Talking Europe hosts Georgia’s fifth president, who maintains that she is still the legitimate holder of that post, despite the swearing-in of a new president on December 29th. Salomé Zourabichvili explains why she believes that the inauguration of Mikheil Kavelashvili was illegitimate, and why Georgia is facing such a stark choice of either going back into the Kremlin’s orbit or pursuing its western path and accession process to join the European Union.

They mention the trade deals that the UK will have all over the world as a benefit yet they ignore that you need something like 7 US trade deals to make up for the loss in EU trade and the UK already had trade deals with most of the rest of the world through the EU, so the potential upside in a new deal is rather small.

But the telegraph supported brexit so I'm not surprised.

That's hardly a benefit of brexit though, is it? Educated people from India, or elsewhere were always welcome. From what I gather the largest surge right now is from dependants. The educated Indian will bring his family, while the educated (of not) German would not.

Yeah, why are people so ready to believe obvious lies without doing even a basic amount of research into the topic? Curious, isn't it.

Someone said to me a long time ago that if someone tells you something that you agree with, you should do your best to disprove this, to yourself. I think that's a good start, and possibly a way to break out of your own filter bubble.

By not testing it properly before running it over the whole file system resulting in a few hours of extra work cleaning up the mess I made.

Very true. I used to do magic with xargs when working as a sysadm. Also a good way to mess up on a grand scale. Ask me how I know.

That's weird, I didn't see a single ad. Stock Brave.

I'm not against fishing, but there's something wrong if you take fish and then just turn it into fertilizer or chicken feed. Good on the UK for banning this.

France is nice, but if you have friends or family in Britain...
