Let's make sure to exclude the business people that make the health system more and more inhumane for workers and patients in search of ever growing profits.

I agree. I was more pointing out that the previous comment stated that we basically have a choice of 10x more Musks and no homeless people or equality with lots of homelessness. I think there is zero evidence that increasing the number of r

" I would rather live in a world with a 10x Musk and no homeless people than a more equal world like the current one but with no billionaires." Right now we live in a world with a growing number of super billionaires and we have t

When I read these leadership stories you never hear from the persons they led. Only from other "leaders" or consultants. I have been in enough presentations where leaders bragged about their achievements but I knew that reality wa

When I look at the Ukraine situation I get very nervous thinking about having a large number of nuclear reactors spread out over a country. They would be perfect bombing targets and could contaminate wide areas.

I think a new policy wasn’t enacted because it would make the democrats look good.

“ it probably reflects a division in how the voting populace feels about the subject of such laws.” I don’t think that’s correct. There is way too much propaganda coming from the parties to think that voters have made up their minds based o

I bet a lot of “failed” companies could provide a nice steady income for a small team if they weren’t forced to grow fast.

It's a huge problem that when the opposition comes into power, they immediately try to revert and undermine what the previous party did. Not because of merit, but just because of partisanship. So you end up with a lot of programs that

That's the way it should be. Even the anti-tax people should be for this because it allows people to see what the IRS already knows. That would allow them to request changes as needed. I know people where the IRS had wrong 1099s and it

Reading a menu on a phone is just annoying. But paying through QR code works well. A restaurant near me had a system where the waiter brought you a check with a QR code. You scanned the QR code and could finish the payment online. Way bette

"Consolidating code is easy, pulling it apart is a lot harder." My experience is the opposite. The less code, the better. I just spent a week on refactoring UI automation test code where they had copied the same 30 lines of code i

What always amazes me is that they can get away with constant mistakes, overcharging and unjustified denials without any real consequences. The worst that can happen is that they have to correct the mistake and do what they should have don

The hail in Munich I wrote about above started like a normal thunderstorm until suddenly all hell broke loose. I cant imagine homeless people will get enough warning to get away.

Next size up from grapefruit according to ISO is small red cabbage, then small green cabbage followed by cantaloupe.

I wonder what this will do to car insurance costs. Sometime in the 90s we had monster hail in Munich and the damage to cars was in the billions. Years later you could still see cars that had tons of dents from that one day.

When you drive through California, Arizona, Utah and New Mexico it's surprising that not every house has solar plants and the deserts isn't full of large solar plants. If there ever has been an area that's perfect for solar,

The US definitely got very good at selling wars in the last decades. I remember being fascinated with the cool videos of "surgical strikes" against Iraq in 1991. Only later I read reports that a lot of the strikes weren't exa

I remember reading reports by a German UN weapons inspector. The CIA gave them a few of their bests leads but every time the inspectors went there they found nothing or equipment that hadn't been used in years. The CIA's response

This will be fun in the dark and ideally rain. Suddenly you see lights on your right side. Happened to me in Las Vegas, NV. There is an exit where you are suddenly on the left side of oncoming traffic. First time this happened I almost had

The museum makes a lot of sense. The new capital they are building seems a little crazier.

I was there in 2022 and was told it would open in a month. Glad it's finally open. The original Egyptian Museum has a ton of artifacts but the presentation lacks seriously.

Plenty of people get offended if you tell them that their data isn’t really “big data”. A few years ago I had a discussion with one of my directors about a system IT had built for us with Hadoop, API gateways, multiple developers and hundre

"Most deals are successful under their management" Although often to the detriment of customers as I have seen with several vets and my former dentist. Prices suddenly doubled and tripled or even more.

My waterpik has solved pretty much all of my gum problems. I have one attached to my shower which is very convenient. Highly recommended.

I have learned to embrace it. It seems over the years I have developed a pretty good intuition for when it’s time to get going. I have tried to be more proactive and do things early but usually it doesn’t work out.

I always find it interesting to see calls to mallow and free in C++ code. I don't recall using malloc/free in many years in C++. It's always new/delete.
