Unitary Executive ≡ Dictator under 50% vote Kent State
The world is not linear.
-- Dr. McElhone/1974
Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely.
-- Lord Acton/1887
Effective immediately, all laws, regulations, and obsolete norms limiting my authority over federal govenment employment are suspended. I am the unitary executive, and if you work for the federal government, you work for me. I demand total loyalty from my employees.
-- Donald J. Trump by Executive Order, this day 7 December 2025 [Paranoia is a main driver.]
Well, we all are going to die.
-- Joni Ernst/2025 [and you committed electicide. good for us]
There's not a single example of things working out for the appeaser.

... but Flash-based storage has such a different performance profile from rotating media, that I suspect that it will end up having
a large impact on filesystem design. Right now, most filesystems tend to be designed with the latencies of rotating media in mind.

This Week's thought
Now, most of the drilling companies have gone, and the Cook Inlet gas is dwindling. Officials expect that, in the next several years, they may not have enough of the fuel to keep all the lights on in Anchorage, the state's biggest city. -- Rebecca F. Elliot/2025 [I guess Conservative doesn't mean what we were taught in grade school? now: use it all up and fuck the kids]

Shameless Plug
I know a little something about SQL, DB2 (preferably LUW, z/OS if the money's right), Oracle, SQL Server, Postgres, and database design in general. Mentoring/teaching/consulting on a short term basis, too. And a bit of stat analysis if it's R.
