Looks like I'm on your radar now. By the way, the etymology of the word "fedora" that was offered by one of the posters is incorrect-- I think it's an attempt at humor. It was not named after a tailor, but after a French play. I hope this helps you in your duties.

Your host warranted (maybe or maybe not in the legal sense, but still) that their personnel were competent to perform the work you paid them to do. But that turned out not to be the case. That is the real problem.

At my old company, one spiky-haired genius explained it to the simple minded as "monolithic architecture is like a wedding cake. Microservices are like cupcakes." This was after he compared it to Ben and Jerry's versus FroYo.

I sure hope the refrigeration doesn't go out, they'll have a real mess on their hands then.

The title is bogus, as the article eagerly admits: "To be perfectly clear, while the new tax is being referred to as the “rain tax,” it doesn’t actually tax the rain itself ..."

In a perfect world, storm sewers would fund themselves.
