Not to be dismissive, but would these challenger banks (Monzo, Revolut, N26, TransferWise) survive once the regular banks and AmEx stop adding fees on top of foreign-currency charges and withdrawals? I personally don't see any other di

Not to challenge your distaste, but insofar as more among us use it to talk about and organise around public issues, it is a de facto public space and has a public utility. Just to give a micro example, last month parents at my kids' p

The service is essentially public, like education, health, and roads. We would benefit if it could be managed and paid for publicly. The only issue is that Facebook's scope is transnational, so you can't solve this locally or nati

You have no ISBN, right? It's fascinating that this bookseller took the time to create by hand an entry for your book in Amazon's product database. In a way, not even not having an ISBN is a sure way to "withdraw from the int

Listers are not exactly gallerists (I presume?) so probably meant valued, valuable by rare. Is that not what Picasso translates to in the public imagination? On a different note, how can you buy without confirming authenticity?

I suppose this way they could start learning when you're (likelier to be) home and tweak delivery times to happen then. Just reading comments here, you can anecdotally see there's a lot of inefficiency caused by courier attempting

You could choose to have it delivered at a pick-up location. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeI... If you're living in a bad area, Royal Mail will lose your mail as well.
