My company announced RTO the same day Amazon did. The Union is up in arms, but honestly the powers that be are handling it pretty well. My boss is happily going to the office for a couple of days a week. She's a million miles from enforcing it on us though. Exceptions are already in place for people like me (3 hour TGV ride from the nearest office) and even a few people who just said "I really don't want to".

I'm sure a few people will leave and not be replaced, but perhaps they were just dead weight anyway. I couple that I know about definitely are.

I know, but my point is that sort of parent has no desire to do so.

Is the sort of parent who gives a 5 year old their own phone going really going to a limit the use? I think the crossover in that Venn diagram is pretty small.

What you have just described could be ZigBee and/or MQTT.

No, going overnight from running at a massive loss to "time to make loads of cash" is what ruins everything.

I've had beetles on the forehead while road cycling. Even at 40km/h that seriously hurts. Wouldn't want it to happen at 100!

Shame, one of my favourite workplace proximity associates is called Kyle.

Do they still do the free tier that gives 10 pages a month?

50% of 0 == 0 :)

Easy workaround: live in the countryside with no neighbours.

Yeah, for a living room TV the only option is either "digital signage" or no network.

I'll just stick to not connecting my TV to the network.

Will he cancel it though? Or will "Trump Trains" become a thing?

The US invented neither trains nor cars.

It is true the US was basically built on railroads, so I agree that it should have an awesome network, but it is just too big. Even if France ships you all a bunch of TGVs it will take days to go from NYC to LA. Something that takes hours by plane.
