He pissed off literally everyone who should be voting for him.

I do have to begrudgingly admit Joe Biden was probably actually one of the stronger candidate that could've gone up against Trump. With Trump it was just annoying insanity every single day for four years, so people yearned for the most boring candidate possible and they found it in sleepy grandpa

like, this would be a reasonable political spectrum I think far-left: nationalize everything, basically socialist entryism center-left: socdem poo poo, expand the gently caress out of the social safety net and do stuff that helps people but don't you dare seize those means buster, don't you do it center-right: tell everyone you're solving the problems by shuffling money around various groups and hoping the open market takes care of the rest (y'know, like pete buttigieg) far-right: probably still fascists but they're at least not lying about it centrism still doesn't actually mean anything though, I can't square that one

I think you have to have a rigid one party state with extreme ideological discipline and can’t afford spectrums . that is the most reasonable for awhile at least

Moralists don't really *have* beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded. Centrism isn't change -- not even incremental change. It is *control*. Over yourself and the world. Exercise it. Look up at the sky, at the dark shapes of Coalition airships hanging there. Ask yourself: is there something sinister in moralism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Earth.

I think in a sensical, realistic political spectrum the only workable definition for "centrist" is probably just "whatever the personal opinions are of the most influential person in the centrist party, that's officially what centrism means now"

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:lol I actually think any 2020 Dem candidate would've also beaten Trump, it was just a matter of by how much. Trump hosed up so much he basically handed Biden the W even with the incumbent advantage and some bafflingly bad choices on Biden's part, like choosing Kamala as VP

i say swears online posted:yeah honestly i don't know what the hell a ramp or a cycle is so i assume she's not selling HDMI cables and it's probably more like MRI machines or $50,000 software package b2b stuff i've had minimal interaction with sales engineers over the years (and i imagine that's pretty much what most of them at a company like cloudflare basically are), but i'm figuring the ramp is just short for ramp up/training time to understand the product suite and what their specific sales cycle looks like since every company is going to be a little different. some companies are more sales driven whereas others let the product drive itself via self-service where users discover and sign up/pay by themselves. it'd almost assuredly be large 5-6 figure sales in this case, probably DDoS protection type poo poo or something given their business. point is that three months isn't really a long time at all, and in a company of that size (CF's DNS covers the majority of the internet at this point afaik) there should be enough red tape that you can't do much of anything by then unless if you're in support or some role where you can get smaller tasks to start with. but i'm sure they still try to operate under a startup mentality, hence poo poo like this happening

dealing with sales people as a potential buyer sucks rear end if they're pushing demos and such on you, but some deals are big enough that you're just not gonna pay for it without someone involved on that end. saas avoids that in some cases, but even then every other product has some bullshit "contact us for pricing" enterprise tier

honestly if you're in product they're good to listen to because they'll be straight and tell you why prospective customers do or don't purchase your poo poo and if they're very good they'll have a technical comprehension to explain why
