"But, if a composite is full of a measure that’s biased, how accurate is it going to be?" Does it matter if the measure is biased, if you're measuring over time and looking for comparative differences?

This already kind of happens. There is a right wing commentator who blocked me as I kept fact checking his posts. However, if I create a list and someone on that list retweets the blocker's post, I can see it. Clearly Twitter can'

It doesn't help that the pens look like they have a full dose of liquid, but the dispenser mechanism doesn't allow you to get to it.

I want to know how these people are in the UK legally. To get a work visa you need to be sponsored by an employer. I struggle to believe UberEats and Deliveroo are sponsoring people from Brazil to come to the UK.

The books weren't accurate though. Autonomy sold a lot of hardware and booked it as sales, but hide the costs as marketing. The also signed deals with resellers and recorded it as sales, but without actually selling software to the end

I wonder if there is a technicality in the wording. It says "Ambulances have been called out" or "called to" it doesn't say they "attended" the warehouses. 999 operators will triage and prioritise ambulanc

I'd never heard of broadcast.com before, it is the inspiration for ROI (Radio on the Internet) and Russ Hanneman?

They didn't actually receive $445m in cash money though, surely? It must have been contingent on them having a working product, IT MUST????

Exactly. And almost everyone I knew who got discount boxes simply decided what recipes they liked and then bought the ingredients from the supermarket for half the price.

Are those blob storage options significantly cheaper than Google? I fear we are being pushing down a GCP route as it is what out consultancy know, rather than the best solution.

No. The application gives each document a unique filename and they are then only accessed via the application doing forwards.

No, not global. Each office only really need access to their own documents, there are over 2,000 offices though. It does need to be high speed and yes cost is a factor.

Is Tesla luxury? I was surprised the first time I sat in a Model 3 how "normal" it was. OK, it had a massive screen, but the materials were no where near as nice as my 2019 Lexus and some were downright tacky.

The issue I have with IT departments is that they see their job as implementing the technology and then putting the "guard rails" in place, but not producing standards and ways of working. As a consequence I spend too long sifting

No, the media are just useless. From the endless promotion of SBF to heralding Elizabth Holmes as the messiah, the media seem to do zero due diligence on the subjects they report on.

You need to earn £45k a year in order to pay in more Income Tax than you take out. You need a household income of £60k a year to make a net contribution in VAT. Only around 20% of people in Britain earn these amounts, which means 80% of peo

The reason resellers exist is because people are prepared to pay many multiples of the face value for tickets. If people stopped buying tickets on the secondary market, the resellers would be left with worthless paper they paid thousands of

Funny, I read The New New Thing last month (yes, I'm a bit late the the party). I do enjoy Michael Lewis, but you have to take it with a pinch of salt. Similarly though, when HFTer start to circle you do wonder if he has hit a nerve. A

Maybe working at Twitter has been a complete doss these past few years and people realise they'd have to work twice as hard regardless of whether they stay or move elsewhere? Let's be honest, it isn't as if Twitter is introdu
