  • Yeah but that time is long gone. Finance is throwing number in air of growth and profitability that must be met no matter what, and IT have to battle between what is effective, what the company tell them to do and what the users want, and in many case, the IT has a misplaced elitist attitude, like every user should know the infrastructure by heart and fix their problem themselves.





  • I’d say Republicans are good at saying thing that appeal to human emotions, not talking.

    To hell if they really go through what they promise. And they will take credit for things they have no parts in because it riles up their base.

    I mean, what was Trump platform exactly? The concept of a plan. Same as Doug Ford.

    Still, they were elected.

    At this point, the Democrats saving grace would be to go more left and proposing actual progressive programs and ditch the status quo. But the brass of the DNC don’t have the interest of the people first.

    I disagree that the left is bad at talking, it’s the North American culture that sucks at dealing with confrontation and dealing with things they disagree with. Any once of heated debate is too much and is seen as a big conflict instead of a healthy thing. So instead, any disagreement is automatically brought to the extreme because it is taken personally.

    Anyways, this is a complex subject and there are many things that needs to be done differently.









  • Because of FPTP, that means that the GOP will have the presidency for a long time because the Democrats vote would be split.

    And if that is the case, you can be sure that no voting reform will happen, bringing back the two party system.

    It’s the natural evolution of FPTP system.

    The best case scenario would be for the Democratic party to prop up a political reform as one of their main issue, in the hope that the voters will give them the presidency, senate and house to do just that.

    But the DNC would have to follow through will all of that if they get to that point, which probably won’t happen.

    So yeah, it looks bleak no matter how you look at it.




  • Yes, but San Marzano tomatoes that are sweeter are still only 3g of sugar per 100g, and 2g of net carbs per 100g.

    And if you make a mirepoix for your sauce, the sugars in onions and carrots are higher.

    So for people that are afraid of sugar, a sauce made with tomatoes, carrots, onions and celery isn’t as scary as adding sugar.

    And the acidity isn’t considered as well. From experience, they are less acidic as well, so you don’t need to add sugar to mask that.
