Early opinions of OnePlus 2 Danny?
I quite like it, however;
the fingerprint scanner is a bit finicky.
One initial setup, it was waiting AGES to connect to the network, I skipped it and it had already connected.
It seems delicate
The USB-C charger means I need to care for this power cable and buy a few spares for laptop charging etc.People say I should be more humble I hope they understand, they don't listen when you mumble

1996-2007 John Howard as PM

2009 Malcolm Turnbull ousted as liberal leader by Tony Abbott
2010 PM Kevin Rudd ousted by Julia Gillard (His deputy)
2012 PM Julia Gillard challenged by Kevin Rudd (Rudd defeated)
2013 PM Julia Gillard ousted by Kevin Rudd
2013 Tony Abbott wins election
2015 Feb - Liberal Party leadership spill (defeated)
2015 Sep - PM Tony Abbott challenged by Malcolm Turnbull
So the last person to serve a full term was elected in 1996.

If he wants, he can take half of it as a lump sum of $1.53 million and take the rest as an annual pension worth $153,771.
If previous prime ministers are any guide, he'll also receive other entitlements. Kevin Rudd, Julia Gillard and John Howard each receive an extra $300,000 a year with which to maintain a staffed office, plus travel costs.

So for first bill, @IrishWater refused to give figures. Now they're giving updates the moment they pass 50% mark. Forgive my skepticism.

iSnow - You make it in the end?
We were up in plenty of time but a last minute bout of manflu meant I had zero tolerance for any other speaker other than Jordan. I got the feeling that the whole thing was an extended pyramid marketing scheme and although I was grateful for the free ticket, after about Noon, I couldn't listen to anymore shite so hit the pub.
I've got a friend who is a successful motivational speaker based in Malta who's raking it in.
He often posts on FB from conferences around the world and definitely seems to be on to something. He has no car and rents his apartment which is enough to tell me it's all a pile of nonsense. I got him drunk one night and he told me that about 1% of clients take up his call-to-action so he has to adjust his marketing campaigns accordingly. He charges €5K per day to tell you to cop yourself on. Occasionally he'll call you a cunt if you're lucky.
Jordan seemed to contradict himself quite a bit and although the talk was enjoyable I get the feeling that it was all just hot air. Eg. Spoke about ethics and how he could have made billions but defended his business strategy claiming that only 5% of what he was doing was illegal..
Also when he mentioned that great wealth took alot of hard work this contradicted some of his earlier stuff from Youtube which claimed it was easy.
I took a few things away with me regarding building a business and how it became easier as the company had grown to a certain size. This was seconded by my mate who is 27 and employs 24 people. He told me it was more difficult operationally at the start but pretty much runs itself now.
Worth it? I wouldn't have been too pissed off paying €35 for a ticket but any more and I'd have been fuming.
You mentioned there were lots of signups for extended courses proving that a certain % of toolboxes will prove how gullible they are. Maybe we're in the wrong business?
What size blazer do you wear?

That pic just shows you how stuff can appear on the internet that people will believe without question.
Everest is 8km above mean sea level and the deepest ocean is 10 km below mean sea level. The diameter of the earth at mean sea level is around 12,700 km.
Comparatively the earth is smoother than a snooker ball.

Same with accountants at 98%. It's not that the profession won't exist, but rather that for every 100 accountants today, 2 will do the work of those 100 in 20 years with the assistance of automated processes.His rival it seems, had broken his dreams,By stealing the girl of his fancy.Her name was Magill, and she called herself Lil,But everyone knew her as Nancy.

Originally posted by elbows View PostI think where it is going is that most auditing will be automated with less and less number crunchers.Most transactions in large companies are already highly automated with less button pushers required."We are not Europeans.

On the creative flair thing, what does that mean? Watch from a little after the 11th minutes MsFlushdraw. It is an very interesting debate.

The more interesting question in the automation debate is what happens when we have mass unemployment through no fault of those people? Do the government have to pay a living wage? How would that work? Corporations are going to resist any attempts at them funding such a thing but ultimately it is the only way it works? What kind of s society would we have with so many people with so much free time?
