<p>> And obviously, a simple email to the data governance and privacy office would be taken extremely seriously.<p>What is this based on? I used to work for a data governance and privacy vendor that supplied data for audits. Tons and tons of customers asked us to fudge their data.<p>This is after the Delve scandal, where the hottest tech compliance company was completely fraudulent and numerous other hot tech companies also had completely fraudulent audits.<p>This is not a reasonable assumption.</p>

<p>Depends? Are those more narrow one’s better and people have a better idea of what ideal looks like?<p>I’m kind of horrified at people saying they had/have to work at their best friendships as with my best friends, everything is seamless.<p>There are no misunderstandings. We never have to forgive each other. We never even need to clarify things for each other much, as we are that well aligned.<p>Granted it may not be possible, but ideally go find a better match in a friend.</p>

<p>Fiscal conservatism only exists as an ideology when paired with hurting brown people. It does not exist as a meaningful political camp otherwise.<p>There is a reason that fiscal conservatives spend all their time on food stamps, environmental regulations, and a few random research projects and not even examining any of the top four costs that make up the overwhelming bulk of US spending.</p>
