A Disconnect: Department of Defense and the Silicon Valley Scooter Riders

May 2, 2019

I have a short conversation with a real reporter about why Silicon Valley top dogs cannot keep their puppies in line. There are walk outs, sit ins, and dust ups about what senior managers expect and what their code monkeys do.

Defense One published an interesting summary of this jar of pickled pigs feet, the ghastly green and pale pink delights once popular in rural Kentucky.

The Pentagon Is Flubbing Its Pitch to Silicon Valley” runs down the gap between the Silicon Valley jefes and the Department of Defense. The summary is quite useful, and it includes hot links to several high-value books.

But the highlight of the article was this observation:

Surveys have shown us for decades that tech executives are quite politically liberal, albeit rather libertarian on regulatory issues. But it’s becoming clearer how much more progressive their workers are than the bosses.

One key point is tucked behind this statement. The leaders of Silicon Valley companies are used to getting their own way. People used to getting their own way expect those whom they pay to do what they are told. Entitlement? Arrogance? Upbringing?

Probably a pinch of each stirred into an ego centric soup.

The chasm is widening and there is no easy way to cross it. The split within the large firms has been identified by Defense One. Now what will the newly privacy infused Facebook, the online ad giant Google, and the Amazon bulldozer do?

No answers from Harrod’s Creek, of course, because scooters versus smart weapons is a tough call for some to make.

    In the supreme emergency of war, the telephone is as indispensable, very
    nearly, as the cannon. This, at least, is the belief of the Japanese, who handled their armies
    by telephone when they drove back the Russians.

    Ben Bernanke himself appeared on various talk shows and financial news
    networks, over and over and over again, to assure financial news media hosts who I think are either just dumb, or
    are playing dumb, that everything with the housing
    market was fine in 2007. I’ll do you one better read this brilliant Business Insider compilation of 30 of the most ridiculous and incredulous things Ben Bernanke said prior to, and during, the housing crisis.

    By that point we already had the videos for Thrown Into The Fire, Heart From Your Hate and Sin, and this isn a scene from either of the videos we gotten since, as
    far as I recall. So either this wasn for a music video or we
    got at least one more video coming, and at that point
    we have 6/11 not counting the live video for Betrayer, so it almost be pointless to not do the other four
    songs as well in some way.HeavenlyArmed 3 points submitted 1 month

    Interact with men and women on their own terms,
    every single day. Ask them about themselves. Private subreddits, they are locked
    so you need to be invited by the sub admin. I have
    made quite a few friends here so we made our own sub so that we can share things.

    Most reddit posts are searchable online so if for instance you posted emails from your Nmom (as
    I did before the sub ruled against them) one could google them, find the
