Thanks for the responses, I'll just get the cheapest option.

Hi, Hopefully a relatively quick question but I'm looking to get a full set of new tyres. I'm looking at Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance when I look at many sites (Here's National for example https://www.national.co.uk/tyres-search?width=205&profile=55&diameter=17&rating=V~&loadindex=91)...

It's interesting that we always look to the stick rather than the carrot when it comes to obesity. I think we should consider more ways of motivating people to exercise and eat healthier options rather than punishing them if they don't with higher tax foods etc. I quite like the Vitality...

That's a fair challenge, my original comment was about a comparison between a Northern and London salary wise, and yes I think a salary of 95K in London will get you a similar lifestyle to 65K in the North.

It varies massively to be honest in my experience. There's nice areas in Manchester, Leeds or York that are getting closer to London prices, especially post covid. That said I'd still map a Northern salary of between 65-75K to a London salary of about 95K-115K.

£150k salary + ~£140k stock and I live in the North not always been that way though and due to a combination of a lot of hard work and some good fortune to get here.

Overall the original M1 13" Macbook Pro. But honourable mentions to the iPhone 6S+, ~2015 MBP Intel, M1 Max 16" MBP and 5th gen iPod Nano.

Iterm2 with oh my zsh and homebrew Datagrip for Postgres / general database work Openlens for anything k8s related Docker desktop and like everyone else it seems VScode with half a million extensions.

I'm really mixed about it, I'm a lot more productive at home (probably upwards of 25%) due to the lower number of distractions but you have to figure out good ways of working with your teams to make it effective and if you're in a management role it can be a challenge if some folks aren't great...

So we're coming up to year three since I started this process, in a weird way sharing here helps me remember where I was, where I am now and hopefully it helps other members, I don't post on any other forums so in a way this if more for me than anyone else. So as my original posts stated I was...

I'm not sure that's quite the sensible strategy, have children even though you don't like them on the off chance you might like them when you do?

DINK here to. I grew up without much, my parents probably should have chosen either not to have kids or to have less than they did which probably tints my view. Ironically I'm probably in a great position to have them if I wanted. I think if you find yourself in an environment with kids around...

Yes I work in cyber security and have done for around 15 years. Depending on role it'll be quite a challenge from your current background if you want to go into a technical role. If you're looking for a like for like role, I.e. compliance in the cyber security field that might be more accessible...

I think this has been really poorly dealt with, I'd rather not be part of a forum that supports spending the money of someone who hasn't passed away yet. If you could delete my account please mods that'd be appreciated.

It requires thought once it happens, what requires thought right now is how he looks after a family member who is clearly unwell.

I'll be honest and say I think that 'offer' is probably legitimate and the only likely path out of the immediate conflict. Whilst Ukraine are doing amazingly well, they are supported by huge Western support, and that western support is feeling the strain of energy and cost of living issues...

That's really nice, which model is that?

As a kid I used to love to listen to the radio, I got some of those headphones will a built in radio when I was about 10 and I'd listen to the likes of Talk Sport (James Whale) until late, even later in life I quite liked Radio 5 (up all night). When I think about it, I'm not really sure why I...

It looks likely it will be a period of significant house price falls and serious financial strain for the majority of home owners. I can't see how mortgage rates will not hit 10% in the next 6 months and that would likely lead to a ~20% drop in house prices. Unfortunately those most affected...
