It is UK and not the US.
In most of Europe, the fee for the lawyer is based on the "price of the case", which is in this case 7000pounds. A fee of 400 sounds completely reasonable.

Why do you say union, when the correct term is worker?
The union was not willing to accept wage cuts
The workers vote what the union has to do, and then the union is their proxy towards the company.
that could have saved their jobs
What is the point of having a job, when you can not live from the wage? Oh
You some pretty stupid ideas about "what the job of a union" is.
Fleet managed? Company has an old Exchange Server? They use windows at a different workplace?
However, you are right. A sane person would use Apples Mail client.
Amusing reasoning.
I hope you never help someone to commit a fraud/crime.
No, I did not kill him! I only drove the killer to the spot of the crime!
No, I did not kill him! I only buried the corpse! He was dead already! I swear!
Note, idiot: if you had some morals you would know what is right and what is wrong. For idiots like you the rest of mankind made laws. If you fail to read them when in doubt about what is right and what is wrong: your problem.
That makes the narrative that data-centers are 'water hungry' very effective at causing unrest.
Which is probably why that narrative gets pushed so hard. You CAN build a datacentre with evaporative cooling and that will use a lot of water. You can also build one with a closed loop and radiators that doesn't use any water except for the original fill. You can even build one that's air cooled and doesn't use any water at all.
All of those options also apply to anything else that needs to be cooled, which is pretty much everything.
Scanning for Starbucks cups, flagging possible continuity errors, pose estimation and tracking for motion capture, inserting CGI, rendering, there are all sorts of boring tasks that could be automated or improved if already automated.
Tests are not objective.
People for passing tests excel on them, and fail in the job.
Normal people are bad in tests, and excel in the job.
Most people with an A grade, are good in making A grades, and that is it. Unfortunately plenty of school systems are set up to produce A graders, who know nothing.
I guess it was even more simple and primitive: the same drive was used by several cheaters, handed to them by the guy providing the data. And the professor simply realized: he had seen this and that before or the files were even named Student_surname_student_given_name.pdf or student_id.pdf, and there were several of them.
How can you tell how many red balls there are in the bin if you don't properly sample its contents?
Because I told you:
"a bin full of blue balls with one red ball in it"
If we dropped 8% of a system's capabilities each revision cycle, pretty soon there wouldn't be much left.
The argument that changes to support the majority use case compromise important minority ones is a reasonable one. You didn't make that argument. In what I presume was your effort to be pithy your brain cast "most" to "all" and you provided a single counterexample.
Solid state batteries are not 3D printed.
They are 2D pained.
A few layers of magical "chemicals" painted on top of each other.
Has absolutely nothing to do with your 3D printer, regardless if it spits out plastic or a metal alloy.
That's why systemd has been systematically making interoperability with grub and encryption more difficult, in no small part.
Oh cool so they fixed all the problems!
Simplification?
There was no simplification. It was all markedly more complicated and interdependent. That was literally the primary selling point of systemd, aside from "faster boot times".
What are the discreet benefits to the "1000s of containers at scale" scenario you mention which are satisfied with systemd which could not be or were not satisfied with init?
There was not a lack of uniformity before. In fact, it was more consistent and uniform before systemd at a system level.
The only benefit systemd provides is integration with eg. pulse audio - another one of this shmuck's horrible projects - and desktop integration. While that is potentially useful in and of itself, it didn't need to be done in such a massive, integrated, monolithic Microsoft-like fashion.
