. But hey, you believed it.

Where did I say I believed it? Learn to read, you ignoramus.

They have the power of "charity" to give what they don't have to build a city of gold in Rome.

Catholicism is Roman paganism dressed in Christian robes. Scratch that, the robes are actually Egyptian.
Modern Christians have more in common with Kipling's If Poem than with the teachings of Jesus. Occasionally one or two of them learn something about compassion from reading the bible, but they are quickly silenced.

Comment You still need a domain name (Score 1) 33

I would also consider allowing an option to blindly accept self-signed certificates on private IP ranges to encourage HTTPS for people too lazy to use Let's Encrypt or something like that

Does "too lazy" include no budget for a domain name before the proof of concept is complete? Let's Encrypt doesn't work unless you buy a domain name and keep it renewed. To satisfy a DNS-01 challenge, you need to host the domain's DNS at a provider with an API that an ACME client can use. To satisfy an HTTP-01 challenge, you need to be on an ISP that allows incoming connections on port 80. A lot of home ISPs block inbound port 80 because they use carrier-grade network address translation (CGNAT) or want to upsell business-class service or both. Nor does HTTP-01 work for wildcard certificates.

Comment Re:14k is a lot of dead meat in corporate layers.. (Score 1) 50

Apparently they have 350,000 workers in corporate, so firing 14k is about 4% of their total employees. Not a huge cut.

Things ran great for most part, management just wouldn't fire the slackers ! Brought in 5 supervisors aka "babysitters" who knew nothing about running the job.

If you are a manager, and hire five managers below you, then it increases your importance. The optimal strategy is to hire as many people as you can. If they are useless, that is a bonus (because then you have to hire more people to get the job done).
