I've seen some people floating the idea that this ruling also nullifies that rollback, as the affordable care act does not allow discrimination of provision of care based on sex, and if this ruling is centered around the whether or not the word sex encompasses any characteristic of which sex is a part, then the same logic would apply to the ACA also.
> People know what they’re getting into when they start these jobs.
Fresh graduates absolutely do not know what they are getting into when they start their first job.
"Sorted" is a word used here to mean that a task has been completed.
e.g. "Did you get that thing sorted yet?" "yeah, I sorted it out last week."
It can apply to basically anything.
You might also simply say "Sorted." as you finish doing whatever it is you're doing, to announce that you are finished. Similar to just saying "Done." or "Finished." in this respect, possibly with the added implication that there was a problem that has now been solved.
This looks incredibly useful. Real-time inventory sync is a big headache for some of our customers. (We provide a native mobile sales channel for retailers with only a traditional web presence. Think Tapcart (
https://tapcart.co/), but not just for Shopify). I'd like to know what your plans are for which platforms to support next, and if you've got ideas for opening up an API at some point as well?
define "from scratch".
As the saying goes, "If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe."
Most places that are just doing it for that reason won't be advertising anything other than their own /24 or whatever though. You have to fuck up pretty spectacularly (and have your upstream providers do the same) to be able to accomplish what has happened here.
>Why didn’t they take off then
They did. We already went through this bubble / bust cycle once about 10 years ago, albeit on a much smaller scale. Look up the Championship Gaming Series.
Needing explicit permission / cooperation from the developer of a game to run a tournament is more of a barrier to entry than needing to host a server.
For a mid-senior role that sounds about right.
Grads / juniors would be lucky to get half of that.
Fair play for women is a notoriously anti trans organisation. I wouldn't go looking for trans related statistics there.
Sunderland South is the constituency that usually gets it done first.
They also make sure the roads are clear on the night between the polling stations and the place where the votes get counted.
I have a bottle of this replica whisky. Got it as a gift last year. I'm not enough of an enthusiast to say much more than "yes, this does taste very good" but I do very much enjoy the story around it.
I have both an Amex and a Monzo account, and the Monzo account is far more reliable than the Amex when it comes to instant notification. Yes, both have this feature, but I've found that only Monzo does it 100% reliably.
Is that
not the way it works in the states?
That's how it is in England.
3 points for a speeding offence. 12 points and you lose your license for 6 months. Points take 3 years to disappear from your license. You also get fined up to 75% of your weekly income, based on how much over the limit you were going, and there are some hard limits (100 mph?) which result in an instant loss of license. It seems sensible.
I agree that financial penalty does disproportianately affect the poor, but at least scaling it with income means the rich cannot completely ignore it either, as they could with a static fine.
>fairness, justice, community, family etc.
How are these different issues to the ones that are voted on?
I fail to see any separation. Immigration is directly related to community, regulation to justice etc...
I think you're far too quick to make assumptions about what the baseline of shared values actually is. Yes, it may be easy for us to say that most people think violence, dishonesty or crime are bad things, but absolutely everyone on earth has a different definition for each of those, and differing ideas about to whom or what such definitions should apply.
At a certain point, there are hard lines in the sand, across which it is impossible to find common ground. For me, and many others, this issue is one of those.
>Whether you support Brexit or not says nothing about whether you support immigration rights, free trade and regulation and those political issues say nothing about what your values are as a person.
Yes it does. This "my political views say nothing about me as a person" statement really aggravates me. It doesn't make any sense. Of course your views are part of you as a person.
More specifically to the matter at hand, how does your vote on an issue directly related to immigration, trade, and regulation have nothing to do with those issues?
you can easily get 3-5% on a current account if you shop around a bit, and are willing to put up with switching once a year (a bit much for me, but some folk will go to the effort for the sake of a couple hundred quid).
when I say insurance, I mean, for instance, when I had a halifax current account, they threw in AA coverage, and mobile phone insurance as part of having a current account with them. I'm not aware of any challenger bank that has extras like that.
Yeah, it's definitely achieved "verb" status in my social groups. Transferring between other monzo users is so incredibly quick and easy. Even people who aren't in your contacts list, with the bluetooth transfer feature. It's great.
I keep 3 months pay as emergency cash on hand in that account.
I use santander, which has 1.5% interest (not amazing, but better than nothing) + 3% cashback on phone and internet bills, 2% on utilities and 1% on council tax / mortgages, which adds up to significantly more than the interest over the course of a year.
The big difference here is that student loan repayments are based entirely on your future earnings. It is, for all intents and purposes, a graduate tax. The majority of people will not pay off their loan before it is forgiven, and many will never pay anything at all.
Monzo offer the inter-bank rate when making transactions abroad, calcuated at the time of the transaction. When I use my card abroad, I instantly see the transaction in-app, along with the associated cost in £, with no additional fee applied. On top of that, you can withdraw £200 a month from international ATMs with no extra charge.
There are some credit cards which offer free international transactions, but the rates are almost never as good.
I'm in the same demographic, same kinda of social group, and most of the people I know who use monzo still don't use it as the account where they store the bulk of their cash, it is more for travelling than anything else. The free (up to £200) withdrawals and inter-bank exchange rate make it a no-brainer for that, but there's still nothing about it which would make me switch away from a current account with a decent interest rate and added extras like insurance, or cashback on bills.
My triggers tend to be stress, dehydration and too much screen time.
I find that if I can take some aspirin/paracetamol and get to a dark, quiet place as soon as I start to see an aura, I can usually limit the pain somewhat, but I'll still be unable to actually do anything for the duration.
> How many times are you likely to switch database engines?
Not often, but you may wish to support multiple engines at once, and it makes your code a lot easier to manage if you don't have to have a separate set of queries for each engine.
A software development salary in London will absolutely not support a mortgage on a £1M flat.
It's only disk IO bound if you're accessing the disk. With modern servers packing multiple TB of memory, it is likely you won't be accessing the disk at all.
I suspect this has to do with their battery expertise as much as anything else. If Apple is looking to get into the Electric car game, the McLaren would be an especially good acquisition.
