That kind of attitude disgusts me. Like it's someone else's job to have a sense of accountability. They would not remain employed in my company. When I developed software I would jump right on top of any bug reports immediately,

Am curious, how have the shade balls been working out in terms of maintenance, coating wear, leeched microplastics, containment (so they don't wind up in oceans), etc? In retrospect, did it make sense compared to the $250M or so uplif
