Coté: UK Hailstorm (https://twitter.com/cote/status/1126454849300836352), will it work this time? Original HailStorm (https://www.itprotoday.com/windows-78/microsoft-hailstorm-controversy), circa 2002. HailStorm revisited/renamed in the Identity 2.0 era (https://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/10/30/microsoft_generva_hailstorm?page=1). And now? FB and Google authentication, I guess? (Also, remember this presentation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrpajcAgR1E&feature=youtu.be&t=24) that launched a million single word per slide talks?)

The Most Expensive Free Dog in the World.
Dead frogs tell no tales.
It’s just me and the dog.
Smart enough not to go up the stairs, dumb - enough to think the eggs are coming back.
Is Docker the new MySQL.
Most valuable, unrealized container brand: Google.
JEDI grudge.
Nihilism, greatly underrated.
