Did you know that ISC has TWO job openings at the moment?

We are looking for two additional engineers for the Stork team. Stork is our powerful, scaleable, easy-to-use, open source, graphical management tool for DHCP and DNS.

These are both 100% remote, work-from-home jobs (from almost anywhere in the world) and ISC is a great place to work (even if we do say so ourselves).

If you're not a bot, please apply at https://isc.recruitee.com !

With new COVID-19 variants looming and renewed attacks on vaccines, masks, and other basic preventative measures, I just want to mention that:

- I still routinely mask up in crowded or poorly ventilated spaces. I mask on planes and trains. I teach with my mask on.

- I test any time I'm feeling under the weather.

- I plan to get the updated vaccine.

I'd *prefer* not to do any of this, but at worst, it's in the "mild inconvenience" category, and far preferable to long-term disability.

There are people floating around who have injected the AI Kool-Aid directly into their brains. I was listening to an online chat group of people from many countries and the host was putting sci-fi to shame. "Teachers will be assisting AI." or "All jobs will be handled by AI and robots." or "All medical care will be provided by AI."

On and on, and instead of arguing about whether these fantasies had any basis in fact, people were arguing about whether all these miracles would happen in two years, or eight years, or fifteen years. This was by far the nuttiest discussion about how AI will transform the world that I've heard so far.

A few people did wonder about the future of humans in this paradise. "Why have children?" was also discussed. No resolution of that question.

Oh, yeah--with AI's help, people will live to be 300. You heard it here!

😇 (Me? I know nothing about the stock market but if Kool-Aid shares are for sale, I think I'll buy a few and gift them to my grandkids.)

What we would like to know is this: if Trump's tariffs are illegal, how soon will we get our $6k tariff payment back that we paid for our recent shipment from Japan? Our little business has many better uses for six grand.

No, I won't hold my breath. Cold day in hell and all that.
