Well the Tesla is not a very available car ( it still take months to get your Tesla ) and the Tesla range of services is not that great in Europe. As for the price point, it is also way outside the price range regular European pay for a car

I would put that at 8 hours. Unless Spain is especially badly connected, you are quickly at least 2 hours away from the airport. So that would be at least 4 hours slow transit + flight time. Of course, by population density, you are probabl

The main take away message though is the proper isolation you get in the Apple one. And that's the actual conclusion of the author. Don't buy the other one, not because the extra stuff in the Apple one is worth it but because the

You have a dedicated host to run VM but you don't really have access to the host OS and cannot run custom code on it. Previously, your VM were allocated to a host as Amazon saw fit.

It does not mean they didn't have a reason to get up in the morning, just that those reasons were unrelated to the business line they "worked" in. I have known a bunch of such people, in a variety of mostly governmental jobs

Can't really take spec literally anyway. Even at equal build quality, that phone does not need to work in a 2007 environment. The original iPhone in 2008 could run everything that was available in the App store with almost the best exp

It is interesting that in Europe, buying a car means going to the factory-franchised dealer, order and wait several months to get your car. The only car I bought new took 6 months to be delivered and that car model had existed for over 2 ye

In real world, if your regular cleaner calls in sick, you don't pay for that visit. If you really need some cleaning done you talk to him to come a few days before the usual scheduled date. It is a 1:1 relationship and often with the c

Even more strictly speaking, that's a trend. In my area, the cheapest you can find still in inner London, the average price of a 2 bed is 300K and new flats are 500K and up. All but 1 landlord in my building bought their flat since 200

There is a lot of social estates in London. There are area like East Dulwich where you are either living in the estate and pay fuck all (while you qualify), or you can afford 1 million+ to buy a place. So that's a weird mix where the r

The article was calling for that kind of comment. However, there is still a good point in there. Since last time the general public have taken the brunt of the crisis, what kind of lesson did we want the bank to remember ? The article shoul

To have a massive loss in resale value, it would need to affect the car reliability. Government action against car owners is unlikely for the very reason you list (i.e. it would only affect primarily the victim), and the yearly emission che
