who changed my cheese

This one's a little different, its a lesson in marketing:

Here's the story of the Piewheel. There was once a block of leftover cheese. It became aged and started to go moldy. The government had to sell it so they shaved off the corners and made it look like a pie wheel. They advertised it as cheese pie and enough people were curious about it that they clambered to buy the cheese and only thereafter tasted how bad it was. The government didn't provide a money-back guarantee, so the buyers protested but to no avail. The government won, the people lost. The moral of the story...don't fall for repackaged products and lies that have failed historically...socialism, wealth redistribution, guaranteed outcomes, etc.

Hi Michael.

I've been thinking about this for a while and I've reached the conclusion that no democracy long can survive a class of professional politicians. In fact, in certain respects, the notion is ludicrous.

So absolutely, positively, definitely no professional politicians sitting in Congress or Parliament all their lives. They should get out into the real world and get proper jobs, the way the rest of us do.

Regards,

Classic Mike, I think that you may be talking about half the products that launch in the IM space, your description fits the bill to a T.

A support desk that stops working 5 minutes after the product launch week finishes and chances of a refund, about zero, when the product stops working because it breaches the TOS of the platform which it was designed to operate on.

Never mind the creator will just rebrand and relaunch some weeks down the road, supported by their mates giving glowing testimonials.

Oh, the joys of being a shiny object chaser.

Luckily we are in good stead, a platform that continues to expand and support to match.
