    How does payroll actually work

    Thanks, what about minimum wage, is that based on when work was done, rather than payment date? ie. if doing 50 yours in March, but paid in April is it still the 2025/26 minimum wage rate, even though it is paid in next tax year and after minimum wage rates change?

    Verifying you are not a robot on own sites

    Is there a way of knowing if my host has the reCaptcha on at global level and finding out if this is happening to all of my sites Like I said in OP, I only notice it doing this very rarely and only on sites I haven't visited for a while. I have no idea how often (if at all) it does it for...

    AI does have its uses

    I use an AI content generator plugin to create little blog posts. I don't trust what it automatically creates but edit it, add images, links to pages it is pushing then repost. I dare say there are better (paid for) plugins that can automatically automate everything, but I prefer doing it the...
