  • I don’t think anyone is going to disagree with you that the direction IBM execs were pushing the tech was terrible. I think this is a great example of how ego and narcissism can stifle innovation.

    He was an industrial psychologist. He was trying to develope and fit the technology to a specific psyche. He couldn’t get them to learn/use the new technology, so he created an interface for them, that they could/would use.

    It also shows how it seems business executives attitudes haven’t changed much, when it comes to ego and narcissism.


  • I feel personally attacked. This is me right now at the moment.

    I hate congestion and coughs, but I can deal with them, but once I get a fever, it’s like my will to live has been taken away.

    The worst is when it starts as a nasal drip, them slowly migrates to the lungs. Then I’m coughing up phlegm for at least a week.

    Add on to that, how strong NyQuil affects my brain, it can be weirdly "out of body-ish’ for me.

    (Does it take days for the side effects of NyQuil) Cough suppressants to wear off any of y’all too?)














  • The only item in my Honda (that I am aware of) that requires dealership attention is calibrating the “Honda Sense” sensors if they get replaced. And that is because the equipment required is so expensive, only the dealership carries it.

    Plus, the only time I needed that was when I was hit by someone and the sensor was replaced because the panels were replaced.

    I can still do all the minor maintenance myself, it is just a LOT more convenient for me to let my mechanic do it.

    Love my Honda. (Please bring back the Fit!)
