      Drag likes the punchline here, but the setup doesn’t make sense

      “So you’re saying I should get a licence so I can drive a car, and I can drive a car because I have a licence?”

      Having a qualification isn’t tautological just because it can be phrased in two different ways

    This is why “sure” or “yes” are not part of my IT vocabulary. “Should” is king. “We should be be able to do” or “that should work.”

    In the idiocy of stakeholders that want IT to be a magic wand to fix their ineptitude instead of a helpful contributor to their well thought out process, you have to coach everything in the polite “no” that is “maybe” or “should.”

    I’m surprised I’m the first comment saying this, but all I see is a user who needs help expressing their needs but who is not getting that help. Sure they don’t have our experience with decomposing problems and anticipating technical issues, but that’s normal and expected.

      All I see is 5 minutes of the protagonist not listening (yadda yadda) to expressed needs, then getting upset at the word active being used again.

    Prefect modernized rage for the new era.

    Might use a big red (hd) FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU at the end imho.

    Also … will AI be sorting projects by active (with data from screen-watching everybody)?
    What a grand new world.

      This so much. If you can’t articulate it I’m going to make sure it stays your problem, not mine.

    The Game. You’ve lost it. In the quantum world, all things are not only active, but change, once you consider them.
