I think its easy to dislike a movie that you're angry at. I really like this movie, and I'm sure that's a large part of why I was able to engage with it. Kind of a commentary on politics and society too, eh?

Spoilers-ish (this happens pretty early in the movie) Janelle Monae smashes open a mystery box with a hammer, which is direct commentary on JJ Abrams Mystery Box writing. This movie is very very well written. Nearly every detail is paid off

I just reworked some java code that is deployed INSIDE an oracle database. You can load java classes into oracle and use them like functions. So I would say: find the most obscure place you can deploy code, and make sure it is not testable.

I think about a parallel in juggling - It's not the catches, it's the throws. To a bystander, it's very impressive that you can catch all the balls; but if your throws are bad, it's impossible to catch them - the pattern

This fits with my experience; I would include the following: What do the developers have to learn? New technology? New business domain? Are there new system interconnections? How many? How involved is the 'customer'? Who is the &#

I've used AIX, HP-UX, OEL (Oracle Enterprise Linux) and RHEL. Probably some other distros. We use it because there's a support contract and that sort of thinking is surprisingly durable. Also because it costs money to migrate.

Oracle offers some integrations that are not found in other DBMS products. If a software product uses those integrations it may be difficult to migrate. Bear in mind that DB code is often not unit tested or integration tested outside of man

Mmmm plastic lungs! To be clear I find this absolutely horrifying. As someone with chronic respiratory limitations, it is distressing to see people damage themselves this way. It is their right, but you can't make me like it. My aunt s

Remember it? Yes. I use a UI with the option to cancel a workflow and when you select 'cancel' it comes up with a modal 'ok' or 'cancel'. Does cancel cancel the cancel? Or is it ok to cancel? WE CAN USE MORE TH

In science fiction they were talking about nuclear powered trains. Its kind of a shame that never happened. Alas, the real world is more complicated than our beautiful stories. Also, in a way, there are nuclear powered trains, just the powe

Theranos isn't a failure, they just haven't achieved their goal yet. You can read this any way you want. I do think that Theranos (or another company) may eventually achieve part of the vision of Theranos. Same for FSD.

I live next to some urban Beavers. I really wonder about their genetics. Like do some of them leave to find another family to join? How do they do that in the city? Or are they genetically stable? Or is this family going to die out after a
