My rubric for picking the quickest queue is the one with the lowest total age. A queue of pensioners will take longer to pack bags, find the right payment card, redeem vouchers and chat with the cashier.

Buying a handful of electric buses as the start of a migration away from diesel is a lot cheaper to get started, and a lot less commitment than installing all the infrastructure before you can run a single tram.

I suspect that is probably a good idea. When my daughters were babies the advice in the UK was to avoid nut products, which we did, it seems to have changed more recently. I also wonder if the fact that my wife has a mild nut allergy and th

This sounds very similar to a treatment that my daughter is due to start next year at a Cambridge allergy clinic in the UK. She'll have to take the peanut based medication every day. She will have the initial dose in a hospital in case

It is a feature, in the same way that all my subscriptions failing when my bank issues a new card would be a bug. Perhaps if the Google rephrased their email to mention that this is to avoid interruption to your service it would seem less c

Shameless plug here, my side project https://www.mikesremotelist.com finds about 10-20 newly listed remote positions a day, they are not all US based, but the majority are.

This is great, I've been thinking about doing something similar but not been able to make the time so it is good to see someone else doing it. There is quite a lot of information out there about tackling the logistical challenges of o

The point I rarely see discussed in these ongoing debates about the best way to pay for healthcare is the benefit of knowing what you have to pay. As I understand it in the US even with health insurance there is likely to be an additional

For me the video part of the process involved recording a video about 6 minutes long where I had to answer 5 questions to camera and send that video in, there wasn't a video conference part (at least not for me). After that was a tele

This is a great list, thanks. I also made a site for this, but rather than aggregating the various job boards I'm trying to track down the companies themselves that hire remotely and aggregate the postings on their own sites: https:&#

Excellent advice. This advice applies to managers hiring new positions as well, make your new hires do this! The position in my career where I had the most success started with my manager on my first day pretty much setting this exact exerc
