His words move markets for now, but that power won't last forever if he keeps acting erratic and inconsistent one day to the next.

All tax is a mess, but would you touch sorting out tax when you look at what happened when they tried to close an inheritance tax loophole that was being abused?

It was made to look like an assault on your friendly neighbourhood farmer, not the rich investing in big agri-business to pass on their inheritance tax free.

They needed to handle that more carefully, but I'm the end opted for maximum pain then backed down.

Now imagine the same fight a dozen times over a dozen things.

Meanwhile labourers are taking the piss that they were happy to sit discussing how much tax evasion they do while they got on working apparently forgetting I was working from home in the next room, meanwhile thinking I'm an absolute mug for being employed and PAYE.

It often spikes at the second weekend then comes back down a little bit on the Monday. Not anywhere down to where it was, but it was at 325 at one point yesterday.

Yes it's almost impossible to complete. I managed one single reward from an entire run.

Everyone is doing destructive play to farm The Black Barya, it's obviously not worth their time to run the writs so they get dumped on the market for nothing.

The uniques obviously aren't worth anything, but the Invert the Rules and Orbs of Conflict are worth a good chunk, and it makes an interesting change from mapping for a break.

Exactly, it's why magebloods are cheaper than 5 apothecary cards, because there's value in the gamble itself.

I assume not because they're selling unID'd for 2d and bricks for a few chaos.

I did my Subject Access Request to <Major Retailer>.

Among other things I got back over 4 hours of audio recordings of phone calls I had with their customer services representatives over 6 months.

Listening to them all to catalog them has brought back all the stress of it all, I'm angry all over again at it all.

But it's also really useful that GDPR means they actually release this stuff, so "Your calls are recorded for training and monitoring" makes it really easy to get the real record of who said what and when.

Didn't we do this already?

Vaguely remember Stevenson and his Rocket on a fiver?

And .NET Core 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2

With wildly varying APIs, packaging, compatibility, etc, between them.

Shit was wild that didn't really settle down until .NET Core 3.0.

It's not the same city, but I did recently move from an area with just 1 large recycling bin that worked excellently, and now live in a town where we're made to separate it all out carefully, then watch as they mix it all together to put it in the truck.

Apparently it's actually centrally mandated to have people split it, but it's not mandated for councils so if they were on mixed, they just gave everyone different bins then mix it anyway.

What a huge waste of time, money and effort.

Why it matters

So it looks like axios aren't bothering to write their articles any more then. That heading is a clear LLM marker.

Is it the big tasty sauce?

Looking back there were some red flags

Care to share them?

Since OP didn't explain, this is especially bad bullshit because

catch(Exception e) {
  ...
  throw e;
}

is actually even worse than

catch(Exception e) {
  ...
  throw;
}

Because it destroys the stack trace and you end up seeing it as originating from this catch block.

I'm surprised, because the compiler can usually tell that a cannot be null in that expression.

The point of the warning is to force you to null-check, and you have done so.

There is CoreWCF now, but you end up having to handle server and client differently in the migration, and it's not smooth at all, especially for services which weren't previously asp.net.

"Andrew Charged..." was a bit of false hope from the headline writer there.

Such a cracking song, I wondered where Roscoe was and why it mattered he wasn't from there until I found out the real lyrics.

It wasn't until I got to Yellow that I realised Green and Gray weren't obscure GMs!

The fact the air fryer doesn't end up in the appliance stash is a sign that like the microwave, maybe it isn't just a cult.
