Internal wall insulation is relatively straightforward and retrofitting in older housing with single-skin brick walls similarly so.

For example:

https://www.smartstoneenergy.c...

Do the calcs, do not overloook your air movement and general ventilation requirements, and favour natural materials. Gypsum-based plasters are not typically breathable so may need to be removed from internal walls.

External insulation may be better, less disruptive to install but requires an immediate investment rather than a room-at-a-time for internal insulation. YMMV.

Agreed - using a search engine improves the signal to noise ratio for targetted consumption (i.e. reading about a specific thing).

Reddit, on its own, tends towards noise in some subs of interest to me (accepting this is a self-selected sample). This untargeted consumption (i.e. scrolling through a sub) is often not what is once was.

Reddit was designed for consumption related to ones interests - i.e. untargeted consumption within your choice of subs.

Unfortunately, unless you want cat videos and other ephemera, Reddit is not what it once was.

Maybe this is because many of the moderators left or, essentially, internet communities tend towards entropy.

It's not quite as simple as that - take a look at the oligarchs who use the judicial system to conduct lawfare in London.

Or Wipro where non-Indian workers are replaced by lower cost and lower competence personnel typically within a year of a contract win.

Please explain the logical conclusion of your thesis which seems to be:

1. That corporations should launch large constellations of satellites until the market is saturated.

2. That regulation for the public good inherently Communist.

The funding cuts disproportionately target Arts and Humanities.

Do you think this is correct?

Jira is a piece of software. Some people live with it, some people like it and some people do not.

I live with it but this does not make me an apologist.

I have never met a Scrum Master or Product Manager that uses every Jira feature. That would be strange.

For Kanban and it's integration with Confluence, GitHub and PagerDuty, Jira is OK. It may not be OK for you.

Asda are migrating to a new ERP system and leaving the Walmart ERP system behind.

Consequently, maybe Asda is big enough to survive this.

You are broadly correct.

1. Walmart sells Asda to an "interesting" pair
2. Asda needs to migrate from Walmart ERP to their new ERP
3. Blah, blah SAP HANA
4. ERP migration is delayed
5. Enter Tata Consultancy Services (so awful that even Wipro people laugh at 'em)
6. TUPE applies, but who wants to work for TCS?!

Broadly agreed, but t'Internet is a woeful mess of script upon script upon script. I use NoScript, Ghostery, AdBlock Plus and HTTPS Everywhere...but sometimes find well-known sites that still b0rk until I reconfigure an addon.

+1 Internet :-)

Get a Nexus. However, nothing is secure once someone has their hands on it (insert obligatory XKCD encryption link.) At least F-Secure Mobile Security reduces the attack surface before it's stolen and allows you to remote-wipe after it has been stolen. I don't work for F-Secure BTW!

For as long as idiots run commercial websites without backups, one can only hope they're found out...exploited and then relegated to an evolutionary dead-end. It's not as if offsite backups are particularly hard to figure out.
