It’s not just about the p-value being more than 95%, the power also needs to be above 80% and we need to have run for at least a business cycle.

In terms of infosec, it’s better for each to have it’s own account as you don’t want any linkages to other organisations with your data.

It’s a gigantic pain in the hole though when you use a password manager.

I test drove an Alfa Romeo Giulia and it was a shambles from beginning to end.

He pulls the demo car round, and it was out of fuel, had a flat tyre, the engine management light was on, and the oil temp was sky high.

This was the demo car. The one they use to sell people on the brand.

Noped right out of there and bought German.

At the end of my in laws small 8mx8m garden is a freight train line, and honestly, you just don’t hear it anymore once you’re used to it.

A bogus gasman, here to ransack yer hoose.

AND SHOUT OUT TO HER FAMILY

Thanks! I’m now working in a new role where there is no more ridiculous pressure or wild expectations and have been able to commit to working on a degree (because I fucked up the first one).

Work shouldn’t leave you panicking on a monday morning or crying into your lunch.

My old boss gave me a load of shit for writing down tasks that I had to do. He just couldn’t comprehend that it wouldn’t stick if it wasn’t written down.

He took my book from me, and then asked me to do a bunch of complicated stuff each with its own deadline.

He then got annoyed when I didn’t do the stuff because I hadn’t written it down because he took my book.

He got sacked, I got promoted.

I just use my teeth and it horrifys anyone I’m with…

Jokes on them though, because I’m the one with an open beer.

You can get as good as that as standard in the UK.

I get 36 days PTO, the legal minimum is 28 days. 25% bonus. Pension contribution, I pay 4%, company pays 8%. Health insurance included, but the NHS will cover most stuff.

This isn’t even a senior level position, it’s bottom level. Seniors get way more.

I get paid 4 weekly so get 13 pays a year.

Even better if you keep schtoom about it and automate your work from home job allowing you to just chill for most of the day.

In Europe over 60,000 people died in 2022 due to heatwaves.

People are blind to these deaths because they’re not being taken out by a single devastating event, but rather a series of small events the people brush off as “they were going to die anyway”.

It’s one of the reasons I’ve not, and will not have children. This is getting exponentially worse and I couldn’t image the horror that our future will face.

My next door neighbour has a dog that just screams and wails all day. It sounds horiffic, but because it’s got food water and shelter and doing it in the day time when his owners are at work it’s ok (says the local authority).

The only benefit to an automatic is being able to eat a burrito while driving.

Still doesn’t outweigh the niceness of driving a manual.

I work on websites and have carried out extensive user testing to get the right non-binary honorific, and it ended up being Mx.

Implemented it on every site I’ve worked on now.

I see you also are a project manager.

It’s always fun to answer the door to JW when you’re a goth. They’re already in a state of panic before you’ve opened your mouth.

It’s clear you have never met a woman…

Also has a life because WOMEN CAN MULTITASK APPARENTLY.

Same, but I’m in Scotland. I was out shovelling snow in a vest and leggings and my neighbour who was dressed for an arctic expedition was horrified.

I’m just built for a different climate.
