Thread | The sinking megacity
by StokieBlue at 11:21 15 Oct 2019
A good (but long) read about Jakarta and how it could be the first "megacity" claimed by climate change:
https://www.wired.co.uk/article/jakarta-sinking
It's essentially a catalogue of errors in both infrastructure snd bureaucracy coupled with the rising sea level from climate change. There is serious talk about having to build a new capital and relocate 30m people at some point in the future - the numbers are simply huge.

Thread | Big up to Tyrone Mings
by chicoazul at 09:30 15 Oct 2019
Takes big balls to do that in your first international match. His comments about being a voice for the voiceless are powerful and excellent. I hope he has a long successful England career, and becomes Prime Minister in 20 years or so. |

Badly designed websites are quite fun to stumble across from time to time and I am sure some will be familiar with this example.

Amazingly chaotic, and a great use of Boris Johnson holding a sign saying "Brexit Risk Free".
The real hidden gem of this website is the source code. Ctrl+U and a short scroll down will reveal the sheer magic of why this badly designed website, is actually quite brilliant. |

Thread | The Bulgarian manager is actually deluded..
by chrisswailes at 06:20 15 Oct 2019
Bulgaria coach Krasimir Balakov 'didn't hear' racist abuse in England loss https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50050684
‘Bulgaria captain Ivelin Popov had been seen talking to a group of Bulgaria supporters at half-time, prompting England striker Marcus Rashford to praise his "courage".
Balakov says he was unaware Popov spoke to some fans at half-time, adding: "It is probably because the fans were unhappy with the way the team was performing." ‘ |

Thread | Observation about tonight...
by Marshalls_Mullet at 22:33 14 Oct 2019
When talking about the abhorrent behaviour of some football fans in Bulgaria, a lot of people on twitter etc write off the whole nation (and even eastern Europe as a whole) as racists.
Slightly hypocritical!
(I'm not aiming this as TWTD).
Yes, the behaviour tonight, and on other occasions was disgusting, but that doesnt mean it's representative of a whole nation. |

Thread | Frustrating game
by Dubtractor at 21:31 14 Oct 2019
We should have got double figures based on the chances and attacking opportunities we've had.
Bulgaria are one of the worst international teams I've seen in years. Perhaps they have been more effected by the chants than we have? |

I thought Bulgaria were at least a half-decent team. But not on the evidence of tonight. Maybe i'm thinking three or four decades ago. |

Thread | Calling all Excel bods
by Rob88 at 20:53 14 Oct 2019
I would like to create a macro that would import my bank statements into excel from csv files and format by bank statements and then update pivot charts.
csv files would be in a folder on the c drive.
Where does one start?
I’ve tried the available budgeting apps such as Emma, money dashboard and YOlT but they don’t report as I would like. |
