If someone puts a low rank admin assistant in charge then the boss needs prosecuting. It would be the public sector version of getting the boss's nephew to do it.

Sure, but only in installments over the next 10 years and in exchange I need you to provide a sync service for my notes.

It's a good price but still feels wasteful if you also run/pay for nextcloud or similar.

It matters under the UK's equality laws. If something like this affects one class more than another then there's an obligation to learn why that is, as the answer may lead to a court finding the, in this case enforcement process,

Chris Morris made a career, early on, of getting fired for stuff he did on air. Not many people would risk that.

Red Dwarf. Low budget yet still enjoyable today. I recall reading the SFX were done on an Amiga with something called a VideoToaster.

Some remarkable doublethink from the BBC in that article: "The BBC said licence fee avoidance did not bring with it a criminal record. A spokesperson said: “Details of the offence are not held on the Police National Computer – so while

I'm not an expert but I've written SQL on and off for years. LLMs help me when I can describe my intent but can't think how to implement it. I don't expect a perfect solution just a starting point that I can refine.

It can be faster by car than by bus even in high density and high bus ridership London. It is very variable by route and time of day, and I am assuming there is no rail option.

If no driver accepts the job (as there's a good chance of making a loss), does Uber try offering a higher fare?

I believe that was the original point: these are plant-based materials so they absorb water which makes them unsuitable for PCBs

Far cheaper than a human therapist, ignoring that they are entirely different things of course.

The other lesson here is that general audience news sites are pretty bad at technology coverage.

This reads like an attempt to restate the buggy whip idiom. It doesn't work well even though your point has some merit.

I was thinking of students who dropped out. It's a different fraud if the institution is claiming re-enrollments that never happened.

I'm about the same age as the writer and I recall seeing women in heels at Glastonbury over 25 years ago. I'm on the side of sensible shoes on a farm, but it's more atmospheric if people dress up.

I think the goal of DRM was absolute security. It only takes one non casual DRM-breaker to upload a torrent that all the casual users can join. The difference here is the company responding to new jail breaks in real time which is obviously
