Ha, can you imagine if TikTok did this in reverse.

Yes I'm sure they've considered doing that as it seems so obvious. I would also think that the use of any one account was very region specific so could you actually base their whole data out near them. Be interesting to hear how t

You're talking in a city centric way so you need to make sure your solutions are targeted. Plenty of people don't live in cities and their whole way of life is enabled by the automobile in a way that isn't experienced by city

1 million cancel broadband in a year? The entire population is like 65M so the number of BB connections is going to be what, <10M? And 10% of them cancelled and didn’t renew in a 1 year period? Doesn’t pass smell test for me.

They're doing a massive build out of fibre to the premises (replacing old copper) and VOIP at the moment so I guess it makes sense that they'd need a lot fewer people once that's complete. They're assuming the new fibre

That the systems are equilibrium finding and that said equilibrium will be ‘amazing’ are both quite bold assumptions.

I don't think long term pessimism has amazing results either.

I feel like the general mood is too risk averse for big projects like this at the moment. I hope I'm proved wrong though. I miss an age of optimism.

Don't forget that the Model S is over 10 years old now, excepting a refresh here and there and sales seem to be slumping year on year for a while now. The X isn't that old yet but it has a lot more competition now and quite low sa

Interestint point. If you were logged into both but only counting one set of hours wouldn't that bring your average hourly wage up?

According to the study it includes hours spent logged on waiting for jobs, which I think is a correct and meaningful way to measure it. I guess this is mostly people trying to top up their primary income. https://www.bristol.ac.u

Problems that do not exist? The Internet is the absolute wild west of crime and harm.

I have a customer still on Notes. They have a whole big CRM and sales planning system built in it so they have a degree of lock in. It's kind of modern ish with an iOS app (HCL Verse) and 2FA. Works for them.

Yes it’s a passive aggressive way to get Edge’s numbers up. You have to take action to make it obey your previously stated preference.

Strange choice linking to the Mirror version of this story.

There seem to be plenty on Amazon just not USB-C, which is a shame for the manufacturers who don't include USB-A sockets any more :( WiFi dongles are worth considering even though the wifi is a potential bottleneck. In most travel situ

I've worked with a lot of the same local businesses for nearly 20 years and it's definitely true that the business rises to the level where the owner isn't willing to let go any more, if that makes sense. You have to surround

More complicated still, defender does not completely stop working when 3rd party AV is installed. Also maybe Firefox is not the only app triggering this bug?

It’s hard to really quantify how big of an issue this is in my head, I mean a set of tyres will do 20,000+ miles and only loose a small percentage of their mass while doing so. How much damage is really being done? How much scope for improv

That's a really interesting concept, that increased efficiency then drives greater use which more than negates the increased efficiency. Like if petrol was super expensive and EV's cheap, you would just go back to using your car m

Even around the small towns here I've had more than a few instances of black-wearing people flying between cars at night on these things. Your only defense is to have a dash cam to defend yourself when the inevitable happens I guess.

I love Peter Saville's art; don't want to post an amazon link but there are some really good coffee table books of his stuff.

Yeah as someone who’s had job ads out recently if they have 1 qualified out of 31 they’re doing well!

London based as well. You’d earn more in Pret-a-Manger. Wages always put me off gov jobs as well as the bureaucracy.

HP printers are absolutely awful now in terms of their PITA setup, obtuse smart setup exe’s instead of drivers, stupid drm or subscription lock stuff like this. We do not supply or recommend them any more (IT company).

The thing with the HDD beating SSD's is that this is pure sequential writes, no seeking involved, which is quite rare in real life. If this was random smaller writes the HDD would be awful.

I think there might be room for a phone that only has those top 5-10 apps on it, out of the box, even if just a PWA at first. Instead of trying to be everything to everyone and adding a ton of complication that non-technical people don&#x
