GOTO 10

I actually said communism. Bernie is a communist. Keep up.

Way to go, showing the world you haven't a clue on what terms mean.

Many countries have trialled 4 day weeks and found if anything it increased productivity. Your suggested 4 day 10 hour shifts are common too and have been for years. Most grown up economies allow workers to choose work patterns that work for them as long as it doesn't adversely impact the job. I'm left pretty much to my own devices as to whether I work in the office or at home and what hours. If I need a few hours off for something, I do that then catch up in the evening. Works for everyone.

How on Earth is this marked troll? Are you all so conditioned in the US to working every working hour that any attempt at balancing things out is seen as bad? This post is bang on the money.

42/6 seems a little tight for an HD video call too run smoothly with much else going on.

The downstream is fine, but 6 up leaves a lot of common uses wanting.

I'd be pretty happy with 35/20 (enough for an UHD stream and some overhead down and to do work in a reasonable time up).

But I think 100/20 is pretty reasonable, though I don't think I'd have a problem with 50/20 being the definition.

The old definition of allowing 3 up was pretty bad around here.

I had to go to 200/20 to get over 6 up and it was quite expensive, whole 250/6 was pretty cheap (second cheapest plan with an add on for 250/6, and a very premium plan to get that 20 up).

I'm sure I'm not the only person that found basic and standard packages woefully inadequate for working from home over the last few years.

I highly doubt they pay license fees.

It's more that of they get closed down they'll open a new Amazon store.

The bundler can disappear and pop back up and doesn't really have high effort. It's also their job, not their hobby.

Yeah, it's easy to forget just how freaking EXPENSIVE computer stuff was back then.

My Atari 400 was GBP350 and the 48K upgrade another GBP100 then GBP350 again for the disk drive back when my take home pay was GBP150 a month. I had multiple loans running in parallel to buy all the stuff.

Elite was great but that was hardly unknown back then. The Atari 800 (1979) had display lists (and later Amiga with Copper Lists) that allowed you to change graphics mode or colours on any scan line, hence so many Atari games having scrolling rainbows from top to bottom. You could also define different scrolling regions via display lists so different sections of the screen scrolled in different directions.

Reminds me of similar tricks with Atari basic. A number took I think 2 bytes whereas a variable was 1 so any number appearing more than once got converted leaving reams of lines like Dim n1=1 total = total + n1 It also worked with gosubs so you could have gosub g1000

I think it's more "will there be enough cash next quarter to cover the loans and leave some to re invest/pay shareholders, or do I need to keep it in the bank".

Not exactly cash flow, but I assume next is risk management. Like maybe tell Silicone Valley Bank that having all of your money in long term treasuries is actually extremely risky, because even thought the note is safe over the term, the current value can fluctuate (a lot).

Cash flow predictions are an excellent application for machine learning, though I would think a monoculture of everyone outsourcing it has real risk to the economy (hopefully the risk management AI will warn companies that if everyone makes the same wrong prediction they'll be fucked).

I've never heard of an Amazon aggregator and now I've read up on it, I still don't get the point, let alone why investors would throw money at it.

The gene therapies? Is that the vaccines?

If they didn't work why are there significant differences in the death rate that map with vaccine skepticism (geographically) that start to appear specifically after the availability of the vaccine?

Back in the 80s a UK bank experimented with signature verification by recording the sound of the pen movements on the paper as that was harder to replicate by a fraudster vs just being able to recreate the signature after a bit of practice.

Pretty sure that outside some right wing wingnuts who like waving flags and screaming about patriotism, Brexit was a very clear message to everyone that leaving the EU was an incredibly bad idea. The benefits hugely outweigh the negatives.
