If I read the article right it sounds like there was no one there and it was a closed business he broke in to.

This is unrelated to your post but I love your desktop, how did you make it like that?

Ok... Really they removed that part or are you being sarcastic? I can't tell.

Witness testimony is also known to be flaky. We are entering a world where video can be faked(probably easy to tell currently if it's fake but in a few years...).

Short of a confession(which honestly has its own concerns regarding how it was obtained, knowledge of their rights etc) , what are actually good evidence of someone's guilt?

I can see possession crimes(the officer searched you and found meth hidden inside your sock) or financial (you claimed to have this asset and used it as collateral for a loan but that asset really belonged to your sister's husband) but for example rape and murder cases what can be used as solid evidence?

I am from the USA and I agree with the other poster that our Healthcare is crap. That said it annoying to see people bring stuff like that up in topics completely unrelated. Especially it's not like we have a choice where we were born and most of us only have limited abilities to change Healthcare system through votes.

It would be like saying "what's the u in colour for? U are never getting back your plundered treasures we stole?" to somebody in England asking about learning to paint.

I just did a Google search of countries that still use Fahrenheit and found this https://a-z-animals.com/blog/discover-the-countries-that-use-fahrenheit-for-measuring-temperature/

I don't know about that. I work a office job and often deal with people from all over the world. Getting everyone online at the same time for a meeting or phone call is really difficult.

Yes I can send emails but sending an email and not getting a response till next morning really eats into timelines.

We can have video meetings and phone calls and share screens so I fully understand WFH and support it. That said having no requirements for work time I think would be really bad.

You don't know that. I could live in Belize or Montserrat or even the Turkish Republic of Northern Cypress...
