I'm not in any way slow to understand, not in this case anyway.

If you can't see why an open border is vital for the continued peace, and why removing it would place tension on a peace that took decades to achieve, then you've already made up your mind.

I didn't say that, and I'm not even going to engage your straw man.

And I did not blame the EU for Brexit woes, I made a pretty basic statement of fact that would probably cover any negotiation, one which was intended only to signal compromise -- hence why the UK did not leave entirely -- not woe or blame.

Link says Government sent a "first signal of its intention", title says "UK to depart".

Comments skip straight to how dumb we all are.

:shrug:

It's just a toy. Dial's are difficult to make work in real UIs but they feature a lot in FUIs. FUIs also assume a lot of knowledge/expertise on the part of the user ... to move the dial with a mouse here you need to hold shift, you can also increment with up and down (or shift up/down).

These dials try to be smarter by calculating the torque value of a mouse/touch movement, so you really have to move around the dial like a real one.

Currencies rise and fall, the cost of Al (in the UK) was more expensive in 2010 than it is now. (And if you're a buyer outside the UK the fall of sterling would be a good thing, no?)

I'm having a hard time getting past the relative difference between the losses and the donations to Green Pastures, to blaming Brexit.

On top of this, comes the inescapable elephant that is Brexit. This may only be one of the factors affecting Wrightbus, but it is arguably the crippling final blow. Wrightbus is a Northern Ireland based supplier, dependent on parts and orders from the EU and beyond, a strong UK economy, and a stable period of national and local government. All of those pillars have been cracked by Brexit.

None of those things have changed, or been changed by Brexit in this timeframe.

In 2018 it reported a loss of £1.7m, citing a difficult UK bus market and near non-existent overseas sales aggravated by Brexit.

https://www.londonreconnections.com/2019/the-rise-and-fall-o...

It [Church set up by Jeff Wright] received more than £15m from the firm in recent years, most of which was donated while the group was profitable.

I'm sure someone smarter than me can explain how Brexit was the cause of Wright's downfall, especially given Brexit hasn't happened.

FWIW our experience was different. We left the hospital after 3 days, during which we received advice from professional midwives, including how to breast feed (and what to do if baby doesn't latch). At home visits from health worker and midwife were regular and data and notes in the red book did not at all seem random.

I would argue that web development is less complicated than it used to be for the same quality of output. We now have source maps, debuggers, bundlers, more powerful languages, apis and a narrow range of browsers to hit with all that.

So now you can be more expressive, target more browsers easily, have greatly simplified script loading and module management, much, much better debugging tools, with less effort.

The tools make it easier for you to be a good developer.

Good web development was never easy.
