Nah, by the time millennials were old enough to use the internet, it was already there. Speaking as Gen X, I recall the days when you could just get stuck in a game and never figure it out. Or you’d call a pay-per-minute phone number or hope a magazine would cover it.

All right, I got the OK from PR. The company I work for is called Olo (stock symbol: OLO). We're not well-known because we operate behind the scenes in the restaurant industry, enabling online food orders to appear directly in our clients' POS systems rather than on a separate tablet. We do a lot more than that now, but those are our roots.

I think I’d best run that by our PR folks first lol

Holy shit

Nice. My company isn’t likely to drop their DEI policies either. Public but not well-known.

Yeah, this is the way. Disable icons and recycle bin too.

Finally, some good fucking news

True, that is surprising and makes everything worse. It's probably controlled by a setting that none of those engineers knows how to change, based on the lack of knowledge described here.

Or write a tool that can do all these steps for you, reliably!

This sounds 100% credible, based on the outcomes we can see

Oh, no doubt. I'd rather have that any time over what we're talking about instead!

Sounds like classic junior engineer shit. “Let’s do a big rewrite!” Followed by everything going to shit because they don’t how to create good maintainable software architecture and for whatever reason there weren’t enough senior engineers around to show them the way.
