    I see no reason it would not. Potatoes(good and neutral) + pesto(good and distinctive) = good.

    @jolly said in Covid and Age: It is here to stay and we better learn to live with it. Honestly, we need to be pushing effective treatments a shitload harder than we are. You bet your ass I'll be eating the horse paste in addition to the kitchen sink and whatever's underneath it.

    @jolly said in Those darn MGATS...: With the exception of 1/6, My $0.02: The problem with 1/6 is not that it was actually no big deal. It was a huge deal. It's that participants are labeled as, I dunno, some form of National Socialists by the public, and that's neither accurate nor helpful. But the event was nonetheless outrageous. More serious: there was a big gaping hole in the city of Portland last year, and not only was the public more or less fine with that, but the city government was. That's a massive problem. It was Evergreen in city form and it's got to stop now before more people die.

    @mik said in Causes of the congestion at Port Los Angeles: @copper said in Causes of the congestion at Port Los Angeles: Centralize all your data Distribute all your data repeat We made a fortune doing that for many years If you are centralized, we will distribute you If you are distributed, we will centralize you for lots of money These supply chain messes will lead to more local sourcing and the cycle will cycle Oh, so true. Mainframes are bad. You need PC software. PC software does not coordinate. You need servers with network connected desktops. Software on the desktops is too hard to update. You need mainframes application servers. Application servers are too isolated. You need the cloud. The cloud is too insecure. You need (whatever concept is repeated goes here.). Also We have too many employees. We need to use consultants. We are spending too much on consultants. We need employees. Repeat ad nauseum. The pendulum swings, and swings back. But again, I made lots of money off these cyclical fads. Well said @Copper and @Mik BTW the solution to the cloud insecurity is multi-cloud.

    @jolly said in Pick of the Litter: I'm damned good at sizing people up. Yeah, based on your career history, I would guess this as well. I'm also pretty good at understanding what actually makes people happy. I'm gonna go out on a limb and further guess you didn't have to contend with a mid-life crisis.
