 This happens more frequently than you would imagine.

Someone installs a POP3 mail server in a laptop, and shoves the laptop in a closet just because it's the fastest way to stand something up for some new system that's months behind schedule. The new system goes to production, and everyone who was involved in the project moves on to something else.

Years go by, and everyone forgets about the laptop in the closet. Decades go by, and it's time to replace the system because it's end of life. The new engineers come in to do requirements gathering, and ask "So, this thing sends mail... where's the mail server for that?" It's not postfix on the application server. It's not the Exchange server. It's not in the cloud. It's a local IP somewhere in the East Overshoe office. "They have servers in East Overshoe?" someone in IT asks. "I thought all their servers got moved to the cloud." Eventually, someone has to drive out to East Overshoe, to go on a search for the missing server. Nobody can find it. None of the people working there know what servers are; this is the finance department. "Oh, I don't know what that cable going in that closet is. Didn't you guys do that? We don't have the key to it." Two hours later, someone gets the door open, and behold, the mail server the entire system depends on is an ancient laptop that just never restarted itself or lost power. Because it's a Windows XP machine. In 2023.

The Columbine massacre was on this date in 1999. Instead of energizing our country to get gun violence under control, it kicked off a new normal. One of the best explanations ever of journalism's destructive impact on mass shootings came from Roger Ebert in his review of Gus Van Sant’s “Elephant.”

essa vida reclusa está fazendo alterações em mim. minha tolerância para ficar dentro de um carro está quase zero, hoje fui ao shopping e era tudo tão barulhento que quis fugir. as pessoas ouvem as coisas alto no celular e vai me despertando o MD em um dia de fúria.

Eu acho bizarro q as palavras índio e indígena NÃO TENHAM origem imediata comum (índio tem relação com a Índia, o rio Indo. Indígena vem do latim, endo, aquele q é de dentro do lugar, oposto ao que vem de fora q é... alienígena!)
