indeed.

They all talk about a living wage forgetting that if they raise the bottom to be that, all those on higher wages will either be forced into poverty and lose ground to inflation.

The problem is that the top earners get too much and housing is so expensive.

These consist of multiple HPC compute clusters (4000+ cores) and multi-Petabyte data storage systems.

I love it when someone spends millions on kit and then hands it over to a monkey paid peanuts to operate.
