Would David Chase have written Livia Soprano to cooperate with the FBI against Tony if not for Nancy Marchand's death IRL?

So, in S03 we see that Tony visits his mother and tells her not to discuss anything about the ticket fraud scheme for which she was caught in S02 ending. Livia just waves it off. But, would David Chase have gone ahead and used her against Tony if not for the Nancy Marchand's death?

What is our answer to PLAAFs ever increasing LRSOW that stands well behind our defensive envelope?

With PLAAF increasing their LRSOW missile arsenals substantially over the past few years, we are still heavily reliant on our only ALCM which is BrahMos and other SSM which is effectively shorter in range compared to these. So, what is our answer to this ever growing threat? IAF and other experts have effectively negated the possibility of IAF opting for a strategic or tactical bomber. Our only program in this vicinity is the Ghatak UCAV which has SAAW, Small PGMs and possible BrahMos-NG integration in the future.

H-6 Bomber which can carry CH-AS-X-13 ALBM, KD-21 ALBM and CJ-20 ALCM with ranges of 1500 km+

CH-AS-X-13 ALBM with an estimated range of 2500 to 3000 km

KD-21 ALBM with an estimated range of 1500 to 2000 km

CJ-20 ALCM with an estimated range of 2000+ km

S-400 with 400 km range placed in Siliguri and Uttarakhand doesn't cover the launch ranges. Circle dimensions are 1500, 2000, 2500 and 3000 km respectively.

Employer exploitation: Moral dilemma of a newly employed guy that was out of a job for a while

So, I joined this company and I manage a team of 50+ people. My boss and his boss want the staff to be ready for transportation by 05:30 AM for their duty which begins at 06:30 AM. However, they delay the pick up time in the evening from 1 to 2 hours following which they are stuck in traffic for another 1 hour or more. By the time they reach the staff accommodation, it is well after 09:00 or 09:30 PM. The entire building has one kitchen with 4 gas stoves for 80 people. It's a battle royal every night for who gets to cook first and by the time the last person finishes cooking, it is well after 01:00 AM. Now, they have to rest for only 3 to 4 hours, wake up, get ready and report for a 12 hour duty with one day off in a week for which they get paid around 1K to 1.5K. Employee welfare does not exist and I feel bad for these people.

On one hand I want to stay in this job that I got after struggling a bit, especially in this job market. On the other hand, I want to quit based on the way the employees are treated. They are in a legal grey area where technically they are working only for the allocated duty hours as mentioned on their MOHRE offer letter. But, in reality they are on the clock for close to 16 hours.
