  I work for a crown corp in Canada we have, off the top of my head, about 800 MSSQL, Oracle, MySQL/MariaDB, Postgres databases across the org (I manage our CMDB). Musk is a retard. The world runs on SQL.

  He wouldn’t know this though because he’s a techbro that builds apps with MongoDB b cause he doesn’t understand what normalizing data is and why SQL is the best option for 99.9999999% of applications.

  Fucking idiots.

  Same for me with the Samsung Note. It’s just a great size but can’t bring myself to use it and screw apple and their technology design for idiots.

  I have big hands and long fingers. I’m still waiting for phones to get big enough for me lol

  Lol I had one of these from a wrong number. I ended up pissing them off and they stopped talking to me because before they could even get into the scam I had a long winded rant with them about crypto being monstrously useless and I’d never in a million years invest in magic beans.

  On I get that. Are ppl that dumb?

  For decades after high school I still had a stash of lighters that weren’t mine. I miss those days. My friends and I called it “the lighter game” and the goal was to be the person at the end of the night with the most lighters. At a party once my buddy pocketed like 6 it was hilarious.

  I have 2 autistic boys and Ive said this repeatedly to them and shared it here. Autism does not entitle you to be an asshole

  Elons parents clearly did not teach him this, or they failed.

  It’s not the rich call it what it is. Capital. When profits are impacted we will see change. This is why I continue to say no one is going to bat an eye when Florida gets swallowed by the ocean but when New York does? That’s when we will have a collective eye opening.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Checking in⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Its not real but if you are craving Gene Wilder you can try both Haunted Honeymoon and Sherlock Holmes Younger Brother.

  They’re not amazing movies but they’re entertaining and certainly have their moments.

  Something about Huberman rubs me the wrong way. I get the same “snake oil salesman” vibe from him I get off the rest of the alt-right toxic masculinity crowd.

  I paid for premium recently which helps a bit except now the problem is a lot of the content I watch ppl are doing sponsored segments which I get but at the same time fuck off.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's been known for almost 40 years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yup. I mean I 100% get the toxicity that Americans are dealing with and I’m blessed that my family does not have that problem but you can’t hold hands with closed fists. Someone has to extend the olive branch might as well be me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's been known for almost 40 years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean I understand but at the same time I could never have those rules I expect to be challenged and I expect other people to be challenged otherwise how do people with asinine opinions change?

  Case in point my daughter’s best friend has parents who are anti-vax you best know that is a button I am pushing consistently and firmly. I may not be able to change the parents but I ain’t letting that child be indoctrinated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's been known for almost 40 years⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Mine does too which is hilarious because I’m the dad and my ex-wife is OoTL most times.

  Take it as an indication your daughter trusts you.

  FWIW I’ve been very clear with my kids and I only share relevant info with my ex so if a kid says it’s a secret I will make it a secret.

  I’ve heard enough shit in my time as a parent I really question other parents lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Any relations experts?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I will say this in my bluntly antiquated way (47 man).

  I kissed my buddy in high school because fuck it it was a dare. Didn’t like it it’s fucking weird. I wear pink. Love pink. I’ve painted my nails, dyed my hair, wore a dress before. I do all that because I know I’m straight. It’s hilarious watching less secure people do juggling exercises in their heads when I know I’m going home and I’m fucking chicks.

  My current gf is far more conservative than I am so I’ve toned down a lot but my joke has always been my grandma thought I was gay and asked my cousin once. He told her I’m not because he’s walked in on me so many times having sex with girls lol.

  Moral of the story, don’t give a fuck what people think. Do you and if doing you is being gay then be fucking gay. Own it. Trust people like me will have your back if some dickhead pushes back.

  I’m with John Waters. We need to bring perverts back into fashion.

  I’m looking forward to it. GenX here, fuck all of you and fuck all of this. I just want to spend time with my family and friends.

  I don’t think anyone outside of GenX understands how fucked GenX is. We are jaded AF You’re free to come for us but fuck around and find out.

  There’s a reckoning coming with social media mark my words. I don’t know when or how but it’s going to reach a tipping point when the destruction is enough.

  It is destroying families and communities not government, or science, or policies. People like Elon and Zuckerberg are sowing the seeds that are actively destroying the fabric of society.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As the Canada "tax holiday" starts, Walmart increased the price of an item by the amount I would have saved⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I laugh because he keeps extending it too and I sure and shit bet he will extend it again so the next government to come in has a poison pill in killing his gas rebate effectively raising the price of gas drastically overnight.

  This is 100% intentional by the OPC. Bunch of fuckwits.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The last time I went to HR on toxic leadership it was very well known. I told them I’m the ideal employee. I’ve been here (at the time 10 years) rarely make a fuss. Never been to HR before. I had a well thought out letter explaining the challenges I was seeing and how toxic it was and how it was impacting myself and my coworkers.

  They asked for names. I gave none. I told them they have the names (I had good info these people were well known). I explained that people are leaving the org, good people are not coming here. They need to address it. About 1+ year later there was a huge clearout of leadership then another a couple of years later. People who were well identified as toxic.

  I like to think my speaking up helped with that, and I’m still here. More people need to stand on their principles damn the consequences.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There probably is a confirmation bias at work here. People with healthy workplaces are probably less likely to complain online?

  Same that they anonymized the data but c’mon I know people writing style I could tell which coworker wrote what if they narrow it down enough like by department.
