They could work longer. In the UK, for example, the retirement age was set to 60 for women and 65 for men, when life expectancy was substantially lower than today. On the current trajectory, a large number of "boomers" at death wi

What would you say Microsoft are? A word processor company? An operating system company? It's conceivable surely to anyone that a company could do more than one thing?

It’s really not too bad - not having to fight for overhead space and thus being able to board last makes it worthwhile even if you don’t have items prohibited in carry-on bags.

You can still do that if you check a bag instead of carrying it on, of course.

Of the two in the US this decade, one did not have a cockpit door as the plane was too small, and the other was by an off-duty pilot sitting in the cockpit…

Until very recently I had a Bang and Olufsen CRT, and it was by far the best picture I’ve ever seen. Unfortunately “small” (32”) yet simultaneously weighed a ton.

This looks like a great library, and I'm happy to see focus on proper native Mac apps over Electron. One odd thing, the library doesn't have a license associated with it (in the repo, at least).

It is worth noting that only one of the “big three” clouds is in Silicon Valley - indeed, much of the original development work on what became AWS was done in South Africa!

Automatic enforcement of dumb low level stuff is supposed to free up police time for the more serious things. Whether that happens or not is a political decision. I remember the time before red light cameras in London, and the time afterwar

While I largely agree, this isn't a question of having broken the law or not. The registration is _literally something issued by the DVLA_, so of course government agencies have access to it. The problem in this specific case is where

The difference is (presumably) that they are the only auto finance company doing this and therefore should have a more rigorous standard applied than the individuals who make up the remaining 3982 cases.

Except, it does. People worried about getting a fine will not chance a light on yellow. This is patently obvious for anyone that has ever driven in London (where I learned to drive). Anyone that doesn't care about the fine (perhaps in

You certainly can expect “some” human to know what “some” code does. Things you cannot expect: - ALL humans to know what SOME code does - SOME humans to know what ALL code does.
