Britain is not apart from Europe, the continent. It has, and always will be, deeply connected. Leaving the EU didn't mean it got to sail away to a new place, it just meant no longer having a powerful seat at the table. Effectively, Bri

They did in the past but they are designed now to disintegrate without taking the rest of the plane with them. Not that something unusual couldn't happen, but the engines are tested on this very thoroughly, based on previous accidents.

The Measure of a Man is one of those episodes that drives me nuts. I re watched that season recently. The debate about artificial life is an important one but the framing is terrible: Data already being so far beyond the argument. Sure, som

It's a cool story and all but did he really need to stop her plane leaving on time and rush over the airport to meet up with her? I mean, they'd met, she was on his frequent flyers account, probably could have just send an email &

I don't know if there's a way to ask with sensitivity, but I'm very interested to know why you stayed with her for 18 months after she threatened to kill you? Sorry about the job, happens to the best of us. I think when it&#x

There are different levels of debugger. I use language ones all the time. But this article is talking process debugging. If you dev native compiled apps then that's probably second nature. But if you do dev on a scripted or runtime lan

I don't think LLMs have anything to do with it. I've rarely seen devs reach for a debugger until they really really need to. In web dev it can be pretty hard, you need a reproducible bug or production server access. I can probably

The problem with seeing it as a test of response is that the test changes future responses. Where previously it might have been possible to do a surprise attack on cables, govts will now (hopefully) be looking at ships maneuvering near by w

I agree, it was OK. I was hoping, based on the reviews and hype, that the books would be much more witty. They turned out to be pretty humourless.

I quite liked the focus on minutiae while the bigger events were happening in the background. The third book even discussed it - we live or die today after this battle, but if we live then we still need to do the staff rota. It gave a littl

Yes and I feel like without albums you don't get those gems that are under appreciated at the time but go on to outshine the better selling singles.

I want new music. I look for new music and recommendations all the time. There's plenty of new great music, single songs. Finding a whole album that is coherent and amazing though, that's unusual. That requires a group of people w

You sound pretty negative about it. I know plenty of people who work from home and deal with their kids and enjoy doing so. And some who just seem to dislike their kids regardless of the work situation. So when folks say they work at home t

I've used the same, and it seems just as, if not more, effective than the roundup available from the garden centre. The only problem is that vinegar destroys spray machines. Even though I rinse through after every use.

The town I live in has 6000 people and there's a play or live music event in the town hall every couple of weeks, maybe more often in summer. I don't go to many, one or two a year, but presumably enough people turn out.

They may. One of the promises of the compiler though is that you don't need to change how you write your code. It will determine how to run.

There were some new ideas a few (10+) years ago around how to visualize and navigate code, basically letting you edit through the program flow rather than by file. I was really keen on the idea but they only worked for Java, if I recall cor

I don't really want a robot wandering around doing laundry. I think what most people want is a box you dump clothes in and they come out folded, an extra machine next to the dryer. That would be a genuine time saver. I hate scaling Mou
