Ah, it’s fine. RAM’s cheap.

Wait, what now? Oh. Oh dear.

I understand you’re not coming from a place of malice. But consider that not understanding why something is important is not a great reason to consider it unimportant if, nearly universally, experts consider it important.

Some of us use the Kelvin scale on a nearly daily basis in our jobs that primarily focus on sweating the small details.

I used to work at IBM. This guy is a classic case of manager brainrot and has filled the top few tiers of the company with the same. The only reason they make money is the rank and file know how to feed them trendy bullshit that makes them feel smart, which happens to also be a good way of separating other companies’ dumb C-suite types from their money.

But even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in a while.

It’s the structure that rolls under the rocket to allow techs to work on the engines and stuff while it’s vertical. It rolls out of the way, behind some heat shielding, before and during launch. Looks like the heat shielding failed or it moved, either way it got cooked.

The trouble with appeasement is that you’re eventually pushed to the point where you won’t cave anymore. You say no. And they punish you for it.

And now, all that appeasement has meant nothing. You sold your soul, you didn’t fight back, you did damage to yourself or your reputation or your customers or whatever. But you’re right where you would have been if you didn’t appease at all.

You have an enemy. If you didn’t, they wouldn’t be making you do terrible things. Do you want to tell them no to their face now? Or after they’ve recruited you into their scheme for years?
