Obfuscation and Entreprenurs


It amazes me how,in IT and web-related circles, most of the charlatans working in those areas usually cement their indispensability by coming up with new cloudy, nebulous descriptions for what is essentially the same thing.

So subroutines became objects and so on. A few months ago someone sent me an email asking if I had received a "wire-frame"; I replied no, but I had got the blank document they sent me.

I was recently invited to a "deep dive". I didn't realise we had taken up subaquatic activities! I think they meant a detailed analysis session!!

The other thing is that the government seem to think the economy could be kick-started by using prisoners as cheap labour. Well, the entrepreneurs will pay next to nothing while the taxpayer foots the security bill.

Everywhere you look, people are trying to take you for a ride and not in a good way. Rant over.
