Renault seems to have made a sensibly priced range with some classic styles too. Familiar cars but with EV, rather than early adopter cars like the Nissan Leaf or weird tech bro cars.

I would say in nice round numbers 50 grams prevention for a kilo of cure. That is my only criticism of the metric system, it doesn't often coincide with quantities handy for every day use, so makes poor 'sayings'.

This is a common complaint in the EU, since enforcement is by ones own government, everyone believes that they are the only ones being held to account. It may or may not be true in general, but it sure gives that impression

Some get lost or stray. It is natures back-up plan. Stocking can give it a faster kickstart though

You definitely could chat to your audit partner in the past. Otherwise it is the same old bunch of recent graduates giving out advice that they have zero experience to support

I don't know about the partying, but they seem to work them very hard these days.

The Big Four have become a shadow of their former selves. They have become so risk averse that their advice is already incredibly generic and non-actionable. I think their audit work is in a downwards spiral. Audit has become so competitive

Interestingly concrete yachts are a thing. Ferro-cement is the term, but it is just reinforced concrete. You can buy very large yachts for small amounts of money with yachts made this way in the 70s. Insurance can be tricky for no really g

I'm interested in this when people talk about low pay. In the UK if you are low waged, paid for 40 hours, asked to work another 40 hours for free... your pay test for minimum wage compliance is total pay divided by total hours worked

As that sort of person myself, albeit not in a software company right now, my thought process would be this. 1) I have a new extra cost 2) How does that make me more profit, and improved cashflow I know I'll be bombarded with metrics

They can't sieze consignment stock though?!?

What about potential employees, can they look? The local community that consents to let the company build and operate in their town? How does that help, if they don't follow have to follow GAAP anyway?

This is an interesting anomaly in the US. In the civilised world all corporations have to file public accounts, as the price for their limited liability. The detail and audit requirements depend on the size, turnover, staff numbers etc. T

They have the whole software industry addicted to AI. They will be pushing the price continually up, and like addicts they will find a way to pay

There is no difference. Spain just got the right answer before the US

I had sudden memories of playing Frontier: Elite 2. I wanted to go to Sol, buy luxury goods...and take them to Barnards Star

Would you choose the weapons, armour and tactics as described in the Iliad? Even though it is thought they are inaccurate for the time period that they think the Iliad is set? Not so easy I would say. And the extra you describe, where does

Wspr is very optimised for weak signals, though. You wouldn't actually hear anything but noise.

Baofengs also have terrible receive filtering. It is perfectly possible to hear no stations because you are being overloaded by something on another frequency. I tried my first SOTA activation with a Boafeng. A transmitter on another hill

by jimnotgym 5mo ago
The only hams I ever enjoyed talking to were SOTA chasers when I was the activator. Bit of an all day job, and therefore something I don't really have time to do.

Being told to eat shit has been typical of most of my experience of trying to get normies to understand my mild nuerodiversity. My slightly more serious experience is that in my late 20s I started getting digestive problems and gaining weig

Presumably if you paid them enough money they would give you the books without you having to pay to scrape at all?

I would love it if you could detect AI scraper bots, and feed them AI generated bs instead of the real books...

Well I have some evidence to support your hypothesis. During Covid my kids were at home, eventually with some kind of self learning website from school. I was upstairs working, checking in with progress on the parents app. Finish your daily
