No magnetic flux = no interest.

Guys, don't click the link. It's actually not about transformers, but in fact some machine learning BS (which, given the peak hype year of 2019 for ML, is not surprising).

> In the UK: Covid will dimish in importance enough for people to disentangle the negative consequences of Brexit, leading to widespread use of the Pikachu shocked face meme. Scottish independence will take a step forward, with a new referendum scheduled for 2023.

Very interesting, transfer of such a financial liability as Scotland from UK to EU may even offset at least some of the Brexit damage! Followed by more Pikachu faces, but under different flags.

Not the worst habit. One vague possibility of a bonus/promotion and they will mess saving feature up one way or the other.

That's a very clever argument actually. Clerks in government just want like better utility knives, instead they will be offered CNC machines!

I recently tried to block YouTube ads on an iPad and failed. Equally surprised to see OS updates bring new feature changes that simply cannot be disabled (tab/app groupings). I mean there aren't that many Safari/iOS config options to choose from to begin with! What an insanity.

Samsung still makes cheap tablets that are awesome in terms of hardware, right?

The intentions there are good, but reads bit unrealistic in some places. Being a boomer, author doesn't realise how far financially he is then many people who are younger.

> Stop wasting your time on commuting, boring jobs, meetings, TV. Do only things that you feel are worthwhile, with people you like. If this means a cut in income, so be it.

TV - sure, commuting - thanks to COVID only, the rest - sorry, but I would like a house/pension/family.

Python, like all dynamic languages, works best to bash out a new project into production ASAP, get a bonus and move on, while poor folks maintaining after you are trying to untangle it.

That means climate change is not that much of an emergency. Not a top priority in terms of expenditure.

Why not fund anti-climate-change projects from welfare funds?

Hearing about a JS framework "X" that is surely that much more elegant than "Y" feels like it's 2010s again!
