Yeah, I remember the time i had a project manager who’d come over from the construction industry, used construction industry metaphors, and thought everything would be the same.

Management: we need to find ways to automate work using AI
Whenever we say some work is going to be difficult and time consuming now, management reflexively ask if we can fix it with AI. It’s like an excitable little kid getting a bicycle for their birthday and wanting to do everything on their bicycle now, including eating, sleeping and homework.

Marketing want us to add more typos to make the site feel more “friendly”.
Both should be the bottom picture to be honest.
Unironically this. Started playing on the campus network in my master’s year.
I swear I saw this guy dressed just like this on the way out of Coles today.
This is String - you’ve seen it before haven’t you, Gollum?
