Indeed, Trump is a "Kennedy" Democrat. Post-mod DemoRat leadership has moved so far Dadaist-left that thoughtful pork-chop (de)mocrats have jumped ship. Now, call us MAGA for upholding a Western/nationalist cultural meme ( Kennedy/Buchanan/Perot/Moynahan/Trump/Manchan ...) . If the Bush family neo-cons succeed in retaking Republican leadership we will drop them like a rabid pig.

In return for the United States providing a safe haven for Flock ( and other companies ) , Flock preferentially hires USA citizens for their workforce, It's called the social contract ( or hemlock-cup for the Randists ). Pork-chop eating workers allow caviar-noshing C-Suites and investors. You say otherwise ?

Why is this labeled "flame bait". Engineers build ... MBAs destroy. It's absolutely true. Must be a sect/nest/cult of MBAs hovering about /. ( or Chi.com disinformation agents ) to destroy any useful insights presented. Or mebby stooges for slimy big-4 consulting companies ...

This is the beta build.

Exactly. Problems like this should be discovered long before a Beta release. This isn't some kind of esoteric corner case.

So it IS the QA/QC testing.

Translation: Microsoft has outsourced its QA to volunteers.

Critical thinking and left-wing politics do not mix. The core fundamentals of left wing politics are envy, government-owned monopolies and a blind historically unjustified faith in authority; Trotsky Lenin and Stalin knew this and acted accordingly. It's endemic among primitive tribes and "effete" parasitic non-producers. The self-organizing natural order with some people at the top, some people in the middle and some people in the bottom is a feature of (re)publican market cultures. This ansatz has long-lasting benefits both in physical wealth and social structures such as trade, technology and marriage .

That's been done by Frank Herbert as well, in Destination: Void. Not a great book though.

"the social and historical circumstances of the people southwest of the Ural mountains in the 15th century", OTContrary. Ace those courses ( + a language) and 3-letter-agencies will come knocking at your door. My senior year ( many many decades ago ) I happened to grab a library copy of Herman Khans "On Thermonuclear War" --- the kind of book physics majors at a liberal arts college might find interesting. Three months later , bet you can't guess who wrote themselves into my list of employment interviewers ! I chose grad school & academia instead, but figure "they" watched.

You conflate schooling with learning. Of-course schooling ( MS/PhD ) might lead to learning ... but solving all the problems in J.D. Jacksons' "Electrodynamics" , Landau & Lifshitz "Statistical Physics" & Goldsteins "Classical Mechanics" while raising chickens and living in an off-grid cabin will most-certainly shape your intellect ! Just scavenge a slide-rule and leave the F*-A computer/internet turned off.
