• "So sad every person at IBM spends more than 50% of their day worrying about being the next person to be kicked off the island. IT DID NOT USED TO BE LIKE THAT WHEN I STARTED! Every person at IBM will have their Bingo number called at some point as they hire more and more incompetent people based on age, s-x, race, skin color etc and offshore jobs to many places people cannot find on a map.

I get my job done just fine without being connected."

• That C code needs to be redone with Rust is a lie because 1) there are VASTLY more C developers than Rust "devs" and 2) the companies that tell us that are NOT interested in security; au contraire - they're ACTIVELY ENGAGED in putting BACK DOORS in things
