That Jeremy Vine, by necessity radio devil's advocate for tax avoidance sometimes, really is quite devilish in that regard. He's established himself as a 'production company', wifey's director and so on.
All legal and IMO he'd be a fool not to, but he really should be telling the listeners.

That's fairly standard practice for a lot people working in the media. Nearly everyone is freelance, companies are formed and dissolved often from project to project. We even had a music producer who was teaching at work, and he was the only member of staff employed by the college as a private contractor for years.

I spent the morning trying to figure out base64 strings in Python. Turns out base64 strings in Python are total crap. Add that to the fact that Python can't do arrays. I spent the afternoon doing it in c# instead.

Really? Two weeks in a rented cottage with your girlfriend, and you want to read a book?

Maybe Big_D's book is the new pop-up version of 50 Shades of Gray  so they will use it for inspiration
