Yeah, I think the bigger problem was being passive about it and giving a dumb non-confrontational excuse. "I'm bringing my own sealed food because I love ya, but you morons have showed you lack basic survival skills, and I can't be sure you won't feed me mayonnaise you left on a radiator or chicken sashimi," not "my tummy doesn't get rumbly until later"

I'm just thinking that "tech analyst" means "reviews phones" and I can't really think of any other possible use for the term outside of like, a game of xcom.

Best to just stick to berries that have the same form as raspberries/blackberries. Beyond that, look but don't touch. My kid is in the mindset of "come look at this cool mushroom!" then once she's shown it off, she stomps all over it.
Trying to get her to use a camera instead. It's a work in progress.

Ignore my posts!
I'm aggressively wrong about everything!
My read on 'tech analyst' is that it's one of those completely arbitrarily-named roles in tech development that technically does have a codified list of responsibilities, but is mostly just named that so that it puts a more important label on something typically seen as low-rent.

She's probably a tester focused on minimum system requirements or sonething.

Business consultant is cool though because you can charge 70k to tell a room full of adults “if you make your meetings shorter by 15 minutes then you can do 15 more minutes of work and thus increase productivity”

quote:

“Would it not be better if they spent more money on wholesome things like oranges and wholemeal bread or if they even, like the writer of the letter to the New Statesman, saved on fuel and ate their carrots raw? Yes, it would, but the point is that no ordinary human being is ever going to do such a thing. The ordinary human being would sooner starve than live on brown bread and raw carrots. And the peculiar evil is this, that the less money you have, the less inclined you feel to spend it on wholesome food. A millionaire may enjoy breakfasting off orange juice and Ryvita biscuits; an unemployed man doesn't. Here the tendency of which I spoke at the end of the last chapter comes into play. When you are unemployed, which is to say when you are underfed, harassed, bored, and miserable, you don't want to eat dull wholesome food. You want something a little bit 'tasty'. There is always some cheaply pleasant thing to tempt you.”

Yep black pudding too, oatmeal was the base 'filler' for lots of 'peasant' foods.

I was so revolted at the idea of black pudding as a child I never tried it until I was well into my 20s. loving delicious, all those years missing out.
