Not everything, but this is.

In the UK, she has some claim to shared equity.

I take it you didn’t read the article?

It turns out that “the threadiverse” is not “Threads”.

I don’t know where you get “listing” = “logging”. It’s a term (apparently archaic, today I learnt I’m old) for the text of a program.

TBH the UK in the single market is a better outcome for the UK as well as the EU. It puts something like reins on our frequently out-of-control government and leaves one powerful neoliberal voice out of the shouting match.

You’re kidding. It’d be an astonishing political victory.

I think you vastly overestimate the separability of these systems.

Picture 10,000 lines of code in one method, with a history of multiple decades.

Now picture that that method has buried in it, complex interactions with another method of similar size, which is triggered via an obscure side-effect.

Picture whole teams of developers adding to this on a daily basis in realtime.

There is no “meaningful progress” to be made here. It may offend your aesthetic sense, but it’s just the reality of doing business.

The opposite of “goth” is “ostrich”?

Yeah, I can see that.

You don’t understand correctly. There are a bunch of requirements which (were they not waived, which there’s a nonzero chance they might be) are little more than establishing aspirations - adopting the Euro is one of those.

You say that but based on past performance it’s probably a lie.
