   Sure, biased data for worse than wrong models that only   
   confirm themselves... Meanwhile real production is in the   
   hands of the marketing and project management guys, while   
   at writing code you want the computer scientists, in that   
   proving that you not haven't got the faintest idea what   
   software even means, but also you haven't got a clue   
   where your own discipline starts and where it ends!   
      
   Indeed, I was a top notch consultant in my area and giving   
   university lessons on technology and technologies up to the   
   '90, i.e. before SE or CS even existed as faculties.  Then   
   the fucking locusts descended on us, and the fucking frauds   
   all just to happy to jump on yet another bandwagon...   
      
   Sure, do open a comp.lang.rust, you have no fucking   
   clue what "picky" even means.
