"Our industrial scales come in a variety of sizes and idyllic functions" - why settle for functions that are merely pleasant, when you can have IDYLLIC FUNCTIONS.

Chris PetrilliThem: if you set aside all the ethical concerns…
Me: this is what evil is. This is how evil talks.
I'm not sure that I'd want to sign up to a health insurer whose advertising was still spouting the long debunked medical myth that "we only use 10% of our brain". Will they deny coverage due to a pre-existing imbalance of the humors?

Every single step of the experience trying to start using Odoo feels like they started with the premise, "what if we attempted to create the platonic ideal of a bait-and-switch scheme?" I strongly do not recommend.
Did you know that dice are psychic? They can read your mind, and will roll to display the number you were thinking. You just need to think about a number between one and six *really* hard, while you're rolling the die.

The chatbot is a clockwork mechanism that extrudes text optimized to make you *think* your question has been answered.
It is also a machine built by fascists with the goal of creating a dependent, de-skilled, submissive populace and ending Democracy. HTH.
You know that thing coders do when they take over a project, where they say everything's terrible and needs to be rebuilt? Turns out accountants do *exactly* the same thing. "This is all wrong, I can't work with this, the chart of accounts needs to be completely different."
I don't think I'd want to be reserve bank governor (our equivalent of the fed chair) for any money. You get one lever, of questionable effectiveness, and massive unpopularity. Meanwhile the government's sticking to the politically expedient, knowing that no matter how useless they are, you'll be there to pull their macadamias from the campfire. #auspol
