If the punishment for deliberately claiming more in benefits than you’re entitled to is simply to repay the benefits then there’s no incentive to not do it. If you get caught then you’re no worse off than if you’d not broken the law so why not do it?

Having said that, if the punishment for accidentally claiming more than you’re entitled to is so harsh then that is unfair.

I’d imagine that the process for both of the scenarios is the same but it definitely should have some human element in it where intent is taken into account.

The system should protect people from that by having proper checks before the money is paid out.

When the genocide is almost complete.

It’s ridiculous how we’re never saying that things have crossed the lines that have clearly been crossed.

They were on the brink of famine for months and I’m not sure that they ever declared one.

I know that the article is about the unanswered questions but I think that it’s a bit disrespectful (of the BBC) to her to use that photo as the lead.

There are new versions of C# every year.

Sorry…. rereading my post I realised that there should have been a /s on there.

I definitely don’t believe that the tarrifs were reciprocal despite that being the Trump message.

But they’re reciprocal tariffs, not unilateral. It’s like nobody listens.

I imagine that it depends upon whether the agreement allows for outsourcing or not.

It’s taking the piss out of Andrew Tate and the gullible guys that he’s convinced are superior to women.

But your users have the problem that they go to the wrong site if someone on a mobile device shares a link when you’re on desktop.

It just seems inconsistent for them to detect mobile devices but not desktop devices.

They already do this to redirect from the desktop view to the mobile view so they could do it the other way but don’t for some reason.

If a user changes their user agent to something that would cause a site to not be able to determine whether they are on desktop or mobile then they can expect that some sites aren’t going to work well.

It would be better to handle it by detecting what device you’re on rather than having encoded into the url. That way it wouldn’t matter what device the page was shared from.

Yes, I did miss that bit, sorry.

For instance you can monitor when the compressor shuts off and use the plug to shut off the entire unit, then power it on when the room temperature rises to a set point.

That seems like you’re just replicating what the AC’s thermostat is doing. You’d only be saving the stand by power which doesn’t seem like it’ll be a huge saving to me.

“No free speech, no deal. It is as simple as that,”

So he’s going to push this condition onto everyone that they deal with right? Saudi Arabia and Israel for example.

It’s your responsibility to manage your finances, not theirs. It’s bullshit that they’d even consider any method of processing payments other than first come, first served.

I used to be a contractor and was sometimes bad at processing timesheets and invoices.

I had one occasion where I had (numbers made up because it was ages ago) £100 in the business bank account with no overdraft facility when a £150 payment went out.

The payment went out putting me overdrawn. They waited a day before deciding that I wasn’t allowed an overdraft and putting the money back.

During that 24 hour period a payment for £25 was processed and blocked because I was overdrawn.

They then charged me two fees for refusing the payments even though I had money for the second one in the bank.

I switched banks right after that.

They’re currently getting the help to look under sofa cushions to raise the money.

Not only that rule. Also the specific rule that they agreed to which was to respect Ukraine’s sovereignty if they gave up their nukes.
