When you think that the Norman successors still own the vast majority of England to this day, cramming the Anglo-Saxons into rabbit hutches on high density estates, very.
Based on what - that some of the aristocracy have French/Norman sounding names? A lot don't.
Nearly a thousand years of interbreeding insures that the genes have been well and truly intermixed by now. I have no idea if my ancestors were orginally saxon, norman or something else. And I expect that it true of 99% of other people in the UK.
Surely the alternative would have been that land being owned the Anglo-Danish elite installed by Cnut a few decades earlier, or perhaps a newly installed Norwegian elite had Harold lost at Stamford Bridge.
Britain's ownership inequality is probably more a result of the tradition of primogeniture where aristocratic land holdings remained concentrated whereas in France they were subdivided on inheritance.
I blame Britain's tiny homes on our early industrialisation creating terraced houses which have subsequently been difficult to redevelop at higher density. Other countries seem to have skipped that and instead built tenements that eventually turned into flats at a much higher floor area per land area.
My guess is that the current administration has deleted all internal data from the CIA World Factbook to prevent any attempt to revive it in future. Would be amazing if the next US administration were to use this archived data to rebuild it.
In the EU countries with local instant bank payments schemes they are much more popular with consumers than credit cards when paying attrusted merchants, who in turn pay around a quarter in fees of what they'd have to pay for cards. No need for expensive credit cards schemes in Europe any more.
Key part of what you wrote: "as to the identity and location of aliens" - so whatever claim they have to access health information applies to aliens. The big question is: are they harvesting citizens' health records illegally as part of this effort, and if so, when do those responsible see jail time?
They're unsure because a lot depends on the legal status of children born to non-citizen parents in the US after a executive order tried to revoke birthright citizenship: https://www.bmj.com/content/390/bmj.r1538
If that EO was legal, then sharing the data is, too. If it wasn't, then it's probably a privacy violation, but the CMS isn't allowed to make that call themselves, they have to rely on court decisions for it. And challenging EOs is not trivial.
Not sure what to see in mid term. American people chose Trump, knowing he’s corrupted. They will do so again and again.
The only thing may led to their hesitation is trump and allies are so incompetent that they can’t even pretend the economy is ok, for which I think we are not there yet.
I would add the nuance that the possibility of controlled migration from one versioned API to another should be right from day one, not necessarily the first API version.
I believe that means you are more or less setting yourself up as a payment facilitator, meaning you and your other merchants will be kicked off Stripe at any time if too many of your merchants misbehave. Is your compliance team ready for that?
