I inherited an ancient project that had literally tens of thousands of test.

I reviewed hundreds of them, tried rewriting dozens of them. Eventually, realize that essentially all of the tests were just testing that mock data being manually manipulated by the test gave the result of test expected.

Absolutely nothing useful was actually being tested.

Some team spent a couple of years writing an unholy number of tests as a complete waste of time. Basically just checking off a box that code had tests.

My wife and most of her friends have all lost their original accounts. She got an email that password was changed. We immediately took action. They had changed the email associated with account. No way to change it back. Only thing we could accomplish was getting the account disabled. Zero way to contact Facebook. These are all woman that FB was primary storage place for kids photos.

My wife takes full dose. Shes lost 60 pounds in six months. I have been taking the smallest dose.

Normally i can eat a full meal, and be hungrier at the end of it, then when i started.

For a couple of days after taking the small dose. I get full after a small amount. Then feel full for most of the day. I need to go up to a higher dose as this effect fades before next dose.

Been hearing about this for 35 years. Same old same old

Yes, 100s of billions of dollars were at risk on that vaccine. Kickbacks all over the place to the politicians to make sure everyone got it as many times as possible.

Never mind, there were cheap and effective drugs available that were more effective anyway, but emergency approval for a vaccine required that there was no alternatives available. Hence The demonization of anything other than the vaccine.

Facebook leaderboard for AT&T back when they were dropping calls like crazy. So really early in social media days.

The more you commented or liked posts the higher on leader board. Top comments would be automatically highlight.

I kept trying to get word to people in charge that the project would fail. No one would listen.

Went live for 1 day. Every top comment, was on how horrible AT&T was.

Shut down next day. 3 months of work for nothing.

I knew a company where they had cookie data for ads. They were able to figure out how tons of companies were related from that. Company A would own a bunch of other companies. But certain people would be common to all of them. Creating connections.

Long time ago I had to rebuild a cousins computer because it was crashing from all the malware.

After I finished cleaning it, I plugged it into the cable modem within seconds the computer was having pop-up ads, and every kind of malware you could imagine.

So rebuilt it once again, then installed antivirus from a disk before hooking it up to the internet. It was actually functional.

Sjögrens. Which is similar to Lupus.

Diet changes can make a huge difference. Earlier the better.

On many support forums I see a pattern of people using the various meds with mixed results. Then people starting to experiment with which foods they seem to do better with. Then discovering the auto immune protocol diet.

A lot of people don’t wanna go to the effort, so won’t try it and complain about it.

People that try it and actually follow it often have amazing results, and all their symptoms calm down.

A lot of people just cannot give up the pizza and chips though.

Look up autoimmune protocol diet if you want to cut inflammation.

Me along with the number of people I’ve since met, played around with what was OK to eat and not OK to eat to get inflammation under control only to eventually realize I was reinventing the same diet as AIP.

Got exposed to a lot of chemical gas in a home that had a gas leak. Developed all the above symptoms and more.

Later diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder. Sjogrens. Best I can figure, I had Sjogrens before, but it was so mild. I didn’t really notice or care. After the exposure, all the symptoms were amped up 50 fold. Also had Factor V Leiden. Which went from not an issue to multiple clots every single week.

After about four years, the symptoms dad calmed down to certain degree. Getting Covid was a full relapse for about six months.

Of course my wife got the vaccine and her arm swelled up and years later still hasn’t gone back down.
