  Ref: Bryan Cantrill, speaking of Larry Ellison, in the context of working for Oracle after Sun got acquired: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc It's a hilarious rant, starting at 34:00, and the specific quote around 38:35.

    Protip: you can link directly to a specific timepoint in a YouTube video with the &t= (or #t=) parameter, measured in seconds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc&t=2060s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc&t=2060s

      Tenured professor tip: you don't need to convert to seconds, you can use: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc&t=38m35s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc&t=38m35s

        Sure, but you get seconds if you right click the time control and select "copy video URL current time" :)

  > . To that end, it makes no sense to either love or be angry at “Google” I do love the weird qualifier of 'to that end'. Would love to see a follow up in 6-12 months when the culture's flavor-aid is cleared out of their system.
