Disagree. The purpose of the indicator is to signal your intention to others. Indicate first, then shoulder check. If you then discover a car in your blind spot, abort the manoeuvre if necessary or slow down to let them pass you first. I do

This is great news for me. Recently I have been trying to set up a simple solution to replicate a MySQL database into DuckDB, without the whole CDC shebang (kafka, debezium etc.). The biggest problem I faced was the fact that cascaded opera

This. And I do their work a lot more slowly because it's not my regular job, and I actually already had to do some of the work (getting the items out of my trolley and onto the conveyor). Now I stand there forever fumbling with barcode

Just as another data point, I think the word 'deliberate' is entirely appropriate as it differentiates between 'casual' practice (e.g. just playing through a bunch of songs and hoping you get better) vs deliberate practi

We do have some ISA browns which are 2-3 years old, but no lash eggs yet – they all seem pretty happy – I guess it just depends. That said, I'm not that emotionally attached to them – I like them, care for them, but if I thought they w

Just to offer a different experience, we've kept chooks for years and it's been great. However, we do have a large yard where they are free to range around – I think this is key. In my experience there is no need to kill a chook a

You are not alone at all, I also prefer singular names for the same reason. I reserve plural names for the rare cases where the single row of a table actually contains information about more than one item, which is usually when I'm doi

Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, or by the

My grandmother, who was fit and healthy into her 90s, used to chuckle at the idea of "exercising". I now understand where she was coming from – a simple active lifestyle can be all the exercise one needs. These days I live in a ru

I always experienced them 'back-to-front' as well, and I believe it is what happens if your eyes are focusing on a point in front of the picture ('cross-eyed') instead of a point behind it. With a lot of effort, I ca

> We need car control every bit as much as gun control, and speed cameras are a big part of that. People die when drivers are left unchecked. Disproportionately, it's people not inside cars. I agree completely. To be honest, from a
