spot on and i love the language used to describe most large organizations. the problem you describe can't really get away with in it smaller teams less than 10 or 5. one of my friends, I call him Tony E. talked a lot like you write. we worked for a few years together, and another Andrew F., both different, both great... we had a few others and they were idiots and we fired them... kicked them to a state job or something more their sped.... one thing about your style, i hope this is active-pre-aggressive not passive aggressive communication. more importantly, keep up the great work. need more attitudes and thinkers and believers like you. happy new year 2019.
so true. there have been other carriers with 24 hours of outages that affected 911 calls, but no one cried foul then, or maybe we did not hear about the FCC investigating those.. either way.. Ajit is a tool and I wish he would share his end game so we can see if he is being honest with all of us.
three things that capitalist control greatly - 1) food, 2) shelter, 3) medical
if we can in my lifetime get both of those free, food is free reduces lots of problems, and no rent or mortgage reduces other problems, and no worries about getting ill and getting help...
free up our minds and energies for what good we can do... imagine.. in 50 years, we have that achieved...
now i don't mind paying for fair wear and tear of stuff, utilities above basic needs, but what if... those three were no longer controlled by capitalist who "capitalize on others" being those who want to remain "NOT" hungry, homeless, and sick.
think. think. think. find the formula and equation that works and capitalists can move on to other things... the Internet has leveled the educational problem.. 24x7 library.... for those who wish to learn... the formal degree is no longer required to be successful...
more to come..
i just wish apple or microsoft would fix the error 2503 bug that keeps coming back again and again when install apps related to iTunes and plugging in iPhones into Windows 10.. crazy relationship there.. let the bug fest continue...until Windows does not let iTunes install anymore with both 32 and 64 bit drivers simultaneously.
uh, yeah. i have worked many of C-Level lately and uh, yeah. sadly, let them die and pull the plug. monkey wards went away a long time ago too. next? JC Penney is next, and a bunch of others that should just go away. want the list? i have the shortened version.
i wonder if the radical right and radical left really control the US agenda in terms of a voice of reason. i recall suppression of all things nude lasted forever whereas the body nude in Europe is not nude at all -- it's call relaxing on the beach.
that was an undocumented feature and by design. i see that all the time. its just gets reclassified as a bug when other eyes notice it and raise it as a bug.
no biggee. i did that once accidentally on a team level review communication (a Microsoft bug in Excel OLE) and then realized it certainly did settle down what they already knew. who gets paid what for who does the work, and those that just show up and get paid.. paid for performance, not seniority... i could not fire someone directly because of HR and their stupid rules of rehabilitation due to poor performance, at first I thought.. oh my.. but then I realized, well, it just shows my good judgement.. there. now would everyone shut up and realize, you get paid for what you do... i just proved it... if you don't like it... go get a different job...
and here I thought Paul Lutus was a pioneer with Apple Writer - just kidding Paul --;-) your deal with Apple with 25% royalty was genius and a killer to Apple.

exactly. it's not exactly the first time we have seen gross malfeasance in government and we can't do anything other than just live with it and hope that someone who can do something about it who has control and not above their own laws will do something to help. i just ask our congress people to politely just fix everything and keep greedy individuals out of government and in places of leadership. i don't mind a fair profit, but look at some of the greedy MOFOs..
exactly. when was the last time the government moved quickly to halt and resolve Wells Fargo gross malfeasance for the 2008 mortgage crisis. Wells Fargo should have just gone around and helped fix everyone's mortgage and stand to make not 50% profit and instead take 20-25%. greed is the root of all evil we experience everywhere.
i know in our region, pesticides were massively reduced parks in the last 10 years, and nature has a way of stabilizing. my previous home owners used some bug company to spray the whole yard and I realized it was harmful to nature. Prior to, i did not see a single butterfly for 5 years, and afterwards, then suddenly 2, 5, 10, 20....per month.. now I see about 10-15 per week..
let's dream a little and see what AI and machine learning can come up with -- let's do the Fifth Element approach, get to 70,000 feet above the Earth, proceed to reach orbit, and then sling shot to the moon as quickly as possible; 48-96 hours later; take a few loops around the moon, then set down.. just make sure we hookup with the orbital viewing deck the size of the British Airways Platinum Lounge in London at Heathrow, pre-assembled in space and ready for travelers to board and dock with and come along in tow and enjoy the trip. Inertia of a large object in space at 30,000 feet per second or more..
I was tweeting to Walt Mossberg about the trip to Mars and said in our lifetime we should be living on the Moon; a journey to the Moon, stay for a weekend and enjoy it..and then return home... now that would be worth my Marriott Rewards points!
all i can say is NOPE NADA NOT NEEDED to all your statements. there is a simpler way to give a great customer experience and keep them confidentially staying at your hotel, motel. i do like the fact you laid out the obvious for a systems analyst to ask a client how they want to make a great customer experience.. remember.. you can get to your ends by other means without all that stored data..
front desk employee -- customer unique identifier, start, end, and the front desk doesn't even need to know room #
that could be received from a 2nd party and keep the front desk from privacy violations from another 3rd party..
make it very hard for a 3rd and 4th party to get all your data from one place....
TGIF
we have all seen this.... working on a project and the found that the developer stored customer data in the clear in flat files including social security numbers, credit card numbers, even worse on a public facing server and directory and more.. i was shocked and told the client.. what an idiot. for goodness sake folks any kind of obfuscation is recommended.. any will be better than data in the clear
i had to get the owners of another project to explain to me why the DOB had to be collected and they wanted to know their age.. i said, then say "age" like 35, 50, 18, etc... you are going throwing a birthday party for this member or sending them a birthday card... come on folks...
and passwords are a thing of the past for me some 10 years ago.. don't store and save anything other than their email address and call it good.. don't even store what they did.. just make catch their email to send them a receipt....and even then you don't need that.. but something to help them.. know their product/service is on its way or still a member.. that's it..
done.. anyone else want to add...

yep.
yep. NN 4.5 vs. IE 3/4 -- IE was a big fat pig and won for the time being.
i checked out the link of the stellarium website and product. very cool. any others like this?
well said. i believe your opinion is popular among those with common sense and knowing which battles to pick and fight.
that was an undocumented feature and by design. i see that all the time. its just gets reclassified as a bug when other eyes notice it and raise it as a bug.
