Interesting... I got a result of 44Mb/s down, which is 8 more than I pay for and 13 more than any other speed test shows (i.e. speedtest.net, fast.com, BT Wholesale speed check).

Aside from the general tone-deafness of this move, shouldn't the management at the warehouses be the ones wearing the thank you t-shirts? To you know, thank the workers... I'm sure those workers would probably prefer and deserve a

I just can't believe they missed the obvious 'iShield' (ie eye shield) name... or maybe that didn't get past the PR department.

I agree that personal responsibility is important but I don't think we can assume that someone who has been physically or emotionally abused is necessarily going to be making rational decisions. Even if they are, they may fear repercus

I got angeber = "show off" and gesellschaft = "society", which I think makes sense in the context of hnarn's comment. I'm not German though so not 100% sure.

Might be a British/American difference but I found all of these incredibly patronising and insincere. You need empathy and sincerity to be good at customer service. At the very least just think of the reply you'd expect if you had

I spent a few years in Singapore in the 90s aged 5-8. We were taught to cross the road with a hand in the air. I think this is still the case for children in SG today. It wouldn't help so much in a driveway situation but at pedestrian

It would definitely be interesting to know if the Tesla 'saw' the black car at any point (and what it was identified as), or if it just looked like another piece of tarmac and kerb. I'm still pretty skeptical we'll ever

Great news for the bees! In related news, I was just reading about a number of councils in the UK leaving roadside verges to flower, saving them money and encouraging wildlife to flourish. Would be great to see more of this in towns and cit

It's 49% calories from fat, that's pretty high. A healthy diet is <20% calories from fat. Even that is much more fat than we need.

Chicken and egg yes, but he had the recent historical data and a bunch of paid-up users. I'm just amazed this app was even necessary in a first-world transport system. For all their faults, the UK rail network is pretty good at providi

Good to hear, I wasn't really trying to accuse, just frustrated at how downplayed this is for ordinary people - your customers' customers. Using language like affected sites when really you mean sites that dumped data about some

Would be interesting to see some opinions from the more enterprise-IT oriented folk here, an area where implementation failures are widely reported, and costly to the organisations involved. Do you agree that blaming management or a failure
