    At work we're moving from on-prem to the cloud and it's been super interesting and educational so far because there's a couple of requirements that provide a challenge for the project

    The remote in US/Canada has most likely to do with taxes and/or regulations. If a company isn't setup for that it can get really annoying for both parties

    While Humans may appear cute and their fangs are indeed small and pretty harmless looking, one should always take the required precautions when interacting with Humans.

    While there are a relative low number of reported cases of Humans biting (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK430764/), if a Human bites, you should be catious because Human bites can be seriously dangerous( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2776367/).

    Better to not pet any stray/strange/wild/unknown animals!
