  Since I lived in Silicon Valley way back when Larry, Sergey and Marissa were getting their recently-IPO'd company off the ground, I did my due diligence on them all way back then ... as a college grad, I liked and trusted all of them to do what they said they wanted to do with the company.   Especially that "don't be Evil" part.   And like most people who camped or resided within a CalTrain ride's distance to $Alphabet-C (GOOG.US)$ Mountain View campuses, I would have loved to work for Google back then.  There is no doubt in my mind that a majority of things would be totally different and better for the majority of people alive today ... if you guys had only given me a team and a chance.  Like I told everybody in the column about All the Native American Leadership Missing in Corporate America , I am who you need to hire to sustain your business -- not people who respond to damage on their ego with physical violence.   The absurdity.   Living on ...

  My paternal grandfather -- whom I never met -- is buried in Golden Gate cemetery.  His headstone says "U.S. Marine Corp" and "WWII". I mentioned in my introduction post that like most veterans and undercelebrated Navajo Code Talkers of his era, my grandfather did not dedicate his life to serving financial interests . The war on fascism enabled womens' rights on this continent.  My maternal ancestry has a significant chunk of Native American -- or, as we prefer to be called, "indigenous", and I was his first grandchild, despite the fact that my dad was not his oldest son.  Also since it is relevant to how we refer to time -- my parents were never officially married. My mother, being of indigenous peoples, did not believe in those certificates with incorrect time stamps issued by County-based courthouses, or in what their idea of "official" is.  She always knew her grandfathers and great grandmothers had been on this continent longer than Co...

  On October 10, 2021, I made a big deal among my friends -- both online and offline friends -- about deleting my Facebook account.  "The Internet is bigger than this immature guy's fantasy," I told them.  "Did you know he hoarded 90 percent of the IPO rewards for a full seven years after taking the company public? That is narcissistic, not to mention fascist and evil , and I am outta here for good. You know where to find me if you want to keep in touch." Uploading... "It's not called Columbus Day any more" -- IPDoHRR 2021 was my deletion day By the way, I will very likely direct some of my old FB friends to these columns, as I do plan to write for MooMoo's Community in a more frequent and generous way than I shared on Facebook.  If things go well with the assets I transferred over, I might share pictures of my 23 year old Siamese cat who, sadly, died earlier this year, only a few days after one of Facebook's goons got too close to him.  ...

  First and foremost: you are allowed to dislike any companies you want to dislike.  As a college graduate with not one, but two business degrees from 20 and 21 years ago respectively , a woman, a seasoned tech veteran who lived and worked in Silicon Valley for more than 7 years ( SHDH & HackerDojo co-founders from 140B remember me ) and a Native American indigenous to the very continent on which I am trying to survive, I have very specific and educated reasons for disliking the companies I dislike. Being able to exercise my freedom of press and share the songs of my logic as far and wide as there are open minds to learning is one of the best things about the Internet. Unfortunately, CEOs addicted the petrodollar don't like the clear, unobstructed communication channels available on Internet, and they really don't like women who have "equal" or "greater" logic, business intelligence, or success than they have.  The biggest fear of the CEOs addicted t...

  My first community contribution and introduction the other day ended with somewhat of a segue into this topic. Uploading... snapshot of Sea Surface Temp is 30.8° C / 87.4° by green dot; source: earth.nullschool.net Uploading... SST (Sea Surface Temperature) @ 27.56° N, 50.36° E was 31.4° Celsius yesterday These are the heat maps that I monitor daily. "The oceans being too hot" is a topic that traverses both sides of the global sphere, many disciplines, and it requires a calm and sober-minded analysis, not something proponents of the #petrodollar have been known for possessing.  As a writer on the Internet since 1995, I am well aware of the kinds of impatience non-scientific people have for facts and logic that goes contrary to their opinions of how the world should work. Those who made their retirement plans unaware that the petro dollar would lose its dominance this year may feel uncomfortable when reading this column.  It is not my intent to physically harm you.
