I used to be of that mindset (re: become a republic) but tbh I'm more of the line of thinking, if it ain't broke... With the parliamentary style of government, you need a figurehead. So you'd have to tear up a whole host of UK conventions going back centuries and re-jig everything, just so someone else gets the ceremonial role?
Much as some might like a complete re-write, I say expand the unit tests around it if minor bugs arise ( e.g. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-15492607 ) and let the system run unless a major blocker comes up ;)
> I can backlog it as a bug, but it's not going to be easily searchable.
In my experience, I've marked it as a bug, comment with the stack trace and mark as U. Then when it arises again, hopefully someone searches for a part of the stack and comes lucky or more often than not, I (or others) will hear of the crash and relay the bug info. Bug is updated with any new info and live continues until it crashes again... Not perfect by any means. I'd love to hear how others deal with this
> I don't know where to start, consider me triggered ;-)
Ha! You and me both. As an Irish lad in the UK, one of the funniest things I still encounter is republicans (British ones!) who hold him up as a hero. You really have to wonder at times.
> If you believe nobody credible opposes the UK government, you've been fed a narrative.
That's a complete strawman. You gave a letter signed by a massively padded out list of "academics" (probably intended to scare your average layman) and when pointed out that astronomers and students probably don't have much to offer right now
I bought a lot of canned and long lived foods (ones I'd buy anyways), toilet paper, tissues and medicines. Can't get hand sanitiser in any supermarkets since last Friday.
I wouldn't work for a company involved in the deliberate taking of human life.
There's a lot of big gambling companies near me that have me conflicted. I enjoy a flutter and all, but you hear of some people and how they're addicted to it. I dunno, I just stay clear. There's other jobs out there
Well depends on the country more than company, doesn't it? I have 34 days PTO this year, which is not out of the norm for my peers and broadly in line with previous employers.
I wonder if that's a common theme among long time emigrants? I moved to the UK just over 5 years ago, I love home but find it slightly depressing being back there for more than a couple of days.
Yawn, some people will go. They probably would have anyways. Life goes on. All the celebs who said they'd leave, won't. I'm getting tired of seeing this again and again
Call them forced to migrate, indented servants or whatever makes yourself feel good. I'll stick with the accurate term for such.
Edit: Sorry for being a dick, I made assumptions there.
