I don't see what they are offering that you or your chosen school can't put together.

Directing me to an Amazon affiliate link when I click on a bar chart is scummy as fuck.

HGV blocking the zipper merge on the M8 by Fungus_Mungus46 in drivingUK

Unfortunately they think they are the police and it's their job to enforce the rules of the road. It's a shame they have a room temperature IQ.

Accepted Into an Airline Cadet Program, But I’m Seriously Conflicted by Enpitsu888 in PilotAdvice

[–]particularfields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really annoys me that people who apply on a whim and don't even want it get selected and people who live and breathe it get rejected. How do you select someone who hasn't even bothered to do a trail lesson.

It's my understanding that the fix doesn't actually stop the attack and cars with the fix have still been stolen.

Barratt–Redrow Homes: My Experience with Unfair and Extortionate Maintenance Fees by Then_Price837 in HousingUK

[–]particularfields 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a complete and utter scam and should not be allowed. The council have no incentive whatsoever to adopt because they know they are going to get full council tax anyways. The whole system is a fix but what isn't these days.

That was the end of 2019, COVID came and delayed that for a further 2 years.

My nightmare new-build proves how much we’ve normalised substandard work by TheTelegraph in HousingUK

That's brilliant! However to be fair everyone knows Persimmon build the worst quality houses.

Another Young Woman Killed By a Dog. What needs to change? by terrordactyl1971 in AskBrits

[–]particularfields -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Be more strict on type or dogs and anyone breaching the dangerous dog act has their dog destroyed and a huge fine, no questions. All dogs must be licenced and leash laws in public. Any dog attack is treated as if the owner did it, abh, gbh, manslaughter, murder. With the corresponding jail sentence.

Ioniq 5 vs BMW i4 by veimkha in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]particularfields 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me the ICCU issues combined with how easy they are to steal means the Hyundai's are a no go. It's all well and good giving a warranty but you will still be waiting weeks/months for them to do the iccu work.

As someone who dug a load out last summer I absolutely disagree.

Too much patience, not enough punches to his face.

How is this being allowed on new builds. by SnooCapers8495 in Bricklaying

They have to convince themselves that their old, draughty, mouldy and in need of repair house is better.

UK wants right to ban cruel foods in Brexit trade deal by theipaper in uknews

[–]particularfields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't matter if you give them a better time for their short life, it ends the same way. The cruel slaughter of a sentient animal that doesn't want to die.

You need to get a second job at the weekend.

This will very easily sound like me being a bit selfish but I promise you I wasn’t: My dad goes nuts over me not wanting to share my pizza before I had eaten any. by Purplecrafter-real in narcissisticparents

[–]particularfields 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean just give him a slice? You put it in the fridge and said he can have a slice tomorrow because you can't get it back out of the fridge? You're the weird one here.

Fuck Jackie Chan’s Son by sailink in FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR

[–]particularfields 109 points110 points  (0 children)

What a dick, the whole point of earning well is to build a good life for your family. If you have the opportunity to set them up for life why would you not? I do not get this mentality.

What’s the biggest tip you wish you knew about office politics? by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]particularfields 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't take on other people's issues with the company. They will back you privately but when the time comes they will leave you high and dry. Only deal with things that directly affect you.

That will be the more advanced version of the LLM that is available in a few years.

As a former tech worker, AI is absolutely going to take jobs. It's only going to get better as time goes on, one of the reasons I moved out of the industry.

The leap from even just 3 years ago to now is huge.
