But don't they all beep/rotate the cone even when the button hasn't been pressed? The ones near me (in the UK) which are on a junction and operate cyclically (in conjunction with a couple of sets of traffic lights) certainly

Obviously you don't have to use any of those features, they won't slow your app down just by being available (maybe a tiny overhead in distributed code size, but meh). - auto updates : primarily useful for commercial software that

That's not been true for a long time. The only "preferential creditor" in the UK now are employees, HMRC take their chances with all other debtors.

I think it's his actions in publicly "outing" himself that the parent is referring to rather than being gay itself. Dealing with prejudice like homophobia head-on is something most CEOs aren't well known for.
