Sure, this is the reason why you can't get an answer but it's not a justification . There are 2 parts to it. The first, which is reasonable, is that a lot of treatments are bespoke. Fine. That's a justification for their b

Could you expand? The UK is in the Commonwealth and has the same stricture. None of the extradition charges carry the death penalty. So how is this relevant?

Please don't. Assange jumped bail after a multi stage judicial process on charges of rape and sexual molestation. Ms Frank was hiding to avoid genocidal extermination by an occupying force during war. They're not equivalent.

I wouldn't imagine that he'll be offered a choice. He'll be shipped back to Aus. I can't see any reasonable defence against the deportation that would stand a chance in a UK court.

In my experience it's a useful pre-step to an actual DR simulation to shake out the low hanging fruit. But, as you almost always find issues that you weren't aware of when you do the actual simulation, it's not hugely useful

She's sufficiently smart to know that a wealth tax won't have the impact you describe. In the same way that X% corporation taxes don't pull in anything like the revenue that you'd naively expect. Your argument is, essent

There are some corkers in there. For example, if you disturb someone in a library (Section 41) or drive quickly past a funeral procession (Section 42) you're going down for upto a month (Section 40)! Amazing.

> If an American journalist in UK is publishing Chinese military secrets, he will not be extradited to China. That's absolutely correct as the UK doesn't have an extradition treaty with China.

The author's claims are fairly loosely worded so it's hard to make much of a determination until the relevant code ships in some form. For example, the documentation claims both no memory leaks and C/C++ translation. It'

The vanilla European swaptions market has always quoted wrt the Black model. If you strip out the hyperbole, I think this article is suggesting that they're looking for a cheap and cheerful model that accepts negative forwards. It&#x27

As an educated guess (I don't work, and have never worked, for Lloyds)... Funding initiatives to move from paper to online are likely to be given priority based on metrics. These will be things like league tables, customer satisfaction

Again, that would mean that he deliberately, explicitly and unnecessarily lied to Congress. That would pretty much require him to be an idiot. He is many things but that's not one of them. I'm not suggesting that no-one can read

For example, he said at one point: > No, we don’t see any of the content in WhatsApp, it’s fully encrypted It's clear he's speaking about his company. Given Snowden, it would be monumentally stupid to make such a bare faced lie

It is highly unlikely that Facebook can read WhatsApp messages. The reason I say that is that Zuckerberg said the couldn't, repeatedly and explicitly, to Congress. If there was any chance that they could, he would have either not said

You may be underestimating the thought processes of conspiracy theorists. Google have admitted to spending multiple millions over a number of years on a cold fusion team yet the team are still only publishing negative results? No one does t

I think it's very good of the management at Twitter that they have a policy of not censoring democratic leaders. I'm hopeful that there won't ever be a tipping point on the basis that it's probably a financially good dec

In Europe, we don't really have the concept of at-will employment so an employer can't legally terminate your employment without a good reason. And resigning isn't usually classed as a good reason. I'm not sure about Spa

This isn’t trying to decide the cost of labour. It’s trying to put an approximate low band on the cost of living. And the market does decide on the cost of living. This is attempting to quantify that decision into a practical metric. Not su

Utterly outrageous that Mr Loomis is publishing this on a blog. A blog! Think of all those print workers (unionised print workers I may add) who are out of work because he didn't publish this as a pamphlet. Or not. Sure not all technol

And backdated the article about the loan to the 12th March. Very cunning. Either that or someone has posted a month old article that happens to, topically, mention Ecuador.

He hasn't been arrested for seeking asylum. He's been arrested for jumping bail. He was on bail facing extradition for rape and sexual molestation charges. He sought asylum the moment he knew he would have to face those charges. S
