I’ve reacently read the Burnskie book about crypto assets in the hope that I might come away more enlightened about the market and how to assess it. The opposite was the case. After reading the book and looking into it more, it’s very hard

Gare du Nord was in chaos once when we were coming back to London. Some idiot had tried to KNOWINGLY bring a live WWII grenade back as a souvenir.

I can relate to this. I'm a master's swimmer, but I'm only really now picking up pace after having to take a couple of years off to properly build strength in my shoulders to carry on after a rotator cuff injury. Around May 2

They’ve put ads in my fb messenger and damn them to hell for it. I’ve actively stopped using it now.

They are, for now, as most monopoly industries were before their negative effects caught the attention of govts and they suddenly found themselves regulated.

Agree. I've cancelled prime. I'm lucky to live in London, so local UK retailers are actually pretty good in terms of delivery and click and collect options - I tend to find it easier to buy something online on Argos, then just wal

@kypro It's not 'racially preferenced'. The UK is a member of a club of nations with certain rules, which it seems to be ignorant of - such as the ability to restrict free movement within the rules of FM. The way the UK treat

As an immigrant to the UK from not-the-EU, I can tell you that Mrs. May's time at the home office has turned UK immigration policy into a clusterfuck that works against the interests of the country and forces smart people who the UK di

That was in my first post: The govt. should pay, or at least subsidise, as it's a national infrastructure investment. The UK is one of the world's leading tech nations, mostly due to London and the research universities, but the b

You're one of the lucky ones. I don't consider the 'fibre' crap they offer, FTTN then vdsl, to be 'fibre', so the comparison you make is misleading. If the UK gov had got 95% FTTH they might have something to b

Nope, they copped out and kept the two together but with separate boards.

The UK is the most frustrating place to live sometimes. The English speaking world has a shining example of how to not fuck this up in NZ, yet they keep doing the opposite. Against all sorts of lobbying, the NZ govt. forcibly separated our

What do you expect? Big tech has gone to war with the media and taken the majority of their ad revenue, inserting themselves into the middle of the main relationship between them and their audience and advertisers. Only problem is tech didn

My iPhone 6 was snappy, then ios 11 came along and now it's not. Also, it's not the battery - I smashed the screen and they replaced the phone in April. It's just classic Apple: programming for the latest CPUs and damn the re

I should've been more explicit, I meant against bringing it in-house. My partner is an experienced commercial real estate lawyer so, really, I'm just reflecting her view - she's worked on both sides, in-house and private prac

They acknowledge all of the methodological stuff towards the end. The NYT itself didn't conduct the research and they compared to the results of similar surveys and it was consistent. How desperate are some people to minimise this stuf

Yep, the thing big clients are buying from big law firms is their liability insurance, not their super-unique law expertise.

Yep, it's great, but they just 'invented' sports clubs. I've swum with a club my whole life, it's not 'group fitness' it's just training for a sport.

I think part of your argument is true: Europe benefits from being in the American sphere of defence, but, I also think this is a red herring as the USA is more than rich enough to have both a strong military and look after its population.

Nope, think we agree with each other :) Just pointing out why the EU would want to be able to deal with Uber as Transport.

by te_chris 9y ago
Which is another reason why the EU would want to class uber as transport. In switching from PT to Uber you create congestion, which cities will want to regulate.

Not OP, but there's two concepts you're confusing: Residency and Tax Residency. Tax residency, for mortals, is normally where you live and work, so for you, even with the Canadian company, it'll probably be the US.
