I think there's an implicit assumption here that because Americans pay the costs of tariffs it means there isn't a knock on impact (where for instance goods from other countries aren't bought, in preference of US local goods)

I'm not sure it is wrong. I'd have no path to UAE citizenship, nor do I particularly want one, I'd likely have lower wages. And I'd still like to live there more than most places.

I love Linux, it was all I ran for years. But, unfortunately, I needed the better hardware more and haven't been able to find a viable way back.

It's not a conspiracy that the elections did not happen and have not happened.

It only becomes false to say they've been cancelled if they happen. They're planning on postponing them again, and if that continues to happen indefinitely, they've been cancelled. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news&#

Not sure that works though for flogging, say, client IP to affluency data to advertisers, unless they can already reliably pinpoint the client IP to an address (which for all I know, maybe they can).

Neat. Amazes me that the Russians always seem to have the capacity for this sort of, I can't think of a clean word, let's inadequately say gamesmanship. When I'd have thought they have enough on their plate in Ukraine.

With apologies to our American friends, Jeremy Clarkson had a take on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7kXUbwngB4 Somewhere in there, I think he does have a point.

A lot I expect. There were stories about VPNs being top of the App Store, etc. when the law kicked in. Lots of people using Brave's Tor or Opera's VPN in their browsers, and free VPNs like Proton (which seems like a negative secur

I changed jobs in '08, '10 and was contracting by '11. Didn't notice any downturn from 2008 at all. I'd only once in 20 years been turned down for a job I'd applied for. Every other job I applied for I was offe

Seems like groundhog day, although I'm not sure I remember anyone telling me that software engineers were on borrowed time until relatively recently and I'd largely ignored it. Yet one thing does seem different for anyone who just

In the FAQs: Is the software open source? Yes. Our control application, Korova, will be fully open source and maintained long term. It’s a native, lightweight application for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

20 people given a take home test for one role? I get icky feelings about these. Clearly, 18 out of 20 submitted something so I guess most people go along with it and perhaps I'm an outlier.

There's so much duplication, or overlap at least. Despite being a software dev and more invested than the average person, I don't feel like there are that many websites or applications I use really. But there are the best part o

I interviewed for a cybersecurity position with BA a little while back, it was a bit odd in general. I mentioned a few issues I thought were serious holes on their website, equivalent to the breach they ended up being fined for. They said a

I don't think these laws are being made with the will of the people. There's been no groundswell of opinion, no technically minded authority pushing expert opinion. The same people lobbying for the online safety act were pushing a

I think the picture of how the UK came to be what is today is a bit more complicated than just that take. Are you ok with living in a country where the state has turned a blind eye to widespread grooming gangs? Nowhere is perfect, to say th
