This, unfortunately, is correct. The birth rate means jack shit. People with the capital to do so will just buy multiple homes. Holiday homes, homes closer to work, rental properties etc. If the crash ever came it would be so bad it would m

I'm not sure I agree with this. Surely the solution is not to bother with the completely pointless createAdmin and createCustomer functions in the first place and to just call createUser directly where it is needed with the correct par

There's a lot of people mentioning the usual of exercise, sleep, journalling, diet, relationships etc and they are absolutely correct. I would like to mention one thing that I seem to becoming more aware of as I get older and that is t

You are attempting to imply that consuming food and consuming Shakespeare are the same which they are not. Consuming fast food likely has a negative physical outcome in most people. Can you prove that consuming Shakespeare has a correspondi

I look at recessions as being analogous with a bodybuilding cut cycle. You go through a bulking cycle to build muscle and to do so you consume a calorie surplus. Because it's difficult to tailor your macros precisely, you most likely p

People say this all the time but not many people are moaning that their power plug hasn’t evolved in over 100 years or that shipping container sizes haven’t changed. The fact is that for certain things such as this, there should be an ISO s

I would challenge the author of this document to try and get this down to 10 pages or preferably less. I’ve had a skim through and I’m not convinced this needs to be a 22 page document. The longer and more involved these planning systems ar

Behind every bullet is a solider taking a decision to pull the trigger. Ultimately, regardless of the orders given by their superior, it is that person who decides whether or not to kill someone. If you want to see this in action, go read u

This is very bad. I feel like the military is meant to strive for the very highest standards possible because they are ultimately responsible for the most ethically challenging job: determining whether or not to kill people. If you're

Would it not be easier to use some method that doesn't cause a mess and to automate an email or text message to your local police department/paramedic etc with details on what you've done and how to locate your body? Sounds p

If this is true, then why are many of Britain's coastal towns such as Blackpool, Grimsby, Great Yarmouth etc also the areas of the country with the poorest health? Because it's bullshit, that's why. Maybe if you can afford to

Disagree with your definition of importance. Go interview 1000 modern English speakers and ask them what the most important book is to them - I doubt if anything by Shakespeare would make it in to the top ten. Go ask 1000 literature profess

Ah fair enough. I think I went into the book knowing that already so I enjoyed it. I think I’d either recently visited Venice or went shortly after reading the book so it resonated with me. I think if I was going into the book expecting a s

I might be wrong but I think I remember reading that the book is meant to be a love letter to the Italian city Venice and that all the “cities” are actually just describing Venice from different perspectives. Edit: Just had a quick look at
