It’s not just about the p-value being more than 95%, the power also needs to be above 80% and we need to have run for at least a business cycle.

At the end of my in laws small 8mx8m garden is a freight train line, and honestly, you just don’t hear it anymore once you’re used to it.

A bogus gasman, here to ransack yer hoose.

I just use my teeth and it horrifys anyone I’m with…

Jokes on them though, because I’m the one with an open beer.

I get paid 4 weekly so get 13 pays a year.

Even better if you keep schtoom about it and automate your work from home job allowing you to just chill for most of the day.

In Europe over 60,000 people died in 2022 due to heatwaves.

People are blind to these deaths because they’re not being taken out by a single devastating event, but rather a series of small events the people brush off as “they were going to die anyway”.

It’s one of the reasons I’ve not, and will not have children. This is getting exponentially worse and I couldn’t image the horror that our future will face.

My next door neighbour has a dog that just screams and wails all day. It sounds horiffic, but because it’s got food water and shelter and doing it in the day time when his owners are at work it’s ok (says the local authority).

The only benefit to an automatic is being able to eat a burrito while driving.

Still doesn’t outweigh the niceness of driving a manual.

I work on websites and have carried out extensive user testing to get the right non-binary honorific, and it ended up being Mx.

Implemented it on every site I’ve worked on now.

It’s always fun to answer the door to JW when you’re a goth. They’re already in a state of panic before you’ve opened your mouth.

It’s clear you have never met a woman…

Also has a life because WOMEN CAN MULTITASK APPARENTLY.

From someone who once drank an ashtray on a pub bet, I’ve definitely drank some worse coffees.

This is true, they try to hide this type of activity, and if you fight it they’ll take you down too. Source: personal experience.

18°C in the winter, and off completely in the summer.

I thought 500 quid seemed a bit light to be mending generational wealth accumulation.

This seems much more in line with what I would expect.

Note, I’m a statistician, but don’t do maths outside of 9-5 /s

TrustArc is website cancer.

Accept and they’re gone in an instant, reject and they make it fucking annoying…

I reviewed them as part of an RFP exercise to implement a cookie tool, and was shocked at their practices.

My biggest fear is that you are aware of everything and can feel the pain when under, but forget it all - men in black style - to leave a relatively ok experience if not a little sick feeling.

It’s treating animals in a way that you wouldn’t treat humans because it’s wrong/illegal.

Keeping them as pets, breeding them, caging them (slavery)

Eating them, or using their products (cannibalism)

Wearing their skins (is there even a name for that?)

I came across it when I was young as a family member worked in animal activism and was horrified that I had a pet.

That’s a great idea.

At 14/15 you want to fool about if you have an equally young partner and there’s nothing really criminal about it - just discovering sexuality.

14 and 30 though really does have a different ring to it and if that’s considered, then credit to the system.
