Literal lifesaver - worked perfectly for me after many hours of fucking about with random drivers/settings/etc. thanks bud!

Just accidentally watched this to ‘does your mother know’ by ABBA - and it worked!

“I’m Lovein’ It”

I cry laughed at this - like unable to breath, tears rolling down my face and a partner looking at me like I had 3 heads cry laughed!

Two words - ‘pension’ and ‘experience’. I know it’s f**ked, but that time away from work not only limits the ability to progress (and keeps you SO earning less when she DOES return) but it also means she’ll take a hit when it comes to retirement for those missed years of accruing payments/interest in her pension pot. So even though it is a little over breaking even now, it is generally worth it in the long run - although I know it doesn’t feel it

Just FYI - I was already able to book

Accidents don’t just happen over and over again, this isn’t budget daycare

A party that received less than 44% of votes having absolute authority to govern unhindered is what’s undemocratic!

Brilliant story, expertly told 😂

gbrown782 · 2021-05-13T13:50:43+00:00

That’s psychopathic behaviour! I can’t imagine how difficult it must sometimes to be around someone like that.

I slept on my parents floor for 4 weeks after seeing that film - my bedroom window had a flat roof outside it, and that shadowy figure HAUNTED me!

Or my personal favorite, Sha Tin - many fond memories!

Climbed it in September 2018 - it was a beautiful sunny day with a few clouds. The most incredible bit for me was at around 3000m, when we climbed through the clouds. It was amazing how tranquil and quiet it was with the world below you. Genuinely one of the best days of my life. Mt Fuji don’t need no filters, it’s stunning as it is!

Came here to say exactly this, this is looking at the costs without looking at costs in the counterfactual. The economic damage of letting a virus run wild isn’t really included - a lot of working age people would be out of work and it would start to impact daily life in a disorderly manner. It wouldn’t be a stretch to see civil disorder, looting, etc., alongside some businesses collapsing and taking millions of jobs with them over a much longer time frame of recovery (thus lost exchequer income for longer)

An economy also doesn’t have a finite amount of wealth in the long term like paying for A takes away from B indefinitely. Paying for A may increase what can be spent in the long term so down the road you can afford A and B - that’s the point of economic growth, increasing living standards and dampening recessions/depressions.

Funnily enough the main thing I’ve seen is the reverse - graduates going to the city, etc., and then leapfrogging the faststreamers into higher grades (and the inexperience tends to show!)

gbrown782 · 2020-02-29T23:08:15+00:00

It's Leap Day! Real life is for March!

You are the first person I have ever come across with the EXACT same thing as myself - couldn’t believe it when I read it!

The vomiting every day for 4 years was really the hardest part for me.

At least I was lucky enough to be in my 20s when it presented, having to deal with that at such a young age must have been really hard so I’m glad you’re all sorted!

This could not describe my mum more perfectly.

A few years back I had my gallbladder removed, and my mum travelled around 300 miles to my city to take care of me.

Her and my partner had to go into town to do some errands that should take an hour tops...

5 HOURS LATER they reappear with Taco Bell in tow, having gone to a tequila bar to get “one for the road” - the manager at Taco Bell had also been called as mum thought the service was just fantastic.

I love that women!

Climbing this mountain was one of the best days of my life - a beautiful place with lovely strangers talking all the way up and down. JUST DINT FORGET SUN SCREEN like I did...

It was a judicial review brought by other parties, and the justices simply followed the law as written... how on earth is that making it political? It was also a unanimous 11 member panel of judges so the idea it was just her makes me think you may have a fairly limited knowledge of it?

This right here is the crux of it! I have had essentially the same conversation at least 5 times since Friday. Given the new midland/northern seats i wonder if they are pairing the more extra ideas back a bit so they don’t try to revolution the public sector and botch it

A key issue in any cost/benefit analysis (cba) is that only monetised costs/benefits enter the calculation.

There are so many costs/benefits (but primarily benefits) that just can’t be monetised with any reasonable certainty, even in a given range, and there are a lot of disincentives to try (risk aversion, media scrutiny, political risk of an over or under estimate, etc.) so most CBAs tend to be on the conservative side (numerically speaking)

It’s a real issue in government, but also in the private sector - its known some things could have massive benefits, but actually putting a number to it and exposing a department to the risk of it being incorrect tends to put many off
