I'm sad because we are endlessly debating calling '<' and '>'
"special characters" that can't be in data set variable labels (or
not). Apparently 'lt' and 'gt' are clearer (but potentially make
the labels too long). We've always used '<' and '>' (plain ASCII
characters) in labels and never had this issue before.

Sad indeed. Has something about the system changed to drive this
reclassification?

re 208: the thing that changed is we have a different team on the client side
and since they've gone through so many layoffs and re-hires since I worked
there, very few people understand how things work anymore. The system hasn't
changed that much. They were also worried that XML couldn't handle '>' and '<'
because they are part of tags.

Human beings are STILL sold as slaves in Libya 🇱🇾.
I'm sad that Obama put American resources toward Arab Spring and the
Muslim Brotherhood.
I'm also sad that Nike and Apple use slave labor in China.
The good news is that so many government pensions benefit from their
rising stock prices.
My dead grandpa already filled out his mail in ballot.

Nixon vs JFK
Chicago carries
Not for nothing but I worked in county gov and saw how DNC pushed
the DNC controlled municipalities to move toward mail-in.
And yea...I also saw how County Ethics and County Elections depts buried
the news that they found shelves full of uncounted ballots and still
bury the news. It's a machine and it's real.

1. Trump wins but the DNC quickly contests the results.
2. Mail-in ballots are said to be counted.
3. It turns out Trump didn't really win (surprise!).
4. Trump refuses to leave and calls the mail-in ballots bogus.
5. The Democrat House calls on the military to remove Trump and for
anyone who helps him to be arrested.
This scenario has been written about for over a year in the mainstream
press. They have been conditioning people for this outcome.
The Obamas aren't campaigning for Biden.
They are campaigning for mail-in ballots.
Think about it. Michigan already sent us ours. We promptly ripped them
in half and threw them away. If they close the polling stations "due to
covid" there will be RIOTS.

Possible, but I feel no confidence predicting step 6.
I have voted by meil-in ballot for thirty years, but I feel bad thinking that
it's even possible a major political party might stoop to abusing the voting
process for political gain. But here we are, Boss Tweed.

re #214
Now if we can get some cartoons in Harper's maybe we can get Boss Tweed
exposed. That is if things aren't "burned down" or "defunded"

I'm sad because although my boss strives to be transparent all that is
translating to is "I'll tell you when you are no longer needed at this
company." Looks like I have a couple more months of work before I find
out what the real plan is.

I'm sad because Grady on Sanford and Son was only 41 in the first
season.
He looked more like 60 or 70 at the time.

11 months ago Bart Walsh died. He was the guitarist for the VH cover
band out here in Los Angeles and eventually he toured with David lee Roth.
Both of those guitarists had serious health issues.
It's tragic.

Still at this place (working from home). Latest project is going badly
due to too many changes for things that should have been reviewed and
fixed weeks ago. And the closer we get to delivery day the more changes
there are.

I've discovered that putting an orange filter over my LED office lamp helps
my brain wake me up with fake sunlight. Flourescent bulbs or dimly
lit spaces have the opposite effect.

Flourescent bulbs and dimly lit spaces make me sad.
I don't want to leave that out there without shining a light on the solution

Just like Bruce Springsteen, he was Blinded By The Light.
I'm not sad at all. In fact, I feel blessed, even when my job sucks.
I'm working and many others are not.
Life is challenging and nothing good comes without a challenge.
Challenges help us grow.
Challenges, when met with solutions keep us in good favor with out
employers.
Bitching is useless.
Bitching is for bitches.
