@MartinSLewis Scrap the lower and upper thresholds for auto-enrolment pensions. X% of your salary should mean X% of your salary.

@VirginAtlantic Thanks. So it will be a full meal after take off even with a 10pm departure?

[Ian Tommins @IanTommins]

@VirginAtlantic What meal service do you provide on flights departing at night? Specifically VS42 SFO-LHR in Upper. Thanks.

@BristOliver The thing that stands out to me on that graph is how flat bar/restaurant visits are after the first wave. Small dip for second wave. US data but no thanksgiving peak. Tiny dip when cases rise in Jan. No recovery towards 2019 levels (graph maybe ends too soon for that?).

@CFDevelop Do you have any tracking on how many people have read your docs and how many have revisited them? Someone asking for a walk through is very visible to you. Someone reading the docs and successfully completing their task could be invisible.

@Morrisons why do you allow such big queues to build up in your st James st Brighton store? Nearly 20 people filling up an entire aisle and not a single manned checkout open!

@CliffordAgius @dotnet ResXResourceManager. It's available as a VS plugin or a standalone app. Also supports export/import to Excel. I configure it to sort the resx files alphabetically by key, which reduces merge conflicts compared to adding new ones at the end of the file.

@adamj89 @Sigo_TTV @MSEducationUK @msdevUK It's a shame there hasn't been more student engagement because there's some good courses there.

[Ian Tommins @IanTommins]

@adamj89 @Sigo_TTV @MSEducationUK @msdevUK Possible way of getting to 9960:
979 registrations = 9790
3 students access MS Learn = 30
2 students complete path = 20
2 students pass exam = 100
1 student fails exam = 20

Looks like university registered everyone, but only 3 students engaged with course.

@BristOliver I'm willing to overlook the linear scale this time, but why is there space below 0?

@dpihac @housecor A hot fix can still go through the normal deployment process. My team does releases every two weeks. For us a hot fix just means a change that is made to the branch that is currently in production, instead of the branch being tested.

[Ian Tommins @IanTommins]

@bhcitynews It's not going to increase the price people are willing to pay. It'll just mean that some of that money goes to the council instead of all going to the vendor.

[Ian Tommins @IanTommins]

@Tesco just spent ages queueing for fuel at your Bristol Eastville store because pay at pump was broken. Some signs or a member of staff in the queue telling people not to use pay at pump would have saved us loads of time.

That didn't age well.

@mapgiedev There's an xkcd for that

@asgrim @DaveLiddament Surely that's on PHP for introducing backwards-incompatible changes in 8.2? The alternative is not being able to upgrade to 8.2 because your dependencies haven't released a version declared as compatible, even when their latest version would work fine.

@bagder No chance of a rustURL project then?

[Ian Tommins @IanTommins]

@absoluteradio I suggest Wham, then everyone knows they are safe because it won't be repeated.

[Ian Tommins @IanTommins]

@madSimonJ Only use every other version of Windows. XP, 7, 10, 12.
Avoid 2000, Vista, 8, 11.
Seems to be a pattern that they change too much, then they go back on some things and the world catches up on the rest.
