You do not seem to aware of Scottish politics in any way.

Support for the EU is much higher than support for independence (as shown in the last two referendums).

Docker is not a form of virtualization (on linux). It partitions the kernel.

I would reply with a horrified rant about how bad this comparison is... but VMWare is such an ugly hack doing the "world switch" inside the kernel that... yeah, it is just like that. The modern world is candy floss all the way down.

Wash trading in shares is illegal.

But as fair as the concentration of power goes they are identical: completely in the hands of an unelected individual. The last time that monarchies had any influence on international politics (ignoring the current ceremonial bunch) was the eve of WWI. Then the world saw how similar monarchies and dictatorships were - especially in the cases of the Kaiser and the Tsar.

I played it this weekend. Massive inprovement over launch. It is pretty good fun.

Yes it all works fine. Cancel whenever you want, runs to the end of the billing period. I dip and out of it on the PC depending on what I’m playing.

They already have a proud history of schemes like this that stretches back over hundreds of years:

No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame

There is no evidence to suggest that. I consider it more likely that imagination develops as a result of creative play. Forcing somebody to be bored for several hours is just unnecessary.

It makes a difference though. We’re sitting in a 5-hour drive back home after the weekend. My kid is sitting in the back watching Netflix on a iPad connected to personal hotspot on a 4g phone. Huge difference from staring out of the window as a kid myself...

The cost of manufacture is adaptive: the difficulty level will track the level of processing power down as well as up.

If the price drops -> less companies see a return on mining -> less companies mine -> difficulty level drops -> cost goes down.

Oh dear.

So yeah, actually I do have to perform risk assessment every time we buy in a new service or make a change that may have an impact on our legal duties.

But unlike you, I know what I’m talking about and I use words to mean what they mean.

It’s a shame your ego would not let you admit that you made a small mistake to begin with, bet you are a dream to work with.

Sure, I have actually. I suspect that you have never done them *properly*. No estimate is a hard deadline. Trying to muddle the two reveals a lack of clarity and/or knowledge. It is the first place that I would start digging to find out what the real picture is.

Would you like to try an appeal to authority next? Or are you going to proceed directly to a “No real Scotsman” type of argument?

Sometimes it easier to just stop digging and say “yeah, I said the wrong thing. This is what I meant”. But you do you, eh?

So, not actually a hard deadline then?
