We’re guessing. Everyone claims it’s all based on research and advanced modelling, but we really have no idea and and are bullshitting our way through presentations and press conferences.

We say whatever we can to keep our shareholders invested and the public buying. I’ll let you guess the industry, but you probably know.

I have worked for 5 different companies that needed to be PCI compliant and every one of them will fully decided not to do certain things. Not all of them were even hard, a lot of times it was simply the person making the decisions just didn't want too.

That non-trivial software development is really freaking hard, and incredibly expensive . And the majority of developers barely have any idea what they're actually doing.

The SLA on any product is not a guarantee the platform will be fixed in that timeframe. At best it is wishful thinking.

The bread you are given to at the restaurant is of often recycled from leftovers at previous tables.
