while debt might be well marketed as acceptable, I worry that you have allowed yourself to consider it not real: if someone is in debt to the bank for the majority of their homes value of 300k while earning 50k PA and then someone else pays 10k rent PA but earns 40k PA then the person on 40k is still wealthier
Not quite - because the person with the 300k house still owns the house. They have a 300k asset and <300k in debt. (assuming house value didn't crash after they bought it.
Pixel with GrapheneOS is still great. And it may take 1-2 years before GrapheneOS gets on this new device.
Now if you just bought a Pixel, it will be supported for 8 years, so by this time hopefully GrapheneOS will be available on many different devices :-).
Not getting the vaccine is statisically correlated with distrust in traditional medicine, and suceptibility to giving undue attention and credit to unfounded and unsound practices.
You're in for a treat. The quote, in case you haven't looked it up yet, is "Show me your flowcharts and conceal your tables, and I shall continue to be mystified. Show me your tables, and I won’t usually need your flowcharts; they’ll be obvious." The canonical work is The Mythical Man-Month: Essays on Software Engineering
this is widely known (been discussed on here many times) that the employee handbook was marketing apparatus and doesnt reflect how the business actually works day to day, and never did
Really? It aligns with what I've been watching employees say in various interviews, such as the recent half life anniversary series of interviews. Would love to read more if you could point me in the right direction.
I think you misunderstood his post. It's generally un-British to suggest the UK is better in any regard whatsoever. I've no doubt he thinks the UK is just as bad if not worse but in different ways.
How do you decide which were the 2% that tipped the scale? Could have been the 18-22 years old too, no? Could have been any cohort, it’s a mathematical fallacy to pretend otherwise I feel.
Well, yes. But then again the 'Take Back Control' campaign had those UKIP buses saying "We send the EU £350 million a week, let's fund our NHS instead". An average person is a bit too removed from the GDP/investments conversations anyway.
And their representatives didn't want to leave so decided to drag their feez and do a shit job of it anyway.
I didn't vote either way but I expect those paid to represent us to actually do it.
Some did. Economic Euroscepticism is far older than the EU. The idea that the UK can return to the productivity of the Victorian industrial era, with WW2 bravado.
Of course it's tosh, and it unravels as soon as the first horse spooks, but in the run up to the referendum people were making all sorts of stupid claims about what we'd be able to have. Remember Soft Brexit? The idea that the EU would give us favourable terms when we were in no position to negotiate? Absolute madness.
