    Gatwick already had it too, at least a part of it. The fact Heathrow got 30/40% more traffic than other airports in the same continent already having it doesn’t make the news worth…

    IP based exclusion should not be considered a security measure, not even for a low risk environment like a home lab

    I don’t hate UK, otherwise I wouldn’t be so critical about it, I wouldn’t care if I hated it. It’s okay if you wanna keep the head in the sand. I get it. It’s better if you don’t k…

    Ask anyone from French, Spain, Italy, Greece, etc. living in London and in tech if they believe their British peers are their equals intellectually. There is a reason why these peo…

    I am saying that these rankings are onanistic if you factor in that post industrial education has already fucked up British education. I don’t mention which country in Europe becau…
