfair if you ask me

Staying active helps mitigate this issue. Not fully, but it helps.

Among the ways you can do layoffs, this is one of the better ones for sure. People who are kind of checked out already anyway can get a nice paycheck on their way out and start looking for something new, while people who still have something important to get out of the job get the option to stay.

Consent matters!

Verbal communication is naturally a last resort if your fellow passenger does not pick up on your non-verbal cues.

This naturally also comes with the responsibility of not accidentally showing non-verbal cues and making someone think you need to get off and as such leave their seat.

Hey, that's not fair. We have a plethora of "ushekta"s to employ in various transit-related scenarios:

  • I want to sit here, please jump in/remove your backpack/whatever
  • I need to get off here, please allow me to exit my seat
  • I bumped into you, sorry about that
  • The bus is getting full and you need to move back to make space for more people

We live in a society after all

Agreed again. Keep fighting the good fight friend

I don't always agree with everything you post, but this is >100% on point.

Unlikely. It's in all likelihood just a bad business, like so many other VC-subsidised businesses that have come before them. Case in point: Uber, Airbnb, WeWork.

The whole game is to offer services at a loss for enough time to lock in customers, then raise the prices in the future.

It's a really bad idea to try to hire at this point to try to remedy a scaling issue. They are likely already low on resources dealing with the problems, having to try to onboard someone at this point will make the problem worse - see Brooks' Law from The Mythical Man-Month.
