Comment Re: Beware the salt, but tastes OK (Score 0) 245

As with most meat-alikes itâ(TM)s not actually requested by us veggies, but does allow us to easier join fast food friends. IMHO itâ(TM)s a great way of getting all an opportunity to reduce their meat intake as much needed (for climate and health). The sooner the better because it could end up being mandatory in order to reduce emissions.

Comment Never forget; itâ(TM)s also a people problem (Score 1) 220

Even if embedded there are coworkers, project/process people and users. All system interacts with the human world so there are always expectations, written or otherwise. Accept that the value produced by your code is linked to this messiness and try to bridge the gap. Not only do they need your help to solve their problems, they often also need you to help them define their problems (and will often not even like you doing so).

But, there IS trust. Implicit trust in that the miners donâ(TM)t have an agenda (or at least one that includes your transaction). And worse, you donâ(TM)t know who you are trusting and the âtargetâ of that trust changes with each transaction. To me this seems a bit naive, hoping that a crowd will balance out the egoism of the individuals but also knowing that power and control tend to centralise and corrupt.
