The middle class are skilled-professionals, artists, and business owners. It is not a matter of salary, but of portability. If you can pick and choose among clients you are middle class, if your skill binds you to an employer you are working class. Much of what we called middle class jobs are not, even if they paid well.

Nobody likes their boss. We work for the paycheck, because we have families to support... or sometimes just a habit to feed.

It's a free country. You don't have to work if you don't want to.

I know who Nancy Grace is, but what is a Roman telescope?

Free press is a binary choice: either you have it, or you don't. If you want a free press, you have to leave it up to the individual to decide whom they are going to believe. Not every population is capable of that, and maybe UK's is not, in which case Parliament needs to be dissolved and the king should have the sole power to appoint the government.

If you want to know what restriction to trusted sources looks like, look no further than Russia.

Because of Vendor Lock in, and: they are decades ahead in implementing high performance DBs on "big iron".

A hobby project SQL database is not 100 billion transactions a day DB, as much as you wish it would be.

Behind your back, the time he spent on the open ticket was billed to your company.

No way the replace a cash cow like that.

No idea about your country.
But in any western European democracy: a union is like a party.
It is bound to the votes of the members.

Or why the fark would we have unions, and union laws and all those complicated union stuff: if the leaders could rule like kings?

And I am pretty sure: your country is the same, you simply:
- hate unions
- and are to uneducated to know how they work

Yes, and on top of that: do not execute anything that comes from external sources. Like on a Mac.

You do not know what the unions advised them.

You simply hate unions and have no clue how unions work in general, and unfortunately more painful: in your country.

So nobody local "won". Real economics work like that.
In your farked up country. There should not be any "real economics" around jobs. It is a basic human right to have a job that pays you a living.

Everyone using "baseload" (here on /.) is using it wrong.

No point in reading your link, as the link is most likely correct, and YOU or the other wrong people have English language comprehension problems.

Hint a power plant with "capacity factor 40%" can be a base load plant, and a plant with 95% CF can be a load following plant - oops.

Oh, just to confirm, your link is correct: The base load[2] (also baseload) is the minimum level of demand on an electrical grid over a span of time, for example, one week.

You see ... and now explain me your understanding why a country that has 70% nukes suddenly is better off in providing baseload versus a country that only has 40% nukes :P

Good luck.

Perhaps you should look up what "WASTE" is.

There is no reactor in the world that can "burn" fission products, aka "WASTE".

Stupid brainwashed Americans.

They can also run on thorium.
Unlikely. Thorium has to be bread into Uranium before fission. I do not think a CANDU reactor can do that (without upgrade or modification).

I've had semi-decent luck, but it seems like no matter how perfectly tuned it is, all it takes is one background process jumping up to cause glitching audio, which is completely unacceptable when you're trying a tricky take. It's been about three or four years since my last attempt, so I should probably try again, but I hate to waste the recording time on setup time.

And it still does not explode, catch fire when exposed to oxygen ... because: it is a salt, and not the pure element. Most "liquid salt" things: are NaCl :P
