It is implied that there is something wrong by the fact that it is mentioned in such a manner.

You just need something with you name and address. Bank statements, council tax, driver license (it doesn't even need to be a full one). It doesn't need to be a utility bill, it ju…

I understand this process that you outline can conceivable happen. However this scenarios is still extremely unlikely. Firstly the cost of a replacement Birth certificate is low. F…

I don't consider a nurse or a pharmacist, or a pub landlord, or someone that own a Limited Company (anyone can setup a LTD) as middle class. Also what is wrong with being middle-cl…

This has nothing to do with passport applications. He is talking about right to work checks. There is nothing excessive about them and they does not require even photo-card ID e.g.…

Apple do this so PWA / Web Apps work poorly on their platform and pushes people to the App Store. It is why I no longer have an Apple Phone. Running things on AWS is just foolish I…

No. I didn't think what I said was that difficult to understand. But I will break it down. - Designers were not working with HTML and CSS (this was about ~2008-2011). I met one "de…

I have never heard the term designer used to describe anyone doing anything else other than creating PSD mockup and later on wire-frames. I have worked in large corps and smaller a…

It was never the norm. I've worked as a contractor/consultant in a lot of places and I saw two people that were "designers" that could write HTML and CSS. That is two people in 18 …

That is unfortunate to hear. I don't really care for any of the political parties in the UK and tell them exactly what I think of them when they knock on my door. I wouldn't trust …

I was still working on Safari Compatibility in 2023. The bugs I was fixing in both CSS and JS were present in the iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4. I was utterly fed up of fixing the same st…

Pandoc would be my preferred tool. It is excellent at converting between other formats as well.
