The Black Mark Of A Bachelors degree
Yes, I look forward to that day, too.
Back in the eighties, when I was trying to get management at Rockwell to buy clones instead of IBM PCs, because we could have three times as many machines for the money, when the saying was “Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM,” I’d say, “When I’m in charge, I’ll fire someone for buying IBM.”

Latest Spam Phone Calls
OK, they’re not really spam, because they ask, “Is Rand Simberg there?” But that’s all they do, despite a clear machine request to leave a message. They’ve come from three or four different numbers. One of them asks repeatedly, “Is Rand Simberg there?” for over a minute (it’s my business line, so it just says “This is Interglobal Media [my corporation], please leave a message.”). I can’t help but believe, despite (or because of) the fact that they are looking for me, that these are people with whom I have no interest in talking. If they were legitimate, they’d leave a damn message what it’s about and leave a call-back number.
BTW, yes, posting has been light, because I’ve been very busy. Fortunately, in a potentially highly lucrative way.

The Latest IPCC Report

Activist Academia
How it destroyed scholarly peer review.
Peer review is highly overrated.
