  • Nobody actually has an answer to that because there is no answer to it.

    The system is so broken that there is no longer a way to fix it.

    Any processes that could be implemented that have the potential to fix the issues comes from a broken system.

    These processes would then be administered by the broken system.

    Therefore no matter how good the process is, it will end up broken.

    You may say that I am a hopeless person.

    You may say that I am wrong and there is obviously something that can be done that has not yet been done.

    I would say you are right, but experience indicates that although the possibility of reform exists, the capacity of the system to reform itself would be administered by a broken system.

    Therefore even reform will end up broken and fail.

    There was a reason why Nero played the fiddle while Rome burned. I’m just out here handing out rosin .


  • I could see a certain amount of time in prison, like a decade.

    Obviously this homicide was aggravated by the circumstance that the CEO was technically the administrator of.

    Therefore I feel like the punishment should be somewhat lenient given that the CEO inadvertently escalated the situation resulting in his own demise.

    Kind of like if somebody beats up your best friend and then you beat them up in retaliation, the punishment should be more lenient on you than it is on the original aggressor.





  • Honestly my dude. Lie.

    Find a job you’re interested in and then tell them that you have the experience needed to do that job. Make shit up if you have to. Get the job and then learn how to do it as you go.

    I’m probably going to get down voted for this. I don’t fucking care. It’s the truth. If you’re telling recruiters the absolute Rock solid truth then you’re giving them all of the cards and they are going to try to get you to underbid your abilities and skills but if you’ll put the effort in and just reach a little bit you’ll be fine.

    Like, I wouldn’t say apply to be a doctor when you don’t have a medical degree or anything but apply for that senior position when you only have a Junior’s skill. Go for executive vice administrator or senior associate programmer or sysdmin Ii or whatever the fuck is a step above your actual capabilities and then do your God damnedest to grow into the role in the first six to eight weeks of the job and more than likely you’ll be fine.

    Back in the day I did very similar and it has worked out swimmingly for me and I believe you’re a smart person and that you’re capable and that you can succeed if you’re given the opportunity and if you have to lie to get your foot in the door then fucking lie and go for it, and once they let you in turn that fucking lie into the goddamned truth.













  • Yeah, now it’s entirely reasonable to drop a human being from your friend pool for the rest of your life because of which person they voted for.

    If I find out somebody has voted for Trump they are now persona non grata to me.

    And before you say I shouldn’t let politics rule my friendships, my dad is dead because of how Trump bungled the covid pandemic response, so any person who has voted for that person has said that my dad dying is less important to them than that guy being given the highest office in the land.

    I cannot think of a graver insult, and it is one that cannot be apologized for short of bringing my father back to life.

    So if you voted for Trump, fuck you.
