Hierarchically related data

Hierarchically related data

We use hierarchically related data in our MDA and are trying to understand the deprecation notice here.

Will the checkbox for a self-referential relationship to be hierarchical go away? Or is it just the visualisation component?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. We use this heavily to understand related table rows and how they roll up to an ultimate parent.

Thanks!

Newborn Photography North London

My wife is looking for a newborn photographer that works in North London. We had an amazing experience with our first but unfortunately the photographer has moved away and understandably asking for a lot more to travel in.

We’re looking very much for the natural, relaxed aesthetic. Linens and cuddly browns is my best go at describing it.

For context, we’ve had a few quotes but many of them are £500+ with only a handful of digitals. Our previous photographer was similar price but 12-15 included. To make up the difference will double the price of the base package. We’re not able to afford that budget/workmanship.

Has anyone got any recommendations for photographers they’ve used that might better match our affordability?

I’m fed up of algorithms deciding what I like

I love taking breaks during a hectic day to escape into the digital world. Those breaks are getting ruined more and more by algorithms reducing that world to specific countries I’m allowed to visit. The internet used to be a place of discovery that opened the doors to new worlds and you have to discover that yourself on the outside and force an algorithm to let you enjoy content related to it.

I searched for some new running shoes. Now my instagram is endless running influencers and shoe reviews. I don’t mind some of it but it’s all I get to see.

I watched a couple of parenting videos on YouTube and now everything is parenting related. Last time was DIY and it went berserk with showing me how to build everything I don’t want.

My Reddit is currently fuelled with anything to do with copilot, Claude, or power apps because I was doing some research for work.

Every “discover” feature on every app is “see more of the same”.

What happened to the days of stumbleupon vibe but across all apps where you might have to skip through some random content but you could jump from food recipe to space, to a random hilarious video, to new music.
I want an experience where I can give everything and anything a go, and not liking what I see is absolutely fine but give me that choice.

I know this is nothing new. I know everyone moans about it. But it’s off my chest now.

Perspective shift to move the discussion on the £100k impact

Most public debate (this was actually prompted by an r/askuk post that saw the standard blowup around £100k being enough - usual discourse) around high marginal tax rates focuses on individual fairness or immediate state tax revenue. But there is a broader knock-on effect on local economics that gets overlooked when policy only looks at static income impact.

When PAYE earners in the £100k–£200k bracket hit 60%+ marginal tax rates, loss of tax-free childcare, and allowance tapering, the standard response, as per this sub, is now standardised to the point of obvious advice: heavy pension stuffing, salary sacrifice, paring back hours, or turning down promotions, or moaning about being HENRY.

My proposal to empathise with majority is that beyond the personal impact, this directly starves the hyper-local economy. Let’s be real, often our disposable income as a HENRY enables things like eating out, drinks, personal luxuries (massages). Sure we get to benefit from these but that’s not going to change anything. The empathy is towards who is actually impacted (it’s not us because those are all nice-to-haves), for local service businesses. It pays for tradespeople maintaining and improving housing stock, extra shifts for cleaners and childminders, spend at independent cafes and restaurants, and local UK breaks. When that cash gets squeezed, those local line items are the first to be reduced of even cut, stopping capital from circulating through sole traders and independent high-street businesses.

There is also a clear downstream ceiling effect on careers. When managers and directors actively avoid taking on larger responsibilities to dodge tax traps, team growth stalls. Turning down a step up means the role beneath never opens, junior promotions freeze, and the business stops expanding to create new entry-level jobs.
This is effectively a localized form of money velocity; actual liquid cash going directly to local plumbers, cleaners, and cafe owners. When that money turns over locally, the Treasury still collects down the line. The builder pays income tax, suppliers collect taxes on materials, and that income gets spent elsewhere in the community. High upfront tax stops the wheel from turning, whereas local circulation creates multiple smaller tax events across the economy.

If Burnham really wants to decentralise why not cut out the government middleman of collecting and distributing tax and actually allowing us to directly fuel the local economy. Our disposable becomes local low-to-mid earner incomes that likely gets spent locally too.

Bonus note that heavy tax friction on both sides also feeds the grey market. When marginal income tax is squeezed at the top and service VAT sits at 20%, the financial incentive for cash-in-hand work explodes. Keeping more discretionary cash moving through legitimate services shrinks that price gap, drawing untaxed work back onto the official books where direct taxes can actually be captured.

A/C installation recommendation North London

Looking for any recommendations for air2air AC installers in North London, ideally that support the BUS Grant.

We survived the heatwave on our two portable units but now looking for something more permanent.

I’ve tried googling but hard to know which reviews to trust so hoping someone here might be able to recommend based on experience.

Any indication of cost would be amazing. We’re in a ground floor flat, looking for split system across 3 rooms (2beds, 1 living)

Local bike shop near Crouch End

Hey. I’m looking for a local bike shop near Crouch End. I’ve tried Fixlosophy with good results for most repairs. I’ve also tried Fettle which was just too impersonal. Open to trying anywhere new.

Follow up question on whether anyone’s had any luck with a bike maintenance course in London? Looking for a full day workshop (ideally midweek) as I’m useless at following YouTube videos.
