I've said before that my dream job would be writing for The Bee. This is from today's email (7.Feb) in an article titled "10 Inefficiencies In Government Computer Systems Identified By DOGE Workers".

For all my fellow current and retired programmers::

8. Woke government programmers kept trying to make the computer language non-binary: This caused the entire government computer mainframe to identify as inoperable.

      Good point, although this one was too good for me to pass up.

        Believe you me, I know that feeling. I've just managed to get better at fighting that urge to post a bee.
        Oh, speaking of bees, there's something I was taught by a lovely redhead back during the seventies who grew up on a farm with a large bee nest allowed to remain on the front porch by her parents.
        Say you're walking along and a bee that is not already mad at you gets in your face. Don't make it mad by swatting at it.
        Just calmly and gently push it out of your way with an open hand. I've done it at least a dozen times.
        Two or three times I've actually felt the buzz speed flapping wings touch my hand. Neither one of us got hurt.
        Warning, wasps and hornets get mad far quicker.
