I promise you that 99% of normal people have no idea what the Wikimedia foundation is and think that they're just donating to "fund Wikipedia".

How is this an "optimization" if the compiled result is incorrect? Why would you design a compiler that can produce errors?

Not remotely. Maybe I'm just not working on big enough projects, but I've never experienced any frustration at all with Elixir compile times.

All the more reason for them to stay in France. The humane option is still available. It’s not too late to take it. But if you keep refusing it, don’t complain when you get something else.

It's a popular stereotype in the UK (although it only seems to have arisen in the last year or so) that "Turkish barbershops" are a front for money laundering. They're certainly suspicious: all across the country, high s

On paper, the punishment for hiring illegal labour is £45k per worker for the first offence and up to £60k for repeat offences[0]. That's enough to ruin a small business. Whether or not these laws are actually enforced is another matte

“Nothing much seems to be working” because the government is completely unserious about stopping the boats and is unwilling to do any of the things that might actually work. They could stop them in a week if they actually wanted to.

We have a “national insurance number” used for tax purposes but it’s just a number that you fill in in forms; no-one asks to see the cards. I’m not sure they even issue the physical cards anymore? I lost mine a long time ago.

I suppose it's easier to achieve "growth" in percentage terms when you're starting from a low baseline (because your entire country got flattened by invading armies.)

What point do you think you’re responding to exactly? GP mentioned “abandoning your parents” when you immigrate as if that’s absurd. In reality it’s the most normal thing imaginable. I know hundreds of people who live outside their home cou
