Electrics go down and don’t come back up -> petrol/gas stations stop working -> supply chains break down, including for food -> mass starvation. Exactly how many people you expect to die will depend on your assumptions. Also o

“Plans are useless, planning is everything.” Agile means you can drop what you’re working on at the drop of a hat when you discover that something else is higher priority. It doesn’t mean you shouldn’t plan. Aha and their ilk are basically

I do most of my browsing from my phone. On my phone, his site displays perfectly fine. (Apart from the table… mostly because of the colours (black on dark red is illegible), which I guess is supporting evidence for his stance, but also beca

I dunno. Do they? How does it cope when there’s no reception?

Related: is there any evidence that this sort of testing actually works (reduces engagement with genuine phishes/spam)? Corporate information security training feels like someone guessed at what should work, without checking that their

I guess you’re asking about 25% on the assumption that benefits (e.g. equity, health insurance) would be unchanged?

Horses for courses. My house has around 100sqft, so I’d be looking at about £10k for this. At which point, why not instead get a heat pump system that can also provide cooling? I can see that infrared fabric would be a better trade off for
