This was especially true with the old metal based fillings (gold, silver, etc). The metal contracts and expands a miniscule amount with heat and cold. Eventually they end up cracking the tooth. The larger the filling, the worse it is.
I am on crown #5 because of that asshole dentist when I was 23. Oh and a nice plus is they were extremely sensitive to temperature and randomly hurt like hell. At $1000 per crown it's not fun on the pocket book.
They are doing a major release every year. . Then they do 2-5 feature releases every year. The they do constant bug fix releases/and security updates.
Often they change shit just for the sake of changing shit with no apparent rhyme or reason. I tried to figure out how to multi-task on my work iPad. Every release they change it and it's all hidden commands. I finally just disabled multi-tasking and use my phone as an extra screen.
It's seriously much worse than my android phones. On my pixel I install a launcher, set it up how I like it and never see most of the changes between versions.
From a purely military perspective, active combat creates expertise at all levels in a military organization. Those that survive improve. This remains true until the losses outcompete the ability of the military to train replacements.
NATO forces have little experience with the type of war that Ukraine is facing. How do you fight all the inexpensive drones being mass produced? These drones have proven to be able to damage or destroy just about everything on the battlefield.
It's a whole different war that will lead to rapid developments in new ways to kill each other for several decades.
The most efficient way to get NATO troops trained in this new war is to send troops to Ukraine. I suspect this may be one of the reasons that North Korea is sending troops to Ukraine.
I think that the data Ukraine has on Russian losses is better than in any previous conflict. The drones are constantly flying over the battlefield recording.
I also think that Ukraine has significant political reasons for attempting to be reasonably accurate. They rely on NATO for money, weapons, and supplies. They need to provide an reasonably accurate representation of what they are doing with the resources to keep their suppliers happy.
It doesn't need to be exact, just a reasonable estimate made in good faith.

Depends on the individual curcumstances.
Not a lawyer, but have had way to many trainings on unemployment law over the years.
Circumstance 1: An employee moved further away from the office and can no longer feesibly make the commute to the office. Back to office mandates would be a change in the primary work location. The employee would qualify unemployment even if they "quit". This is the same for people who started remotely.
Circumstance 2: The employee became the primary caregiver of children or a relative due to the flexibility allowed in working from home. A back to the office mandate would not allow them to continue this. The employee can argue for unemployment due to a change in the required work schedule (my wife successfully did this back in 2010).
Circumstance 3: This one is a bit harder. The employee has performed their job superbly from home. They clearly and openly (preferably in writing) have stated they will not work in the office. The company has a back to the office mandate and then fires the employee for not showing up. The employee can argue this was a creative firing and the employer is on the hook for unemployment. The employee must have evidence that managers were aware of their unwillingness to work from the office prior to the mandate.
Ending the decade with a global depression.
It also looks like a FPV drone hit the trees near the shooter. With him standing up like that he possibly caught some shrapnel from it. Maybe one of the shooters buddies was in the trees ate that explosion.
Record high estimated numbers of Russian casualties reported on the same day as well.

I upgraded from Windows XP to Vista after the 2nd servicepack fixed most of the shit. By that point it was a tolerable OS.
I am currently hoping for a major service pack next year to fix all the stupid shit they did in Windows 11.
You know kind of like when they fucked up windows 8, attempted a quick fix in 8.1 and finally fixed it in win10.
Of course they are at 4 major updates with win11 and it's still shit so the hope is very thin.
When I was going to college I worked with a lady who had her bachelor's in psychology. We were working in a warehouse unloading trailers together. That was a lesson I took to heart.
When I declared my major it was in for something with lots of job possibilities.
Layoffs are common very large companies because of how they operate.
Although they start as innovative companies once they hit a certain size threshold internal inertia prevents any significant innovation.
In order to maintain growth they must buy smaller innovative companies and capitalize on the innovation using their vaster resources.
After they have sucked every last bit of money the purchased innovation, they layoff employees they purchase with the innovative company and all those they added in its ramp up.
They then go on the hunt to purchase the next smaller innovative company.
Mega corporations are a parasite on the economy.
