He was a professor at my old alma mater, Queen's University of Belfast. I remember hearing a story about him going to Harvard to give a lecture and, as he was presented, one of their professors referred to himself as the "Hoare of Harvard"


Great news, and with the 92% effective covid vaccine, Moderna are really killing it.


Also there was a famous media interview by clive sinclair telling customers they could fix an issue with the a ram pack upgrade falling off with the use of blu tac


OH no!


That guy stuffing his face like it's a movie theater.


most off-putting.


Telling on themselves


Ivermectin has shown great promise not only treating symptons of covid (5000% reduction in viral load in one paper) but also as a prophylactic. The small studies released recently suggest up to 83% effectiveness as a prophylactic. Of course larger RCT will need done, but fat chance of that with the economic incentive for big pharma and their politcal cronies and the weird political push to get EVERYONE vaccinated.

It saved my ass. My regular gp's advice was just to live with long covid for the next 12 months or so until it went away. He couldn't prescribe it so I found the horse paste and got better.


Reeks of try hard blog posting. First 4 have nothing to do with remote working. Last one is about people not turning cameras on and using audio only, not weird or "ineffective" at all.


I agree with you. The article is filled with weird comparisons to real life, where the author draws these "equivalencies" that are nowhere near equivalent.

No, having your camera off is nothing like showing up to work in an anonymous mask with your initials embroidered on your clothes (point probably made tongue in cheek but the author still used it to support their argument)

No, going to lunch at noon without typing "brb" is not the same as turning around mid conversation with someone and walking away unexpectedly.

Points can be made without hyperbole.


It's even better - they work out if you paid too much automaticallly and send you a check in the mail. Had 3 checks over the past decade or so from having time off between jobs but paying full rate for the remaining time. Nothing quite so satisfying as a £1000 check from HM Revenue and Customs!


Finland has next step. They have my account number in records so every year they move what they owe me automatically to my account.


Would I be correct in suspecting that you don't get interest on overpaying, but get charged serious fees for having to pay too much on tax day?


No. HMRC pay interest on money they hold that belongs to you. You pay interest if you fail to pay on time.

They may additionally fine you though.


You should be furious that you gave them a free loan.


Feel like shit, just want him back.


Just two more weeks.
