Despite the downvotes the only incorrect statement here is that Boris has a lordship. Go export the ONS data yourself and analyse it unless your too lazy to see what I mean

Yes. This was never pure ONS data. It was always processed/massaged/tampered with. Although horrifyingly it did allow you to gauge the Westminster mindset and understand what Draconian measures they were planning to introduce sigh

But frankly we're very similar in this regard, and given we might get dropped from H24 we're not in a good position tech or science wise heading into a recovery... We'll no doubt award yet more govt projects to the tech oliga

The transmissible factor being genetically favoured is a no brained, but frankly given 99.9% of cases did not result in death the morbidity of covid is arguably already very low, why should it favour a decrease over developing new symptoms

Frankly about time given that Omicron peaks are preceding peak number of booster shots. The magical broken product we can't sue over strikes again. It's still not understood what pressures led to Omicron favouring lower lethality

Yes, that's the embarrassment. In the UK at least these things are sorted out at a national level schools share the network from councils which shares it on a national backbone. Frankly given that is the state of things JISC really sho

Trust me no, one is something that can be used in production by a small team of developers, the other is kubernetes and needs to be taken out back and shot. Mainly for the huge gulf of support that exists between a mock-VM and Amazon suppor

Given our (UK) present govts history and tragging on anti BLM/eco pretesting things onto a needed bill in the commons I'm not surprised they're taking this route. It might even appear on the BBC before the year is out of it w
