Sadly, the biggest employer motivation is some have very long leases and don’t want to look stupid to the board for having signed up for useless office space with a decade still on their lease.
Others are motivated by ego, being able to walk down isles watching their minions tools away.
However, never meeting people IRL definitely reduces collaboration and performance on highly iterative and collaborative projects compared to everyone going and meeting IRL.
Meeting at least quarterly for 3-4 days can make things work, but time in an office is better. Again, if you work on a team. If you are and IC, quarterly if probably fine or entirely remote might be fine too.

These days sendgrid is the highest followed by Google and mailgun, Microsoft used to be on top but they seem to have dealt with it a little (anecdotal logging for mail servers I manage)
In fact Postmark only supported transactional email (and had an approval process) in the past. It looks like they dropped that to pursue a larger market, with predictable consequences.
If it is a physical document, you can draw a line through it before you sign it.

I think it may be one of those quotes that always has an earlier usage to find. According to https://thecritic.co.uk/this-too-shall-pass/, Lincoln was quoting Rumi, who was (probably apocryphally) quoting Solomon.
I love how they call it a budget surplus, it isn’t. It is as you say, residents were over taxed by $100B, which won’t be returned to them. Which is terrible government, not good-great government.
