every year you will get more and more tired and less and less able to do the stuff you used to like to do (especially the silly poo poo, like staying up too late or drinking too much or eating an entire cake or whatever)

But then you find joy in new things too. Also nieces and nephews start to appear.

I feel you man. I've spent 8 years slowly fixing my flat and I feel like its falling apart faster than I can put it right.

Insurance can gently caress off as well. Never covers anything.

I wasn’t living in the U.K. back then, but is this what it felt like during Major’s premiership after Black Wednesday - abundantly clear that the Tories were a shambles and would not win the next election, yet the country was still stuck with them as a zombie government for multiple years?

(Edit: and all we had to look forward to was a New Labour government that wouldn’t challenge Tory orthodoxy?)

I was pretty young at the time but I have vague memories of the Tories all turning on each other, back benchers openly insulting Major during PMQ's, everyone just sort of watching the clock for the next election.

According to the most recent FT/Chapel Hill polls both major parties are chasing each other to the right while relying on culture wars for a differential.



The average voter bloc looks like:


Labour now outside of the labour voting bloc, fast exiting the lib dem sphere and firmly in the middle of the cons voting base.

Looks accurate to me.

Can confirm. I work on a mobile game with constant live multiplayer events and basically all our design data for them is in a combination of Google and Excel sheets.

I mean, I get it. I still see these lovingly crafted rube goldberg excel sheets from time to time and think "gently caress me, why isn't this just a web form?"

But surely its not so bad if you're just plotting an event timeline, right? What should the games industry be using?

I became an excel legend at work when I found a way to force SUMPRODUCT to act conditionally in the same way as SUMIFS (maybe excel just does this now anyway, but it was a useful formula to learn).

Excel queries are a gateway drug to becoming a programmer, get out while you can.

The government and the media blow issues wildly out of proportion to distract the public from the real problems. Same as it ever was.

Its that nobody called her out that makes me upset. Shes just allowed to keep being an ignorant racist moron without being challenged.

"Shareholders" are panicky idiots who deserve to be separated from their pretend money, if you ask me.

Some employees get paid partially in shares.
