American Spectator, so probably H.L. Mencken wrote that.

He also wrote this: “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want and deserve to get it good and hard.”

This was posted earlier. Just because they’re not going to give it to authorities doesn’t mean it won’t sell it to them. Or that it isn’t selling it to everybody else already. The other thread mentions that iOS natively has an app that’s completely private, and that there are apps for android and iOS that don’t share the data with anybody.

One of my bosses has a concept of “T-shaped developers”, which means you know everything a little, and have depth on one thing.

7months: ouch, sorry to hear. I wish I had some words of wisdom to share.

It works great if nobody ever leaves or dies or takes vacation. We try to discourage siloization of projects and emphasize cross-training - it makes the job more interesting, gives people more/better tools to solve problems with, etc. And anytime the business objects we mention the project where X left and how painful it is to get new anything added/enhanced because none of those tenets were involved.

However, all bets are off with offshore contractors. Some want to learn, some simply don’t care and will do the bare minimum.

Depending, it could be your freezer, if you’re storing it there for a bit.

My mother in law has a book about “Woke Jesus”, and I know some churches have had issues because the parishioners think Jesus was a wuss.

All good, I just had never thought of that, it’s cool!

Never seen a target like that before. That’s cool,what’s it made of?

What the hell did I just waste 30 seconds of my life on?

I’m sure there will be some fun “huh, odd, all the votes for X went to Y” if it happens.

Ironically, I could see that being the catalyst for ranked choice voting.

That was short and fun.

But if they’re having to manually edit 700 of 1000 orders, then it’s like saying “self driving but we have someone take over every 5 minutes”. Which is extremely misleading when they say “it’s AI!!!”

It’s a great big universe
And we’re all really puny
We’re just tiny little specks
About the size of Mickey Rooney
It’s big and black and inky
And we are small and dinky
It’s a big universe, and we’re not!

Look at the polls - 49% ARE the faithful
