If amazon Linux tracked centos in the past it certainly doesn't now, the update policies are completely different in that amazon Linux regularly pulls new upstream versions

amazon-laying-off-corporate-employees-in-rare-cutback that was what I was referring to earlier, btw. also this gem: quote:The company has also recently instituted a mandate that managers who oversee other supervisors must have at least four people reporting to them. The aim, the company says, is to reduce layers of redundant management and keep the company flexible and fast-moving. it's pretty unusual to see directors and vps out of a job...

Actually, from what I can figure out, the "Pyramids were used to store grain" thing goes something like this: In Genesis, Joseph becomes important in the Pharaoh's court and his planning allowed the Egyptians to survive a famine. This melds with the "Jewish slaves built the pyramids" meme (they almost certainly didn't, there is very little evidence for large-scale Hebrew/Jewish settlement in Egypt before late antiquity (like Elephantine papyri-era), and most of the labor used was non-free corvée but that isn't exactly the same as slavery as it's normally used) and you get the pyramids being enormous grain silos. It's *wrong* but I always feel like it's treated as being more prima facie absurd by critics than I think is strictly fair.

If people take Genesis as the most reliable big-h Historical text that has ever/can ever exist how conversant with modern scholarship on Egyptology do you think they're going to be?
