Things weren't particularly bad, and the UK managed to vote itself out of the EU and into recession. All you need is a single vote and a particularly apathetic populace to change the political landscape forever.

I can't picture this being much of a big deal. Sounds like we'd be talking about going from £0 yearly to £165. Electric cars already cost well into the tens of thousands. Very few people are going to balk at paying that little tax

Where in the world are you getting this data from? I'm seeing just over $100B for Missippi. The UK is $3.18T. About 2/3rd of Europe have higher GDP's, and the bottom 1/3rd are almost exclusively micro-nations or ex-sovie

I think he's implying exactly that. I don't necessarily agree with it, but there's something to be said about possibly spiking infections driven by the "we're free!" effect of long term lockdowns followed to re

If we're going on analogies, I'd be a crayfish. Happy to go as the river takes me, but I'll migrate if pickings become scarce. Avionics took me far until COVID. When the weather got stormy I was quite happy to jump ship.

It's painful. Within my late 20's age group, the number one topic of conversation seems to be a lack money. It's impossible to get my group of friends together at the moment as everyone is scraping the barrel. Most are starti

Think the wire utility shelving like you'd get in a garage or workshop but smaller (found it on Amazon), and I installed some drawer rails on the sides. The handle on the top is just some old wooden chair legs with some chain attached

I actually own one of these that run off a small solar panel and a battery. I've simply installed some "shelves" that I can pull up on rails to get access to the bottom. Dare I say, it's more convenient than my indoor st

My point wasn't about demand though. I'm well aware it flags behind SW companies by a staggering margin. A small team of SE's with enough money to buy some laptops between them can create multi-million dollars worth of value

I'm really hoping the salaries for EE type roles start to match software as the grey beards start to retire and talent becomes scarce. We've got a legion of grads going into CS, but EE classes are a fraction of that. Despite that,

To say they have not been elected is a complete falsification of our parliamentary system. The UK general populace has never voted for a PM. Party members do, and every single prime minister (bar some few exceptions) have been elected by th

The Daily Mail is such a rag of a tabloid that even Wikipedia has banned it as a source of information. They've made inroads into the US, where they aren't associated with the knowledge of the long and checkered history that the U

God can I relate with this. My college/high-school experience of Calculus was miserable. It was built on already shaky Math foundations, so I simply did not understand it at the time. I did enough past papers to memorize the sequence n

Mostly that I just find learning new things fulfilling. I want to design accelerators for Fintech applications at some point soon, hence the FPGA and Finance courses. As for the Manufacturing one, in my eyes I need to understand to full bre

I've been a hardware engineer for the past few years and I do think a lot of it seems greener on the other side. I use FPGAs and microcontrollers for a whole host of things, along with traditional electronic elements. The tools more of

I read "Etchings of a Whaling Cruise" years ago and it was gruesome enough to really stick with me. It's the accounts of a Yankee whaler in the 1800's, which Melville used it as a reference to write Moby Dick.

I suspect the same. My view is that the MiSTer FPGA crowd is very loud in the subreddits and discord channels of the world, but in reality most people using FPGAs in any significant capacity are much more tight lipped about it.

I can vouch for this. Major project that took months of my time and effort? Seemingly little impact; sometimes I question where it was just management trying to keep me busy. Minor feature added to a tool as a side project? Seems like every

Same in England, granted there's probably shared genetics in there somewhere. I was bleached blond and had bright blue eyes. Both are now about as dark a brown as you could get.

Wait... you can't read PDF's? This seems like insanity to me? Why would they not enable such a basic and fundamental feature?

"A lot of potential" is, to be frank, a tragic understatement. Quite simply, if they had actually implemented everything they presented in their marketing it would have been game of the decade. Instead, they chopped features left,

Glad I'm not the only one. I tracked the uptick in interview offers using this method, and it was nearly 4x more. Only one recruiter seemed to notice, and gave me a dressing for it. In my eyes, play stupid games, win stupid prizes (me)

The Cold War is a time period lacking in almost all real-time strategy games - hell, I can't think of any in actual fact, in any genre. The closest you ever get is Soviet based WW2 games. Company of Heroes is great, albeit not quite wh

What's ever worse is that FIDE feel justified exonerating people based on this statistical analysis alone, despite the fact there seems to be a general sense within the GM community that something is wrong and has been for a while.
