Everything that happened since Brexit is a disaster and it’s mainly the fault of conservative party and their voters (also labor picking comrade Corbyn to be its leader meaning there weren’t really any reasonable alternatives..). Combine th

I bet the person complaining about the price of burgers was in London or some other major city which has them though. And nicer burgers won’t be much cheaper outside of London (they simply might not exist in some places though)

Pre 2010 (well pre 2008 to be fair) UK had a higher or similar per capita GDP as the US, now it’s not even close. If the current trend continues it will be almost double in a few years.. Other European countries have been doing a bit better

Because it’s a relatively insignificant market? However it’s pretty remarkable that Apple only makes a few billion less than Visa from its AppStore despite of the processed amount being 100x+ lower. I guess the problem with the 30% is that

But they do have a license in Lithuania which means all the deposits are covered by their insurance. I agree about the IPO part but I really find it hard to imagine an IPO would make any sense for them at this point. I don’t think there is

I don’t think it is? I mean I obviously think that the executive’s message is deranged but I can’t think of any other scenario why would he write something like that. Unless he’s talking about waiting at the customer’s house …

So you still need to write a query and then ask it to remove unnecessary text from the response it provided?

True. But since he said that he’ll be waiting at his own home that probably means that the unhappy customer was threatening to visit him which is also a bit scary…

Nobody above was implying that race was a scientific concept (at least not in the way it is defined in the US). And most other countries generally only include ethnicity rather than race in their censuses. Which is even worse in that regard

Having to actually pay a subscription is actually much friendlier to players who want to get into the game a couple of years after it was first released. Of course the DLC model is much more profitable overall

So saving humans lives is the most important thing as long we don’t have to resort to using racial slurs to achieve that. Really? That’s the more socially acceptable answers?

It works for enterprise software? why so few companies do it then? also even if we focus on the consumer market there are very successful companies which don’t spend any money on traditional marketing and don’t do ads at all.
