"Point us to an post about a guy given a job he is clearly unqualified"

That's literally my point -- the post isn't about the person in charge of the ministry! It's about them testing Collabora and the users just having too many issues with it. I guarantee if it was the same exact story and the minister had a male name none of you would have done this deep dive and criticism.

And why do you think she is unqualified? The Minister of Digitization doesn't need to be an expert on digitization, they need to be competent at high-level management and understanding how laws and policies work. Did she do something wrong? Would someone else have somehow convinced the 37 or however many employees who tested it not to hate it?

"And the UK handed you the brand new computer industry on a plate by destroying all the computers it had built during the war while not requiring that you do the same with the licensed copies you had built."

The UK decided to destroy its computers on its own, don't blame us for your idiocy. "Require"? What were you going to "require" we do? And how were you going to enforce this "requirement"?

And what licensed copies are you talking about? Britain shared the Bombe (which was basically an upgraded version of the one the Polish built, but of course Brits insist they're the geniuses who broke Enigma), but ENIAC was a US production.

The problem with Axon cameras is that they have off buttons. The person who that camera is recording most - ie the person WEARING the camera - should NOT be able to turn off that camera, at most they should be able to mark up to 90 seconds of upcoming footage at a time as private for bathroom visits (they can press it again every minute or so, and if they end up lying about it and using it to do something illegal, the footage can still be reviewed later.)

Axon cameras are mostly useless because of all the nefarious things they DON'T catch their wearers doing because their wearers can just press a button and turn the useless things off. They were supposed to be there to protect the public, but law enforcement easily can and do abuse their power to turn them off all the time, and we have no way of knowing what goes on when those cameras go off.
