Comment It's Not What You Know! (Score 1) 32

Supporting them further isn't going to change the dynamic of the outcome. They thought that simply getting these people through college was the "secret". Now they are out of college, and though certainly better off, they still under perform their wealthier academic peers.

The fixers and their studies refuse to "see" that the causation is connectedness. It's not simply because you have a BA. You succeed because you have a BA, or better, AND you've got connections to other people of wealth.
When you hit the streets and start looking for a job with your Pell Grant BA, good luck to you. It is not the same job hunt as daddy saying; go meet my old so-and-so, Reginald, over at Dewey Screwem & Howe. He should be able to find something for you. If he doesn't have anything, I'm sure he can connect you to someone who does. Boom, you're in, even at the ground floor, with wealthier and more connected people. Your network is vastly superior now and into the future, as compared to the unconnected door knocker.

Do you think George Bush, Bill Clinton, DJT are top of their class geniuses rising to power through skill and osmosis? Or do you think that they were adequately intelligent, but highly connected?

And I'm not talking about nepotism. I simply saying that when you're running in circles that expose you to better opportunities, you'll do better. This social networking aspect of life is one of the reasons why university grads of any walk do better than high school grads. The university graduates meet and connect with more better people.

Lots of buggy containers. Sure. There are likely tens of thousands more that didn't get detected.

But, let's talk about the intentionally malicious or rooted containers. I know that they are there. The entire container repository system makes it way too easy to plant malicious containers and everyone blindly downloads and executes this shit as root all day long.

How come no one talks about the disastrous lack of security in the way that everyone uses containers? How many compromised containers are sitting on Docker Hub?

How the fuck is this news?

The food is more expensive than in store. Then, you have to pay a delivery fee. And then, you're expected to tip.

Total purchase is ridiculously expensive. No one should be using this, most especially the peasants. These people will complain about inflation and food prices and then turn around and order from Instacart. It's ridiculous.

But, Instacart et al user and revenue numbers just keep climbing.
