I worked at company_name when the .xxx top level domain became available, and my boss was sure that we should buy company_name.xxx. I talked them out of it. Luckily no one has maliciously registered company_name.xxx all these years later. I

In Richard Feynman's book, "Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman!" he tells the story of his exploits in safe cracking. And the eventual "solution" that the bosses come up with... not to make their safes safer, but

_those are for playing MP3s off a flash drive._ I am reminded of the workaround people used to use for inputting streamed audio to their old car stereos through a cassette tape adapter. Could the computer emulate a flash drive somehow?

In ETL work I often come across a nightly job that is harder to implement than most for some snowflakey reason, and I just start my day doing it manually, which might just take a minute. At some point I will get so annoyed that I will take
