Also in the public sector for that matter. There's no way a civil servant would be able to accept any of these bungs or use personal devices for communicating

After this weekend Forest and West Ham have a tougher run, so I think it's definitely possible

Also economic security is something you judge relatively, for example to your community or your parents or your colleagues at work. Reform voters would prefer an out group to look down on and if that can't be economically then it must be done socially (racism, culture wars etc)

I guess the question is, are these reports from Mythos? It seems like existing frontier and specialist models are already good at finding vulnerabilities, so do we need specifically to worry about this model?

Isn't this the purpose of elected mayors? i.e. to drive projects based on their political agendas? If they're just there as an additional layer of admin to carry out the aims of DfT it seems a bit pointless

I'm not sure there is a conflict between these two goals, one is national HE policy and the other is local transport policy. One is short/medium term the other is extremely long term (see previous Leeds transport projects). An MP hoping the Leeds tram breaking ground saves them is in big trouble

Could you elaborate on this? A GPU chip should (if operated correctly) last maybe 10 years? They should still be totally usable for current level inference tasks. Also the buildout of fab capacity will I think lead to cheaper parts when the bubble pops

Oddly it seems less predictable this year, with the parachute teams having a mixed season

A typical US VC will fund a company at seed, series A, B and so on, whereas in the UK it seems like seed/angel funding is readily available but follow on rounds are more likely to be more risk averse traditional institutional money

And it's not only more money, it's more risk tolerant. American VCs will back riskier bets over longer periods

Cynically this sounds like what you might do after cancelling someone's tram

The stuff that worked for us last season is mostly useless in the PL, so we've changed system and theoretically going more direct and physical but Farke doesn't seem totally bought in. That and we're short of goalscorers

It's alright they're gonna build a tram, unfortunately I'll probably be retired by the time it opens

Sorry to hear that James, sounds like a guy who had some great stories to tell!

"X is expensive, so we'll add friction to obtaining X" is a standard pattern to try and control costs. Unfortunately rarely taken into account is the delays and expense incurred upstream from the added friction

I don't think this is clearly true - we get what central government decides because local government is rarely enabled to propose and construct the projects it would in other less centralised nations

The services provided by central government have largely been sustained but the services provided by local government, which are often more visible, have not

I don't support the marchers but this seems very much the "but they have flat screen TVs and sky sports" bit that gets trotted out whenever anyone working class has the temerity to complain that they're having trouble making ends meet

The tools are simple but unfortunately they aren't very good. For example, the standard Windows management tools work well with Edge but don't work if a third party browser is installed. Clean DNS services work but modern browsers can use use DNS over HTTP.

There is a lot of walking involved. Often in seemingly random directions down quite dingy corridors. Manchester is like a scale model of Heathrow built on a budget
