Tax numbers have no bearing at all on your right to work. If you work legally in the UK for a while then you get a national insurance number but if you then leave and your work visa expires, your national insurance number remains as an identifier.
Can't say until the implementation is revealed, but the person you replied to pointed out that fraud at the application stage is a problem.
Checking for right to work has been legally required for over a decade. Checks in the formal economy are now routine. Can sometimes be a nuisance, like for my friend who doesn't have a passport and his driving license was issued before those went photographic.
I have never seen a report of a business ending because of a fine. I have seen reports of hospitality business having to close because they lost their alcohol licence, where the licencee employing illegal immigrants was deemed not to be a fit and proper person.
Recently the prime minister delivered a speech and then later walked the entire thing back saying that he hadn't read it before delivering it. A man who has declared that he is nothing more than a text to speech engine probably doesn't have a plan.
Calling the edge cases correctly, I would think.
I hurt my arm a while back and the ER guy didn't spot the radial head fracture, but the specialist did. No big deal since the treatment was the same either way.
Need to work on the comedic delivery in written form because you just came off as leaning on a stereotype
When I was growing up, it was extremely common for left wing artists to rework and subvert corporate art. It is sad to see activists now so limited in their imagination that their strategy is to run to tell the corporate lawyers. If you wish for more corporate control of intellectual property, well I'm sure the Republicans and the Democrats will both be happy to oblige.
" The best magicians make it look like magic even when you know how the trick is done. "
Agree with this. I remember being the 'skeptic kid' at a birthday party long ago. The magician involved me in a trick everyone could figure out but it was done with charm and I was completely delighted.
Do you think North Korean leaders would be nicer to their people if there were no sanctions?
I'm not debating. I made a statement.
Having to question "do you mean x or y" because the sender is not clear is not iterating.
The third party tooling is constantly at risk of being broken by YouTube. Not sure regulation is the answer either. Any alternative still needs to at least attract creators and cover it's own costs.
Much the same as in a strike when workers get mad at scabs. The person right there in front of you is looking out for their own best interests and in those circumstances that is to your detriment. Capital uses immigrant labor partly for simple price reasons and partly because those workers interests really are different from the locals and their lack of local connection makes them a viable slow motion scab workforce.
Britain tried to impose wage controls after the black death. Results were mixed. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statute_of_Labourers_1351
Plenty of old photos of people running drying lines between them and the opposite tenement building. Not saying people should do that today, just that it's what people did when they had neither space nor means to buy a dryer (or before dryers were invented)
I prefer maps where the arctic ice is shown in white. I know it isn't a landmass but you can go for a walk on it, unlike all the other blue areas.
The CSR shouldn't see the whole string but not all systems follow that approach.
I see what you mean now. But all Luxottica brand name glasses have a big mark-up on a quite cheaply made product. They are better made than what you find on the rack at the supermarket but the perception of luxury comes from marketing.
You would avoid ray ban conventional glasses in protest at their association with meta? Don't forget to avoid the rest of Luxottica Group's products. I would bet (on Polymarket) against such a boycott gaining traction.
As far as I can tell, Signal automatically tells me which of my contacts are already on the app. If someone is willing to switch, the obvious thing to do is install it.
The square in the middle of Woolwich, London has a giant screen showing BBC News all day. No idea who decided to put that there but it gives the place a strong 1984 feel.
The person you replied to says there was no methodology. This is standard for mainstream media, along with no links to papers. If it gets reported in a specialist journal with detail I'll take it more seriously.
Anything? Better than Zombo.com ?
Only worth it for a targeted attack. Even then I might just read the number off a genuine bill instead of their fake one. And that's assuming they have linked my address and number - lots of scam calls are low effort dial every number.
Lord Hermer says Lord Ba'al is entitled to refugee status. [Guardian]
At last, a local AI for Tubbs and Edward.
The man who is the subject of the original post did indeed take on the FBI, who have then given him a figurative and possibly literal good kicking.
I see many English (UK) websites following your second example but none for the first. They need to account for low reading and comprehension skills among users which might explain this style, or it might even be to match search terms.
Just last weekend I finally made a prototype of a game I had been thinking about for a long time. this is not my field but an LLM got me from idea to a playable 'this is what I had in mind' in a few hours. That said, someone who already knows JavaScript could probably have implemented my description quicker and better.
