Vic may be singing in Federation Standard (aka English)

Wait a second.... You're telling me that in the future there's peace on Earth and we don't need for money or food or anything and the standard language is (effectively) English? And the French are ok with that? GTFO. 😂

Interesting....... but AsyncTask or Rx if you had to?

Is it a shit hole because there's nothing to do and no jobs? Well that's fair.

But if we're going to build more houses and towns then we need to get that part right as well. Drawing all the wealth and life of the country into the South isn't great in the long term.

Oh cool that's good to know.

This is what I've heard as well and I think it's good advice. Putting it into practice is hard though. Do you just say "I prefer not to disclose that at this stage"? Or something else?

One of the arguments for Snaps used to be that they are available on the sever as well. So one format supports server and desktop apps. Is that true for Flat packs? I honestly don't know.

They all do that. They're actually trained in how to do that. It's some sick Prisoner's Dilemma thing. They make you give an estimate first and then low ball from there. They don't tell you a salary range deliberately because they know people will put themselves at the top of the range.

I've had it before where I've replied to them saying "What's the salary range" and they've said "we don't disclose that at this stage in the interview what's your salary right now?". The fuck. So they expect me to tell them everything and tell me nothing in return? End the interview right there.

What's happening with all the money Biden has given Intel? That just disappeared?

This was the guy who, when told he had cancer, decided to self treat himself with smelling salts or some shit like that. Then when it didn't work said, "Halp I need medicine".

Do this but.... Build a new fucking city you bastards! Including all the infrastructure and housing and high street and transport.

There was an interesting comment in the previous post about this. Whilst conspiracy nonsense is often quite common here on Lemmy I do feel in this case it's pretty accurate of what's going on.

Lammy and his French counterpart were recently in Israel having high level meetings with the Israeli government. No doubt the topic of on going support from the UK & France came up and no doubt Lammy would have mentioned that it doesn't look good politically in the UK to still have these licenses for arms to kill Palestinians. The US is being particularly quiet on this one given the election but a Trump team member recently said something to the effect of "The UK can get fucked if it stops selling arms to Israel... I tell you hwat".

So, to me, this really does feel like the UK trying to balance politics at home and abroad. Even the way Lammy sheepishly apologised for suspending a tiny fraction of arms sales to Israel. Just enough to placate the voters at home whilst trying not to damage inward investment from countries that fully support Israel's campaign (i.e. the US and Israel itself).

Obviously welcomed news but the interesting point that commentators are calling out is this:

However, the total capacity of offshore wind projects secured may not yet be enough to meet the UK’s stretching target of decarbonising electricity supplies by 2030.

Industry had previously argued that this round, and the next one, would need to deliver about 10GW of offshore wind capacity each to keep the sector on track with government targets.

Today's news shows confidence in the sector and in government stability after the lacklustre auction of last year under the previous administration.

Good starting point but we need more. Well done Ed.
