Can you give an example, please? ("They take "being a good person" so far that they make life hard for others instead.", for example is a bit vague - that could apply to pious Christians, you're not against Christia

OK, I'm still a little unclear - can you give me a concrete example of a such a news story? And, perhaps to clarify further, do you consider yourself woke, or anti-woke?

OK, thank you for clarifying. So "wokes" are people who are 'alert to racial prejudice and discrimination'. > newspaper should not report things that are happening but are wrong for wokes, they should only report thin

> things that are happening but are wrong for wokes I'll admit that I found parsing the whole comment rather difficult so I may have missed something, but what are "wokes"?

I would imagine that it's a fairly simple matter of probability: The more cases the greater the chance of mutations. The more mutations the greate the chance of nasty variant.

More fool you. It's not even the crime, it's the lying. You trust liars.

So much of not a big deal that Douglas Ross (leader of the Scottish Conservatives), as wel as numerous other Tory MPs said that the PM would need to resign if it turned out that he attended. Why is it that you enjoy being lied to?

Yeeees, PM lies and obfuscates, and lies some more and tells half-truths and hides behind an investigation to find out what HE was was doing (rather than just simply say if he went or not). But it's Labour that looks bad .... right-so

I can't read all of those because of stupid geo restrictions, but it looks like most of those were "advice" rather than law. This was most certainly against the actual law that the PM himself brought in.

If you're a genius, you're a genius - an average teacher would be able to point you in the direction of the more specialised coaching that would benefit you. For the kind of people who don't seem to be able to weigh up basic

Because they are the ones who will see the biggest benefit from a good teacher. And concomitantly your country will benefit from a higher level of preficiency in maths of the population.

I've been working on a distrbuted Layer 2/4 Load Balancer (like Katran, but no C++ involved) that's mostly complete but now needs some testing with large workloads (1m+ concurrents, >50Gbps). Guinea pigs sought.

Yes. Also I thought of when I have created a Domain in Postgres ( https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/sql-createdomain.html ) with a constraint written in PL/Perl to ensure that the data going in is always vali

That story has nothing to do with IR35. Really, I could swear you were a right-wing troll trying to get me to care less about employee rights by being so obscure about it all.

The site you reference reeks of disingenuity, so I shall regard your arguments with a great degree of skepticism. Which is annoying, as I am very uncomfortable with the march towards zero hour contracts and the like - if you are genuine and

Thank you for clarifying. But how would IR35 apply in this case - she was an employee anyway, not a contractor and did not have her own limited company.
