Not in the UK. The creation of pseudoimages, including in some cases, cartoons, has been held to violate the same law. Concur on the correlation vs causation stuff though. But the creation of the material creates the demand, which leads t

That's my point really; women are still expected to bear the brunt of child rearing, so pay the financial penalty. Cf Norwegian policies and smaller gender pay gap.

Mildly ridiculous to draw the line at35 though, which will be around the time a lot of high performing women will have kids.

You might like www.kickdex.com as well... Rather cooler than what I'm doing.

Yeah, absolutely tough to get into. I'm using some free resources right now (football-data.co.uk in particular), but would like to pull more information - the Betfair API in particular is a mess, and Opta are ludicrously expensive - c

Really like that, cool idea. Come launch it in London? We paid £135 (EACH) for that service the last time I rented a flat here.

I'm building http://test.gmbl.io as a side project - it'll be a nice stats site, I mainly built it for my own use and then decided to make it accessible on the web, rather than just replacing my spreadsheets. Might m

Depends on the T&C of the platform. I worked at a platform, and our legals were very clear (and very cleverly constructed) to create a legal dependency from donor to project owner. We were just the marketplace, all liability for carryi

There's a fairly thin line between burn out and depression. It depends, as ever. If you can find the motivation to do other stuff, not related to work, and don't felt generally "sad", it's more likely to be burnou

That's a great comment, except for the last bit. The evidence does not support that welfare grows the welfare population. Concur on the other issues, though. London, where we live, is similar.

They don't. But they should. And that's part of the problem.

You mean the 12m votes he got in the election that was deemed to be unfair by international observers? I'm not surprised people have no faith that the recall process will work. http://helsinki.org.ua/index.php?r=3.4.2

What an absolute crock. Congratulations on some fairly startling ignorance from your privileged world position.

My bad, I was skim reading in between library sessions, ironically. Could have done with some sort of automated check there on my post, if only someone had suggested something like that... rolls eyes

No, but there was a prolonged dirty war by the security services against the republicans, including collusion with murderers and terrorists on the 'loyalist' side.

I concur. RIPA was not about terror, especially when it was passed. It's a generally applicable law that's been mis-used in the name of 'security' and 'safety', in the same way that stop and search from PAC

I think that's built on a massive assumption about the nature of academic papers tbh. I'm a political scientist doing theoretical work on assemblages of governance and policy - part of my research is trying to come up with an exp
