LOL. I'd like to see your gun against a tank
You don't have a God given or constitutional right to own as large a motor vehicle as possible.
Driving a motor vehicle is a PRIVILEGE, not a right. And like all privileges, it can be revoked.
It's not called the People's Republic of California for nothing.
Nevertherless, it’s light years ahead of Textard
Why? I'm not trying to be argumentative, but different jobs have vastly different impacts.
30 years ago, I ran the IT for a small manufacturing company with 150 employees. One thing I did was to run the payroll and print the paycheques. A lot of techs actually earned more money than the president, thanks to overtime.
The US is hellbent on destroying public education, preventing higher education for as many citizens as possible and going as far backwards as possible
The bourgeois need hordes of semi-litterate drones that will happily buy whatever shit they sell, without asking questions, and employees that will do whatever they are told, without asking ethical questions.
Of course, only the bourgeois can afford the high-priced education needed to rise above the semi-educated masses for their offspring.
Calvinism.
The deeply-rooted calvinism that totally soaks WASP culture is the main reason for all ill social isses.
(Calvinists believe that the poor are without morals, because having no morals make them lazy, and the sacred duty of every calvinist is to punish the poor, because they have no morals).
Yankees are stupid. Their greed outsources production to China.
The Chinese are smart (their average IQ is the highest in the world), they gain experience manufacturing shit for the Yankees.
The US have only themselves to blame for their woes.
Whenever I did a website, I did my own thing. And when I was maintaining one such website, one day, I see strange garbage strewn accross my PHP code.
Turns out the server had been compromised, and every file was injected with malicious code, but only if it was part of a Wordpress website
Because of this, the web hoster yanked every Wordpress website from his server, except mine, which, despite being riddled with malware, did not do anything harmful because the malicious code was never called by Wordpress
That definitely cured any idea I might subsequently have about using a CMS
Our scrums were done via conference call, but they made us stand up anyway.
:-)
You know what, that's a great idea. I may implement it for my team, because our meetings are tending to last too long.
My parents have found the perfect way to make sure condo board meetings don’t last more than they need to: they hold them in the parking garage.
The managers realize they have become irrelevant as employees become more productive without managers' constant meddling.
A truly incompetent manager is unable to measure the work done without having his cattle toiling in front of his eyes.
Also, other alpine people have developed a form of whistling to communicate like yodelers do.
