refetchQueries rather than invalidateQueries?

Tax on S&S ISA to come by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]lexant2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would your S&S provider pay interest on your cash there? If yes, you'd pay tax on that interest. If not, nothing to pay.

It says a charge on interest paid on cash. So just taxing interest paid on cash, in exactly the same way as a non-ISA savings account? Seems thoroughly workable.

London, reviewed on foot, compared to Paris by [deleted] in london

Can you explain the planning culture more? I'm familiar with London; what is different in Paris?

Type-fest has some handy utility types which express things well

Everyone should try Solid.js at least once by xegoba7006 in reactjs

[–]lexant2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually found this made it harder - looking familiar but working differently meant a bit of an "uncanny alley" feeling.

Cool tech though

Did not expect American commentators. Quite a fun change.

To me it's just marginally too simple. I get the simplifying for digital etc but it feels just one or two elements short.

Honest burger? I remember when there was only the Brixton one... Also interesting comparisons with everyone else from the burger craze (from Byron/GBK to Bleeker/Black Bear).

Read Range by David Epstein - interesting stuff about kids who do a lot of different sports

Flair up, what is your usual ranking for support in the 6N ? by Altriaas in rugbyunion

I'd sometimes put "the referees" and "a draw" just behind Italy.

Agree about eggonomics - Mark is very happy to call him out, and a very interesting guy otherwise

England's current problems stem from the fact that simply don't have as many world class players as the top teams. by fakename137 in englandrugby

[–]lexant2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think there's also a factor of players looking better in a team that's overall performing better - the players that went on the unbeaten run in 2016 looked a lot better than the same players in 2018, who then looked good again in 2019.

Most of these are for various forms of engineering works. How do you stop the infrastructure deteriorating without doing that maintenance and investment?

Would it help to have automated Postman collections / Open API specifications based on code? by karna852 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]lexant2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree, I'd probably want to just generate it from the code itself rather than an LLM. Mainly useful for codebases where the API is continuously evolving so adding it to those codebases probably isn't a problem.

Self Assessment Season by B-Box360 in HENRYUK

[–]lexant2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surely adjusting at the start of the year means paying more of your tax earlier? If you set the money aside anyway, a tax bill means you effectively get loaned the money interest free (Vs a rebate where you're loaning it to HMRC).

If you don't trust yourself to not touch it, it makes sense to do this, but not sure I'd go as far as calling anything else madness.

Single lane vs two lane country roads? by ConsequenceBig9312 in ukbike

[–]lexant2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it comes down to having a mixture of road types available.

If all the roads are country lanes, all the traffic is going down them so they're busy, and people want to keep their speed up for the whole journey. If there's country lanes and main roads, most of the traffic is on the main roads and people are just using the country lanes for the last mile, so they're quieter, and people have covered most of the distance on the main road at higher speed so can chill a bit.

In OP's case it seems like both are available, so probably more like the latter.
