In a large enough kitchen you have both! In a smaller kitchen it’s more likely that the dishwasher will be sacrificed than the washing machine (since it can be replaced with a sink)

When I worked in the UK (3 jobs over eight years) I was never asked to do that; the closest was that I was ask to sign as to whether the 48h/week limit would apply week-by-week, or averaged out over 17 weeks (as per the regulations).

Respectfully disagree. At the very least from what I recall there are sections of songs and poems which made my eyes glaze over and just skip. I think one of the best things the LotR films did was to distill the story down into its best par

I think it would be illegal in the UK/EU - you are required to have at least 11 hours rest in any 24 hour period, and only 8 hours of night work in any 24 hour period. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_Time_Dir

I can't speak for Paris, but often in UK apartments the washing machine will be in the kitchen under the counter, so above them is counter-space.

For this use case would it then be faster to simply download a new VM image each time you needed Windows? That is to say if Microsoft creates images with all the required patched applied?

I wonder if the patterns of letters in English language usage would still yield predictable patterns of left-and-right. Like naively 'the' is more common than 'zzz', so right-left-left may be more common than right-right

If you keep your LEGO sorted then many builders suggest sorting by part rather than by colour - its a lot easier to identify a pink vs. hot pink 1x4 brick, rather than to find the 1x4 brick in your hot pink box. However, sorting by part can

That's likely to introduce bias because the probability of the two halves aren't equal... My initial instinct would be that the latter half would be less likely (since it has Q, X, Z), but maybe not - as a rule of thumb the most c

I believe this was the 'official' strategy of some early arctic / antarctic expeditions. Kill the sledge dogs and feed them to the other dogs plus humans.

Arguably, during your last two weeks that is your job - the entirety of your job. So not additional pay, but your final pay check is for doing just that.

I think it's very dependent on the business. In a couple of minutes research I saw one site which estimated the average CC cost to be 2.08 USD versus 0.30 USD for cash, whilst another site estimated the cost of cash handling to be anyt

> cash users don't need to subsidize cc users. I doubt this is the case; it's easy to see the costs associated with taking a credit card because they are all upfront - e.g. a card may charge 1-5% plus a fixed fee. However the c

Whilst the outcome of the simple English wikipedia may agree with this, the intention is different; I believe the articles in simple English could (and should) be as long as the regular articles, but written with a reduced and simpler vocab

This feels like a good effort at making a jigsaw puzzle which is optimally simple to complete - although I think each piece is identical which may increase complexity.

Is there anything similar for Latin characters? The only circumstance I can imagine is where a Latin character has been erroneously encoded with an unused diacritic, for instance a T with a diaeresis.
