  1. "England built"..... Britain. :-(

  2. ...not to mention that the huge success of ARM is an in-EU story and that it's story starts with Acorn computers founded by Chris Curry and Herman Hauser who is Austrian. Those horrible immigrants, eh.....?

  3. Good, the further away the better :-)

  4. Lots of people claim to have invented computers including the Germans. It just depends on whether you think vaccum tubes or electro-mechanical logic gates or transistors or a design on paper or whatever is the critical distinguishing factor.

  5. Perhaps you could start the ball rolling.

  6. The worst case for London is much worse than the worst case for the EU though.

  7.  @gregorymalchuk272  no they're not - they're providing cheap unsubsidised power here in the UK - they are the cheapest to build, the fastest to get going. There's really no point in being a luddite.

  8. If house prices go down a lot of people will be "under water" which means in heavy debt with something they cannot afford to sell. But of course you are thinking about yourself.

  9. The only reason the US gets to borrow heavily is because people trust it. Being able to borrow is a sign of great success.

  10. That's thinking about it the wrong way around completely. There is X money on the market for investment and the country that can soak it up can invest it to grow its economy faster. If people won't trust you or think they won't get their money back then they won't lend it to you and some other country will get it instead. So the big debt is a sign of the faith investors have in America and a sign that America's economy is able to make good use of all that borrowing and pay back. It's shitty untrustworthy countries that cannot get debt because no-one trusts them.

  11. Train travel in Europe makes most sense if you want to get in and out of a densely populated city where there is good public transport so you can journey on from the train station to your destination easily. If your transport options to and from the train station aren't great then you're not really solving the user's problem.

  12.  @terriblepainter7675  You haven't flown over the UK's windfarms in the sea recently - they're huge and they make a very big contribution.

  13.  @gregorymalchuk272  They're the cheapest form of energy in the UK now.

  14.  @gregorymalchuk272  you provide no scientific basis for your claim, meanwhile we'll just install more ...

  15.  @gregorymalchuk272  Hydro and compressed air are already in use - so I think your statement is incorrect.

  16.  @gregorymalchuk272  Liquid air storage is a thing which can be built with todays technology and, actually is being built.

  17.  @gregorymalchuk272  liquid air storage is built and larger and larger plants are being put in its not fancy technology.

  18.  @gregorymalchuk272  you should probably be telling Ofgen to take a course - apparently you know more than the entire industry. Meanwhile more turbines are built of larger size and our industrial society will have a small chance of not being broken by climate change

  19. We already have post quantum encryption algorithms. We're really waiting for Quantum computing to become obviously dangerous to start using them.
