There are only two hard things in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors
The secret of how to be miserable is to constantly expect things are going to happen the way that they are "supposed" to happen.
You can have faith, which carries the understanding that you may be disappointed. Then there's being a willfully-blind idiot, which virtually guarantees it.
No more Blub for me, thank you, Vicar.

It is a very long time since I was a union rep, and I have forgotten most of what I knew. Employment law is much stricter here, but if you create a hostile environment by doing something outside work, the Tribunals would most probably regard that as grounds for fair dismissal. You could also call it adversely affecting the productivity of colleagues.Tim Holloway wrote:. . . "creating an hostile work environment" . . .

The h is loudly aspirated at the beginning of many words, which all have one thing in common. They are not found under H in the dictionary, but AEIOU.An ostile envir'ment

For instance: In 'spaghetti', the g is pronounced like 'get', while in 'Genova' it's pronounced like 'jet'. The same applies to 'chi', which is pronounced 'key', while 'ci' is pronounced like 'chief'.
Hmm actually now I see where the confusion comes from. In English, for the consonant 'c', the 'h' is used to modify it exactly the opposite way.
