I am not without complaints over my government (United Kingdom) - but they did manage to built an online tax system, without suddenly deciding that private companies would enhance the experience. By all means fine the bejeesus out of Intuit

I can only speak for myself, but I think the answer is "No.. sortof.. it depends.. maybe?" Writing an epic and a dozen US is definitely a lot quicker for one person to do, than it is for a team to implement it. So from that side,

I've no issue with the title. It's a pretty big milestone on the journey. Non-renewables are going to be around for a very long time, as the sun and wind can't be turned up based on demand - but kind-of nice to see them releg

There are also "code adjacent" jobs. Aside from a few weeks training on an unrelated Masters I'm IT-unqualified, but got a job with an IT company making software for an industry. I started out coding, but knew I was never goi

I suspect that a great salary helps attract/retain - but (and I'm not a rockstar coder who has to worry about this) - but out of the FAANGs, Facebook on the surface looks to be the least interesting. There's the big social me

Exploitative education has been around for decades - I'm just bemused how it manages to survive in IT. And I do blame 'IT' for not snuffing it out. With a computer and an internet connection, there's more education avail

I think the important thing, is whether this is e2e manufacturing or just assembly. I mean if you can repair a phone yourself, you've got the skills to assemble a new one. What China has and what I guess India really needs, is the mass

I quite enjoyed that. Few (hopefully helpful) bits of feedback: 1) Would be nicer if it wasn't just an endless list of question cards. Maybe have new ones sliding in on the right, with answered ones going off to the left. 2) Visually s

Results are interesting - especially if they put a spotlight on something you hadn't seen - but can't come up with any reason to watch the ceremony. It would be like a soccer fan watching The World Cup, but instead of a watching s

Problem with plugins, as others don't seem to have the problem? (I know pretty much every case of my browser not working, has been due to the mottley collection of plugins I appear to have accumulated)

Now that strikes me as the most plausible - bright yellow suits with a russian flag, do seem both a 'little planned' and a 'little Ukraine related' Given that's not gone to plan, the 'erm we had a lot of yellow

I choose to see that as plausible deniability. But then there's also a great big russian flag worked into the suit. But then there's the 'why didn't they say it was college colours?" Who knows?

I don't think that's true. Credit cards, paypal and all the rest existed before bitcoin. I mean it's nifty that I can do it without a single intermediary authority, but it's not that special. I think the lack of revoca

Was just pondering if you could unionize (in a very loose way). Come up with your own set of rules that come within google's, peer review each other to ensure that you meet your own rules - then if google pulls one of you, the rest of

I'm 2 months into French on Duolingo. I did a small bit of French at school (maybe 30 years ago) and have never used it, aside from translating the odd menu. Now I'd always meant to pick it back up again, but until Duolingo I&#x2

Your DNA is the "cookbook", of what your body can make. Gene expression is what your body happens to be making (and how much) from the cookbook - and's entirely normal. I'd have reserved "Genetic changes" for a

Mine makes me wear clothes on the video conferences, despite nobody being able to see below my chest. I mean if they asked me to go into the office, I've not told them I wouldn't consider trousers.

It should - but it's not so much about a piece of land, it's about what it represents. As a non-American, the US does still seem to be a 'very patriotic country' - national anthems played for any reason, standing for fla

Well the reason the posts are cringe, is because they're all written by the people who think posting to linkedin is a good idea. A bit like Facebook - except you don't actually like any of them.

If we're offering our recommendations - Razer Basilisk ultimate is mine. (although I do like the Master as well). I think the important thing is that there is 'no mouse for everyone' - we have different sized mitts, all hold

Yes - you can dump out your passwords from lastpass as a CSV and slurp them straight into Bitwarden. I switched from Lastpass when they started demanding more money - and whilst not perfect, am very happy with Bitwarden. Functionality is al

It's good stuff - but not cheap. For decking where you're going to have to clean it yearly anyway, I wouldn't bother (no real effort to just add on some maintenance) - and probably works out cheaper even with a few replacemen

I'm not sure how good a deal this really is. I can definitely see why MS bought up publishers and developers to add to their stable - they can now, like Netflix, sell a monthly recurrent service that will keep their customers entertain
