    Exactly. On any given project only the top person had any inkling of what could be considered a substantive part of the overall progress or state of the project itself. Everyone below was in their own silo and acted as more as gatekeeper of information more than anything else. All bosses had their personal fiefdom.

    @LuFins-Dad said in NR: Biden's Brazenness on the border: I’ve got an objection to it on moral grounds. I am done with omnibus bills. I’m for Ukrainian support, I am for Border Control. Put each issue up for a vote by itself. They fly or they don’t . I can support that.

    @taiwan_girl said in Do you use a inefficient vaccine?: @Renauda I dont remember. It was pill form, and the side effect that I heard was effecting eyesight, but maybe nightmares was another one. Never took it, and fortunately, never had malaria. Come to think of it now it wasn’t shots but rather a series of pills. I don’t recall them saying anything about eyesight being affected. Just the nightmares and then only after a few weeks of talking the routine dosages . I suspect the drug had to accumulate in the system before the side effects started to manifest.

    @Mik said in A Day At The Museum: That was one of my fave parts of the museum. How many people did it educate and make aware of the history? I'm pretty sure the Chiefs won yesterday. Go injuns!

    But… Perplexingly enough, all these cuts are happening at a time where both podcast ad revenue and podcast listenership are growing steadily. It’s another winner-take-most market.
