I normally ask what opportunities for growth exist, eg training/certs/online courses etc, and what they like about the company, can normally tell if they like the job/you by how enthusiastic they answer or whether it comes ac

You'd think that, but some legacy systems might not have it, I don't want to name and shame, but a lot of our code is on an IBM Series i (used to be called as400?) and the source control for it is basically manually adding a comme

2/3 majority wouldn't have made a difference, the referendum wasn't on leaving, it was on staying, the option supporting the motion on the ballot got less than half the votes so it was agreed by parliament we should leave, wh
