I was trying to think how iocaine powder would help in this scenario when I clicked in. Shows how our vernacular was shaped a bit though.


Your car is 13 years old and you could stand to benefit from the safety advantages available in a modern "no auto-cruise or lane assist" vehicle. The safety tech has advanced a lot in that time. This is a quite good way to invest your scrip imo.


A lot of really poor advice so far in this thread. Unfortunately your personal best bet is probably to do nothing. If it really bugged you, find a new job silently because everyone is hiring.

The realistic answer is that you deliver the news to your team during your one on ones, explain the matter was not in your hands, and move on. If someone leaves over pay (which is reasonable) but you do not control pay, then it's not on you.

Don't be too hard on yourself.


This can probably be grouped with the "poor advice in this thread"


This is not good advice. As a manager you represent the company to your reports. To say it isn’t your decision is not helpful.

If it wasn’t your decision, it tells me that you are impotent and don’t have the pull to get me the compensation I want and I still leave.

Even if it was your decision, I would still leave. Whether it was your decision or not is meaningless to me.


How's this advice good?


Totally agree that generally speaking no one is breaking high complexity passwords. Why break the password when you can just convince someone to change it for you?


Easiest way is just to put up a fake service and they’ll give you their real password (same one they use everywhere). I can do this in a day and get thousands of real passwords and emails if I wanted to.


Researched this recently and came across this which appears to be the best solution in the field currently, though price prohibitive. http://solarips.com/power-tower/


Wonder how pricing compares with http://www.jouleboxpower.com/. The batteries seem to be the large cost in these energy storage solutions. Removing them and using hydrogen in propane tanks may reduce costs significantly.


Those are really neat, thanks for sharing!


Give me a civilizations inventory and transaction log and I'll show you their economy, and society.


I would safely assume the government does collect all ticket purchase data in real time.


They at least see it near the time of travel. See https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/documents/apis_facts...


Might seem crazy but there was a huge effort around repurposing these weapons for construction. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Plowshare


It should sound like that, but unfortunately the point they are making is true.


I felt the regulation text itself was clear that the first request is free.

"1 - The controller shall provide a copy of the personal data undergoing processing. 2- For any further copies requested by the data subject, the controller may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs."

The ICO says that the fee must be based on the administrative cost of providing the information which seems consistent.

Since you're allowed to respond to the first request with a list of the types of information you control, you should be able to do this without a search (and without undue costs).
