I agree, all hail Debian!

Yeah which explains my hair in those days

Teenage? Most of the girls were not teenage but much younger

Please tell me a single government service which is profitable... Isn't that the point of taxes and government services? Fbi, cia, fda, irs, cdc, dot, doe, library of congress aren't all of them not profitable?

I don't play AAA and I still run a 970...

Eh, I've slept with worse...

True. Years ago(I think 2010 ish) I went to NYC comic con. Zombies were all the rage (pun intended) at the time. One of the panels I saw was "preparing for a zombie apocalypse" with a bunch of people from walking dead and a director at the cdc.

The cdc director basically made the point that you should be prepared. A zombie apocalypse is not likely/possible but if that makes you actually get prepared for an emergency go for it. You need access to fresh water, access to edible food, any medications for you or your family, a plan to escape, a place to meet up etc etc. You need those in a zombie apocalypse but you also need them in a hurricane, tornado, war, earthquake etc. All require the same things to survive, if pretending it's zombies helps you get prepared great, as long as you get prepared.

If it makes you feel better at my last company I asked the "senior validation specialist" what the validation path would be for a program which incorporated unit tests.

The answer I got was "what's a unit test?"

What was the final result? Did you cancel the contract or re-write the whole thing?

True, all are good.

Sorry I used to do gross margin improvement and that just seems ripe for cost cutting. Spend 100K one time, save $75k every year.

Was the email atleast encrypted?

Yes... And the sequels? I still don't know if Xbox one s or x box one x is the higher end model....
