hopefully it gets resolved, Uber is much more convenient than traditional taxis, I love that you pay via the app and know the route you're taking, however the issue around unauthorised drivers using regular drivers' profiles is worrying

the douchebag one is a strange one unless you're going for management :/ where do you see yourself in 5 years though seems a reasonable question; do you want to lead a team, be certified in something, gain experience in x, etc, just pick a career goal from the hat surely

I normally ask what opportunities for growth exist, eg training/certs/online courses etc, and what they like about the company, can normally tell if they like the job/you by how enthusiastic they answer or whether it comes across as scripted

It's quite a scary one, drone swarms that outmatch humans by a huge degree might cause the losing side to surrender before a human life is lost, but they could also massacre the losing sides, satellites and communications of all sides are also likely go, then of course there's still nuclear armageddon

Technically it can pass a short bill that requires just a majority, but it then has to go through lords and is open to amendments

haha yeah he's pretty big, I first heard about him through his Jordan Peterson interviews, but he's pretty good. He's had sports nutritionists on both for and against keto etc, Alex Jones was hilarious and eye opening, so was Tom Delongue (the guy is nuts), James Damore, a number of comedians, Kevin Smith was great, and yeah he just lets them talk, you're free to form your own opinions, it's kinda refreshing and nice to fall asleep to when most youtube vids (even the talky ones) are shrinking to ~10 minutes.

seconded, it's pretty common in the UK to grab a take-out coffee too. When I worked in a bigger city it was sometimes a bit of a treat occasionally to grab one on the way to the office.

You'd think that, but some legacy systems might not have it, I don't want to name and shame, but a lot of our code is on an IBM Series i (used to be called as400?) and the source control for it is basically manually adding a comment with the ticket number next to any changes - unsurprisingly they're a bit coy about the technologies used in interviews and target people fresh out of uni who don't know any better, my recruiter told me it was a Java role lol

It blew my mind, then I tried to hit 'back' and now I understand why nobody does it (yet) :P

2/3 majority wouldn't have made a difference, the referendum wasn't on leaving, it was on staying, the option supporting the motion on the ballot got less than half the votes so it was agreed by parliament we should leave, which seems reasonable and it's shocking govt made such a mess of it.

I'm not sure this is MEPs doing, laws are made by the council I think, and then voted on by MEPs
