The assumption was that you might have grandchildren. Not that you want them 😉

Some want their own kids, some not. Some don’t know them…

The value of working in my home office. Since the start of covid, and ongoing. Maybe I am overvaluing it now. But maybe not?

Well, this is processing the data, isn’t it?

Back in the days, some decades ago when Amazon “invented” the tracking and processing of every single mouse click in their online shop, it was big news in the IT world. First from a technical point of view, because it needed some serious computing power on their end, and it used up some bandwidth on the user’s end, which was much more limited at that time than today.

Wait… so he actually knows what the standard levels 4 and 5 are??

You don’t cost them. You benefit them by giving them all the knowlege about what you want, how you search for it, what details are the most interesting for you etc.

Thank you.

Are you happy in general?

Humans, overwhelmed and outmatched, would have no choice but to retreat

So which kind are you?

At equal weight, the Gorilla is the better fighter.

Usa continues to sail away from all the rest of the world.

I really really want them to prove that

Don’t be afraid of your son.

Be afraid for your old bones when your little kid needs you to play some sports with him.

Isn’t Hollywood going to unleash armies of lawyers on them?

For about three weeks I was having bad thoughts going round and round in my head all day long, and I was barely able to do my work.
