I think this observation is true. I'm not nearly as high as you, more close to top 15% but only mid-20s still. But this is something I see with a lot of people my age too that I categorically know are not earning nearly as much as me. They'll have < 3yo BMWs, Mercedes, Audis etc. and you just know most of these are all on PCP finance probably costing upwards of £400pm

You quite often read statistics about how so few people have more than like £3k in savings and, to me, I can never understand how. But when you start to look around you at how many people are living this "buy now, pay later" lifestyle you start to realise that, actually, for many this is just the norm.

My brother's gf is the personification of this. She dropped out of A levels straight away, got accepted onto a nail salon apprenticeship which turned out just to be a way for the owner to get cheap labour, as is common with many of these I understand. So now she just works 3 days a week for a few hours at a time doing nails. But she always has the latest iPhone, always buying shed loads of clothes and other consumerist crap. No idea how she funds it, my parents think my brother's being taken for a ride

Also interested to see this

I'm being careful not to explicitly out myself to maintain some level of anonymity here :D but safety-critical, that should help narrow it down! There isn't a whole lot of tech stuff happening in Bath so I'll try and remember to keep an eye out to see if you go through with that!

As a fellow Bath resident I had to see if I recognised the name (it's a small place) and turns out we have worked at the same place in Bath (although many years apart!) Bathcamp caught my eye, may look into attending when it next comes round :)

some unsolicited feedback, use line breaks

fwiw I wasn't able to drop down the sections on your CV site. I have strict web filtering at work though so may be a problem on my end

Anyone interested in other languages that implement this should take a look at the SPARK subset of Ada. Pre and postconditions work in the same way and enforce the same behaviour described here (or at least that's what I understand it to do from a quick skim through)

In the UK it's very common

Peak HN to clearly not even spend 1 minute to understand the content to then come in the comments ranting about how bad it is and that it's wrong. Sure, some of the ordering of difficulties may be off but a lot of it is subjective depending on what you already know I'd say. I think they're a good way of getting some motivation of projects to undertake

A procedure I’ve been impressed with is that as soon as you disclose an allergy, the manager will come over with the massive allergen booklet, help take your order and then go and feed that back to the kitchen straight away.

Of course it gets to a point of diminishing returns where you can only rule out so much if the risk but all it should take is proper labelling of ingredients in dishes and training to make sure these processes are followed.

As the other commenter noted, only dishes for those with an allergen need to be prepared separately

I don't subscribe to this take either. As the partner of someone with a server nut allergy why should we be restricted to only eating food we have prepared? Restaurants have to be able to cope with catering to common allergies, it's really not hard. Some people / establishments just don't seem to take it seriously though, like when a flight attendant told my partner she would be fine to eat the snacks they handed out and that they didn't contain nuts... the bag of roasted corn and nuts...

Why can't we blame those who prepared the food? In settings such as this, at a company as large as Disney, it's not acceptable for there to be cross contamination of allergens. If it turns out to be a mislabelling of ingredients or some other factor outside the restaurant's control then fair enough but you can't just absolve them of their responsibility claiming it's "the universes fault".
