Do you think this may be a bit of Baader-Meinhof going on?

Interesting question, in that kilogram & second are only really handy ways for humans to be able to compare things to other things reliably. Using constants is presumably a more reliable way for the higher level comparisons to be reprod

Oyster allows them see entry and exit, but is doesn't show what route the customer took, which lines did they take if a change was required. It also allows TFL to see where people travelled within the station concourse, how long they t

I've always wondered what the deliverability of mail is that gets sent out from homespun servers with setups like this? I've always assumed it would mostly all end up in spam folders but genuinely curious if anyone has any experie

I just finished listening to "am I being too subtle" by and read by Sam Zell. Initially I was slightly put off by the authors raspy Chicago tones but by the end it really felt like the author had been telling his stories to you pe

a logical conclusion could be drawn that there either Visa/Mastercard should start an ad network, or Google gets in the credit card game (As android pay becomes more widely accepted, this may be an irrelevant step for them)

Whilst I appreciate the tongue in cheek nature of this post, if merely having a degree was the answer, these types of application would not exist.

The sensors are quite pricey to get, each lasting roughly 2 weeks. Unfortunately the sensors aren't available on prescription yet. Let's hope this changes.

Interesting that they'd tie so much cash up in the stock and storage. I expect chateaus were falling over themselves to offer wines to a buyer like this. Immediate cash and a natural scarcity created to the rest of the market.
