"it depends"

Some bits are self explanatory (sales, marketing, ...). Chances are most of the "brains" of Google (coders and the like) fall under R&D since that is often taxed more favourably. A lot of staff, particularly the people who literally keep the lights on (anyone who works on data centre hardware) will fall under cost of revenue.

>Whats the difference b/w cost of revenue and operating expenses?? Is one hard assets and the other labor/personnel related??

Cost of revenue contains costs that are directly needed to produce and distribute the product/service. If you are an internet software company, you need to run servers, you might need to compensate the creators on your platform (this is the case for YouTube) and you might need to pay moderators to moderate your social network. These things are "cost of revenue".

Costs for, say, management salaries or R&D engineers are not directly needed to keep the product/service running, so they are operating expenses.

Yes. As Pole I can confirm, that in here people are very often afraid of what they don't know. It's just due to historical experience for last 250 years when politically and socially we have had unwanted superiors. Like after ww2 communists from russia who have done everything to society to be afraid of nearest neighbours, friends and family.

Poland is historically one of few countries that allowed since middle ages Jews Muslims and all various Christians live on it's lands and have equal or almost equal rights. Poland had elections for the king since XVI century so it was some kind of democracy.

We were very liberal I think, and that was something that our imperialistic neighbours used to conflict the nation in XVIII and take our lands.

It seems like your mood is doing better, glad to see it! I actually love the way this is set up, and downloaded the app after seeing this. Put my first entry and I'm shocked there isn't an event for "Holiday". Im jewish and there are alot of jewish holidays, would this be possible to add? Just yesterday was Tu Bishvat, the birthday of the trees, and I'd like to add that as something that influenced my mood!
