        @workchronicles reminds me of the time I had a very time critical task to complete, but I had a plan, and I had convinced one of the engineers to make some of his scarce time available to me. At that point my boss wanted to meet and talk about our options etc. My engineer disappeared, my plan could not proceed, something that would have been done in the next hour took another week.

The card does not need to be renewed, but I am member of their 'Förderverein' which has a annual fee. The fee is to finance events and some extra services of the library

They use the older system of writing down the book I borrowed on a card with my name on it which they keep in a box. The library still has a card catalogue system, something which I haven't seen since my early teens.

One of the dons asked a bunch of us students why none of us followed through with our job applications to such-and-such a company, this being a company which really did think it ought to have been attractive to Cambridge graduates. (Might have been Logica, but might not have been, it was a long time ago.)

It's an insult being asked to take that test so we drop the application."

                                                                                                    "They say that people who do well in their aptitude test make good employees, so it works, so they're keeping it."

                                                                                                    (They never hired anyone who didn't do well in their aptitude test. So they had no idea whether being good at the test correlated with being a good employee. And didn't appear to know that they had no idea.)

Huh! I would not have predicted. In Translate the words do sound slightly different, but I can't explain how. Maybe the r is subtly altered?

A lot of people overcorrect ä to be distinct from e when you explicitely ask them to pronounce a word, too, making it hard to get accurate data.

The Radiator integrates natively with IAM, though you will need to attach a custom policy to allow radiator:EmitGovernance on specific xlsx ARNs, and a separate policy to allow radiator:StopEmitting, which is a different permission. Pricing is 0.0034 USD per governance unit radiated, where a governance unit is defined in the supplementary FAQ as approximately one cell, except during cross-region replication where it is defined as a row, and new customers receive 2,000 free governance units per month for the first month in us-east-1 only, after which the Radiator will continue running.

I mean, I get that it probably is fun to use but... so many are out here pretending we have replicators from Star Trek and the best we can imagine is use it to sew buttons back onto our jackets or change the color of our socks?
