Google says £1 = $0.83 at the moment - so £4.98 + vat at £0.996

Many years ago, as he got a recall on his VW Polo because the front wheel may fall off, not through loose nuts but rotted out subframe - trouble is he got this a week after it fell off at a junction. Not the brightest spark as he only got it moved after the police prosecuted him for failing to move it for several days
I'd say as long as break was similar to Robert Maxwell's all is good
Seen a Reddit comment - Link
got email from the community manager, that some instances can be down for further two weeks.
This is not how a billion dollar company build the system or handles recovery, I am going to look for an alternative and dump Atlassian as soon as possible.

What this means for your company
We were unable to confirm a more firm ETA until now due to the complexity of the rebuild process for your site. While we are beginning to bring some customers back online, we estimate the rebuilding effort to last for up to 2 more weeks.
I know that this is not the news you were hoping for. We apologize for the length and severity of this incident and have taken steps to avoid a recurrence in the future.
The Faraday cage is to stop a relay attack where a range extender is used to fool the car into thinking key is close to it. One person waves an aerial around the front door of house where lots of people keep their keys and another by the car door, then some electronics picks up the fob's/car's signals and relays them each way enabling them to open door and start car.

A recent twitter post - Watch a Tesla with FSD try to drive through a moving train.
It is not a robust chain they need it is a beholden one and a reasonably steady demand. While the shutdown caused shortages, the problems they are seeing are a result of reducing their orders to their suppliers. The suppliers of key components weren't going to take the hit so started looking for other customers, now they want to ramp up their own production the key suppliers aren't just going switch back to supplying them as they have other orders on the book.
Just in time is not about reducing inventory - it is about pushing the risks onto the supplier and they are now dealing with the fallout when suppliers don't quietly take the hit
give it a few years and they'll forget that.
In their drive to get the leanest possible company they forget you need a certain amount of "slack" in organisation to avoid being too fragile, but then that doesn't matter if you move on with nice bonuses before the brown stuff hits the fan.
There was a failure in switches to indicate the cover had rolled up - that delayed some things and meant some late work - most likely the delay were mainly a result of that and they didn't want to start the critical with people tired
I've been using Amazon less and less over the last few years - mainly because they seem to go out of their way to promote cheap tat
It is worth checking the wiring Regs Part P as it was updated in April 2013 with less stringent requirements as to what was notifiable
That may just be because in past it costs lots of money or you have to be a big provider who'd rapidly be disconnected from world if you try it. There are been BGP Hijacks that may have impacted telecoms providers that likely ended up in phone lines unavailable
However at a smaller scale I believe there have been instances of companies dialling competitors and keeping their phone lines tied up back when everything was caller was only one who could disconnect
When you come to commission the link one of the things you don't want to hear is the guy wiring it up didn't understand twisted pair so didn't worry where to put the black wires from each pair, fortuantely the team lead got it sorted quickly - this was a single circuit site to site V11/RS-422 link so not large and sometime ago
You don't even get a backup battery now and the Nokia ONT I have installed doesn't have a Phone port, which I believe is main BT installs now and the Phone plugs into the SuperHub (or FritzBox used by Zen) so when the power goes you need a UPS covering two or more devices
Yes - but it could do some 32 bit stuff with Win32s and thunking
It does have all the symptoms what we fear of being caught in a bureaucracy nightmare - there was a Romanian in similar position

You can have JavaScript in a PDF Action Run JavaScript file and you can embed documents and it has been possible to run them - Can a PDF file contain a virus?
I'd go with Snail Mail as likely to get there this year
10 years expereince - that's less than half of Asok's intern experience, so another couple of decades and you'll be junior ;)
I doubt they print reliable rocket parts using an Ender, or maybe they do as one was seen in NASA
On a consumer grade FDM/FFM (Fused Deposition Modelling/Fused Filament Fabrication - only prints plastics), like the Enders pictured in the AG Shapiro article, you aren't going to be able to print things like usable barrels, though you certainly can print some parts and moulds.
If you go professional then your choices of materials go up, but so does the expense - from $200/400 for typical Ender to many thousands/10 of thousands
They are probably aiming for everyone to be smiling like Jack Nicholson
Sounds like you are firing blanks to me ;)

There was a plain version of Windows 3.11 which was just a bug fix release - there was also a version 3.1 for Work Groups - but most people would have probably got Windows 3.11 for Workgroups as I believe that was default for OEMs
From what I see the biggest group who benefited by increasing the amount of people heading to university is those who can claim they have lowered youth unemployment and those in charge of universities.
If the person gained benefit from going to college then likely they will be paying with higher taxes over their working lives as they will gain better paid employment - but this is becoming less likely than in past. You'd expect that under normal supply and demand when you increase supply, now add in the increasing tendcy to shift expensive non management jobs to lower cost regions and you are hitting falling value in degrees - so I am not convinced degrees are generally cost effective for the person studying for them now.
Businesses should be gaining benefit for better educated workers - but they seem reluctant to pay for it now.
I wouldn't have been able to work from home in the 90s (and not just because of the lack of Internet) - however the offices I worked in had more space per person and only a few people compared to the open plan ones at work now. So I wonder if it would have been that bad
You know this sort of error is older than computers -
Another serious training mistake was revealed later; the Soviets used their own diesel engine tanks to train the dogs rather than German tanks which had gasoline engines. As the dogs relied on their acute sense of smell, the dogs sought out familiar Soviet tanks instead of strange-smelling German tanks.
Looking in the Oxford Dictionary on the shelf - Gift can be a verb and is 400 years old . I'd usually expect it something like "To Gift something to ..."
I have usually seen it that way in legal documents
I guess the non-approved ones would be the ones that actually worked - used to have to reboot a HP laptop several times a day as the wi-fi card/driver just died and only full reboot would recover it. (It got better after a firmware update) - The only reason I would consider another HP laptop is the works ones I have had since have been pretty reliable.
