Your phone calls would be recorded. SO what is the difference.

No the traders would have to use approved messing apps. The banks don"t like not knowing as it is easiest to defraud the company you are working for.

True but the rules for bank traders do cover this. The rules cover all traders. In the 90s we had an IT contracter complaining the bank told him not to use a messaging app as the bank could not read it. The issue is the bank is at risk if c

You need street names as I see the name on a map on iPhone plan in my head a route and see the street name so as to know where I turn - or how far you are along a road. GPS is not that accurate.

True but it does have the BigDecimal class which is what you should use for money, unless you are using derivatives pricing when thr person writing the code must understand floating point.

I thought all major shops got differently numbered models from major suppliers. This allows the shop to say it is a unique model only available from them. Well at least in the UK

Communication is important and does require more communication - but more frequently I don"t think so. You don't pop into somon elses space and interrupt them unless you have a reason and don't do that often. IRC or other cha

That looks really bad. Even the old Intal Spininhalers look easier and they made a nice whizzing sound as the impeller span, but they had to be cleaned regularly as the powder stuck to the moving parts. The other think I note was the nasal

Surely a main reason Excel gained market share was that it was graphical i.e. on Windows. Probably gained when OS/2 and Windows 3 came out giving a decent graphical environment. I used Excel on Windows 2 from its release but I would be

SO the tech can and does block adverts for toulet seats if you have just bought one?

Also there are a lot of websites not meeting GDPR rules but major sites do even if it is block all visitors from Europe - cookie consent rules are also broken by many but that is an different law. Usual problem with laws who enforces them.

Historically cold war proxy wars were unlikely to escalate as even when a major power had troops on the ground it was on behalf of another country and also we seem to have had sensible leaders. Ukraine does differ as a major power is involv

But we have had nearly 80 years of peace between major powers and that has not happened since there were major powers. Ok you get many indirect wars e.g. Ukraine, Vietnam, Korea much in Africa but not ones that could escalate to World War l

The consent banners you complain about are not due to GDPR it is a different law plus a compliant website makes it as easy to reject cookies as it does to accept them.

That is already the law - note the cookie consent law is not GDPR. Many websites seem to break this law.

Well .DS_Stores are just used by Finder - but do show the limitations of Unix Filesystems. Where should the data they hold be stored? The macOS API is really Foundation - a layer above POSIX - if you use that then the filesystem is not that

What will improve SO is if you had an AI that could downvote bad answers and questions and especially find duplicates and point the new question to the old question. This would save a lot of experienced users time This would make it easier
