Simon jests, but the last ~15 years of life in the UK have felt like a constant degradation in the quality of living. I used to enjoy cheap gas to heat my home; now I don’t. I used to be able to drop off someone at the airport, now I have to pay £5 to do so. And so on.

@Maggiolone85 They just claim they don’t want kids as a filter, a negotiation. If you reply “me neither” then you’ve failed. If you say “what about one or two?” you’ve failed. The only right answer is “shame, I’m aiming for ten kids” - that gets their attention.

@IronEconomist This thread has some discussion of the pros & cons of being oldest in the class. TLDR: being oldest is awesome, and the effect compounds every year; but parents do have to pay for an extra 11 months of pre-school childcare.

@lukas_ohl The advantages run very deep: they're most apparent in sport and I think most commonly studied there, but it's also observed in school gifted and talented programmes, Oxford Uni graduations, Nobel Prizes, as well as political and business leadership.

@STLD98 @Rule3O3 @eigenrobot No, only some forces dropped the degree requirement. In those forces, without a degree, you need to spend 1yr as a PCSO first; then three years as an apprentice; at the end of which, you have to write a 10,000 word dissertation. All this changes the people who choose to apply.

@DanNeidle Dan, do you think senior HMRC case-workers and/or managers in complex cases like these should have performance-related pay, or possibly even revenue-sharing? So HMRC collects £14m, case-worker takes home 1% = £140k bonus (for example). Private sector often does this. Thoughts?
