Fucking CyberTruck like fucking pile of shit website. What kills me the most is that the fucking things they're screenshoting, those pages have literal "export to XML" buttons that they could fucking export, save the XML to some shared drive that gets swept, and the put it in some actually secure database.
This whole fucking thing reeks of some fucking weeb ass Roblox hackers whose last project consisted of Lua Script emulating some fucking redstone calculator they wrote in Minecraft. And the export fuction on the thing? It's just one dimension SUM function CSV exports. Literally no other dimenstions of values to add, shit I would be fucking surprised if a single one of the people writing the goddamn have ever heard of OLAP.
And to top it off, we already have a fucking website that does what this fucking place does, but 846 decillion times better. And it doesn't have a fucking Instagram esque reel of Tweets of people taking fucking screenshots of an open database.
I can't wait till the next dumbass gets into the White House and turns this pile of grabage off. Paying these idiots millions to power and run the hardware this pitiful excuse of a website runs on. And all we got for that money is some shit that is about on par as the shit you get from some O'Reilly book called "Building a Government Website Crash Course" with a Bald Eagle dying of bird flu on the cover.
This fucking idiot maybe wants to fucking learn what the hell SQL is.
But the government does not use SQL per ELMO.
I am waiting for this idiot to come up with something like EIQL (Elmo's idiotic query language).
Musk is wrong about literally everything. Must be nice to have enough money to make up for being a fucking moron.
I don't know if there's enough money in the world to make up for that horse's ass. All his purchased government position does, beyond destroying the US government, is broadcast how he's a feckless moron to anyone who isn't just as stupid.
Unfortunately, Musk isn't alone: many US citizens are that stupid.
And as high! haha
Wait . . what?
I'll need ketomine too to cope with this presidency.
Most.
30% voted for this, 40% couldn't be fucked to vote against this so we've got a base of 70% of this country being dumb as shit.
So you are telling me Musk has been touching techy things since about 1995 till now, and thinks there's an organization without any SQL at least someplace? I wouldn't dare suggest that about ISIS.
Any website - OK, web is inefficient and shouldn't be used. But their operations planning just wouldn't work so well without proper business analytics infrastructure.
Not enough 'X'
So, tell us how you really feel.
I'm here for it
Thanks, I needed that. Poetic.
Let's stop right here for a bit. With redstone in Minecraft you can make the same logical constructs that in real world lead from a bipolar transistor to a machine capable of decoding your porn in real time. And people, including kids, do design those.
Please show some respect.
Those who make calculators in Minecraft are not the dumb kind.
But yes, weird to expect almost college kids to have the experience needed. I can imagine some of them having the necessary education, but for a data analyst the mathematical basis is simple and the rest is experience.
