This guy called Pete down the pub is a pretty switched on guy. Maybe they mean him.

Dying Light, the zombie parkour game was also good and had great movement mechanics.

If Trump is a Russian asset as we all believe then Putin will have irrefutable proof that would be able to put Trump in prison.

He’s also likely to have evidence of other crimes that everyone is pretty sure that he has done and is doing.

A lot of the publicly available stuff has a lack of evidence, a lack of motivation to get the evidence or a lack of will to impeach and prosecute a sitting president. It’s possible that Putin could release enough information to overcome those barriers.

We only have the headlines to go off but it looks like the prosecution have offered the Texas guy a plea deal but haven’t offered Luigi one.

That means that the death penalty was technically on the cards but it doesn’t mean that they were actually going to go for it.

I think that the main difference is that developers tend to test for success (i.e. does it work as defined) and that testers should also test that it doesn’t fail when a user gets hold of it.

I have worked with some excellent testers but I have also worked with a team that literally required us to write down the tests for them.

To be fair, that wasn’t their fault because they weren’t testers. They were finance people that had been seconded to testing because we didn’t have a real test team.

The current team is somewhere in between.

I wish our test team was like that. Ours would respond with something like “How would I test this?”

That’s what I was thinking except I was thinking about the military. Why are the numbers for health so much lower than for war. It’s not a little lower it’s multiple zeroes lower and that’s not just the US. The UK is paying $22m to the WHO but has a military budget more than 3,000 times larger!

I don’t understand the downvotes. If this isn’t wtf material I don’t know what is.

P.s. I hate it.

Also various places want their stolen objects back from our museums.

Finders keepers shut up!

The West can’t trust America anymore when they used to be the most reliable partner which shows that everyone needs to reduce their reliance on external states as much as possible.

We relied on Russia for energy when they weren’t a friendly country. We still rely on China for tech and manufacturing and they can’t be described as friendly. And then we find out that we’re too reliant on USA who also turned out to be unfriendly.

 

All the news on his speech seems to be about HS2 but I think that this is important too.
