The potato and gravy at KFC uses whatever crud fell to the bottom of the friers each day. Usually that was good chicken bits, but sometimes it could be whatever the staff were playing catch with for fun.
Oh and be nice to the people making your food. Trust me on that one.
Our SSL implementation never checks the certificates, largely defeating the purpose of SSL.
Certain search engine company was a badly managed, bureaucratic slog of an ads-driven soulless corporation for way longer than people think.
I worked for a company that had an expensive San Jose lease during the .com bubble. When they decided they needed to get out of that lease, they folded the company - “fired” everyone, then re-hired everyone under an independent second company that was owned by the parent company. Sketchy, but not really surprising…
When they re-hired me, they didn’t have me sign any NDAs. All the old NDAs were with the company that folded, not the parent company. Some days I wish I had been unethical enough to sell off their source code to a competitor.
You would never buy a car if you were involved in making it. We have a vehicle that dumps all its coolant on the road as you drive your brand new car back from the dealership. Making cars is difficult.
