But a lot of us come from places where we all knew people that were disappeared, or were tortured.
Should we kept hoping, then?

A person with that profile is the typical patsy: unaware of the issues, unknowingly allowing criminal acts, and eventually sacrificed when accountability is required.

Nice BOOK. And the author says another book (not in that series) is coming this year.

A lot of people are showing their true colors now, with that orange lamp.

People do not know history, and all I can do is think about the Natives when encountering the Spaniards, having their knowledge destroyed, their health turned to myth, their beauty made a mockery.
This moment will hurt for generations.

It is difficult to wake up everyday and walk around, knowing that 60% of the people I interact voted for this.
I look at their faces and see no hint of remorse, no awareness of the pain they caused and the horrors they endorsed.

Another one that I have found in the wild: when users request a data ide installation, anything python is easy to search for, whereas R returns 100s of nonrelevant results, even if it is considered an option.

Industry in general - when we look for jobs, data scientist comes with python 99%, and I have seen ads with "R is tolerated". In that case, new DS will move to where they can get a paycheck.

So, they wrote about a book about the decline and the abetters of said disaster.
It has to be said, because had we had a competent person in the WW he or she could have prevented the horrible spectacle that we are living.

These are all playing musical chairs with billions of dollars, something that would make Madoff jealous.
Another empty promise, more billions, and earnings expectations pushed into the future.

In December, Nancy Pelosi intervened to keep AOC from getting the top spot on the oversight committee, and giving it to 74 year old Gerry Connolly, despite him having cancer.
Now, he's dead. Have the past 5 months been an important time for Congressional oversight?

Reminds me of that book by Lem, complete introductions to books that never existed.

Two global classes, those with AI and those without water.
They eventually converge into one globally resource deprived, but this Ai is the latest conspicuous consumption.

Disappointing that ordering directly from the publisher costs 200% that what costs ordering from Jeff's Emporium.

Their consultants are dreaming of The One App to rule them all.
It is just a money dance.

This is brutal. And delicious.

The first examples of supply chain complexity deal with scenarios like this, where delays in one part of the system cause huge intractable bottlenecks further down the line. Especially in these hyperoptimized industries.
The social and economic pain will last a while.

Oh, they have been completely both-sideing everything since 2016.
