@hazelweakly The third hardest is I presume then to get people in tech to understand that 90% of all ‘technical’ problems are instead socio-political ones and that neither political nor social problems have technical solutions?
@hazelweakly In the veterinary drama "All Creatures Great and Small," the vets desperately need one of the new postwar antibiotics, and eventually get them from a 200 year-old firm of chemists. They express surprise that a veteran rep working for a traditional firm is able to keep up with rapidly changing times.
The rep smiles. "I find," he says, "that the things that matter most are the things that change the least."
"And what are those," they ask him.
"People."
