@shipwreckedcrew My first commercial software was for a California based savings and loan, advertising CD rates (savings accounts) live in each branch. After I wrote it, interest rates for savings accounts (!!!) passed 10% and my software broke. Kind of a Y2K error. Lesson learned.
@Knesix We are humans, one of our innate talents is anthropomorphism. It's what makes us different from the animals. Or the computers. Don't take that away from us. Let us enjoy being different, and caring, about things we probably should need to worry about.
@elonmusk@levie Look, the golden rule applies to everyone, and every thing. Just because someone doesn't see you return the shopping cart is not a reason to not do it. Being nice, being polite, is important regardless of whether it is noticed. Because, it will be noticed.
@johnkonrad I keep hoping that my liberal kids (who I deliberately raised to be open minded) eventually see the world as it is, not as they want it to be.
@CynicalPublius Reagan showed us the way forward. Rush gave us voice. Trump is willing to fight to the death for us. The Bush/Cheney/Romney/Ryan families used us like tissue.
@johnkonrad I get it. I met my wife in the Dominican Republic, at a friend's destination wedding. She's gorgeous and much younger, and I used to get snide comments from people that didn't know her. Once you get to know us, there is no question we were just made for each other.
@shipwreckedcrew Just like McCain in AZ, Bush family in TX, Cheney's in Wyoming, and Romney in Utah, the families corrupted local politics to benefit themselves and supporters over the actual voters in those states. This cleansing was overdue.
@data_republican Exactly. It caused a little pain for us in Arizona, Texas, Wyoming, now North Carolina, but it was necessary. Those establishment grifters were funding themselves, their families, and their supporters, instead of protecting this nation.
