German jet aircraft of the War - fast but flakey, the engines had a very short lifespan due to the shortage of key metals.
British jet aircraft then - slower but more reliable.

what it is they put into the paper or plastic cups that sucks the flavour out of tea?
eg on a train, there's a Twinings Breakfast tea bag (a reasonable brand), you leave it in the cup for hours, fish it out with that wooden stick and it tastes of nothing. Sucking on the stick wihout paying £2 would have given more refreshment.
most blind trusts are about the recipient of the money not knowing where exactly the trust money is stashed, so the recipient would have to work backwards from any given company to find if they "owned" it. But the major point against your concern would be that the register is not intended for public viewing. (might not stop the odd newspaper but everything seems to leak somewhere)
A valid point, people think nothing of changing between escalators or lines on the tubes but put them in a vertical situation and they get funny about it. Does having to change lifts spoil the prestige of working on floor 205?
perhaps the engineering limits on lifts throws up the absurdity of commuting an extra third of a mile to get up to your office.
So the UK (as a whole) is paying HP to shift jobs around.
Presumably HP can do one of two things. Hire from the well-qualified tech staff available in Scotland - to replace those it had taken on under good employment terms (TUPE) in Sheffield - on a like for like basis. Or hire less-experienced and cheaper staff in the new locale.
Hmmm.....
He's getting high profile work in big films. Can do a serious turn in Sherlock every so often and take up other "proper" drama work on stage or the box.
or he could tie himself down to two or three years of admittedly regular employment which restricts his options and possibly leading to typecasting.
On the other hand it would be another instance of familial relations appearing in the programme for the fans to note. (his mum appearing in Image of the Fendahl a long while ago)
to give these people the benefit of the doubt, they have probably exhibited the symptoms - eg insular leading to lack of social life, obsessiveness etc - for a long while but its been put down to them being (stereotypically) more brains than social skills, or a bit odd.
It's only once they've been arrested for some alleged offence that they actually get examined by a trick-cyclist who marks them down as actually fitting into a pyschological category.
I can see why you're suspicious, is it a case that Aspergers etc end up doing these things or are the legal team looking for a mitigating defence that fits the image of their client.
Parallel vs serial
In typing on a physical keyboard with 2 to 10 fingers, you can just hold the shift key with one finger while you hit keys with the other(s).
On a virtual keyboard using one finger (phone), you toggle the shift - so its more caps lock - with your thumb and then tap the letter key.
With a case changing virtual keyboard - trivial to code if your design ethics don't get in the way? - you have a clear idea of whether caps are on or off.
You get your Pi and find that you're having difficulty getting it going.
use the Noobs and now you have a functioning system to tinker with. Perhaps later when you've got more idea what's going on, you'll get a fresh card and start again from scratch.
There's a reason some kit cars come pre-built for the owner. It's not because they aren't fun to drive.
Considering how many elements you can mix and match
sound - regular, hd, other language (Welsh, Gaelic, Urdu etc)
video - reduced resolution for mobile, regular, hd, 3D
text - subtitles, enhanced subtitles, programme notes, transcript, other language subtitles
additional video - signed for the deaf
" no market newcomer - especially one facing a dominant player like Amazon at a time of falling prices - had ever been sanctioned for anticompetitive practices"
Apple may have been the newcomer, but the other firms in the cabal weren't. Apple is just unlucky (or hubristic) that by the time it came to court, the others had already made (bought) peace with the authorities.
Its diplomacy - the Foreign secretary says one thing to their ambassador in private, another thing to the media in private, another to the House of Commons. Meanwhile the British ambassador says something else to their PM or FM in private and yet another thing to their media. Meanwhile a whole bunch of other things are said in the cabinet.
While I understand that archaeology looks better on film, as this allegedly occured within fairly recent memory wouldn't it be better to start with a search for documentation and/or interviewing former employees or the firm that carried out the exercise.
Or has this already been tried?
Not really, your eye is drawn to the gleaming mass of the body first, then follows it up the gentle curve of the spout until it reaches the incongrous absurdity of the whistle.
Neo-classical simplicity with a bell like affair that looks like it came off a French carriage clock. Are we sure they didn't big up the Adolf link to shift a ton of stock they'd over-ordered?
I shall refrain from using the f-word, and also thankfully supplying it in capitals.
He was unlucky on the call, but they say you make your own luck.
Perhaps if he'd focussed on his own efforts and less on the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune that went on around the game he might have done better.
Sudden thought: the picture gives no context for line orientation - for all I can tell that ball is definitely out rather than in.
