Apply for Government Tech Contracts

-


The youth create technology products. They fiddle with technology constantly. That is why they improve the products they improved two years ago. They are marketed and governments across the world, are the big ticket buyers because they have Education budgets, Agriculture budgets, Infrastructure budgets and Technology budgets.

The problem is communication. The seller and buyer don’t speak the same language. Example. The youth speak tech, U.S. Congress and Senate speak another language, because most members are over 60.  It’s frustrating for both sides.

Who: Tik Tok CEO Shou Zi Chu testifies before Congress

When: 23 March 2023

Why: America accuses ByteDance, Tik Tok’s parent of spying for China

It was a David and Goliath situation. The Tik Tok CEO knew his stuff. Questions from Goliath demonstrated paucity of knowledge when it comes to everything, with a T for technology.

Looking for Government Contracts?

Creators of technology and buyers should be on the same page and it’s basically young vs old. The youth create, old guys in the Finance Department sign on the dotted line and release the money.

The problem is the crocodile. Crocodile? Yes. Young people often find the older generation boring because of ‘old school’ thinking. Their forefathers knew the crocodile’s habits, and relayed them down generations. Youth in 2024, believe that the crocodile is different. It has new teeth: a password, URL, understands coding and other tech terms.

Tech companies have more to lose if the two parties don’t agree on the new Jack crocodile. They must explain more, and assume less. Older men and women that control Technology budgets don’t understand many things, tech guys regard as basic.

Elections And Political Bullies

-

Forget democracy.   It should be called political bullying. We are watching it in the prelude to the Canadian election on the 19 th of October, 2015.   Americans have also started their political bullying for the looming presidential election next year. So many trees wasted on books about democracy.   Some countries have big budgets for invading other countries ‘ to defend democracy’ but it is seldom practised in campaigning for elections.   Calling opponents names and printing flyers attacking each other is behaviour that will not be tolerated in kindergarten, but it is all legal, in campaigning.   It is irritating and such a let-down to the whole notion of democracy.   Grown-up men and women behaving like Grade One kids. It is also misleading because many voters believe it is real hatred.   Don’t let that fool you.   These politicians play golf together, attend the same dinner parties, eat and drink at the same social events, share jokes and cut deals in parliament.   They

Comfort Food As Regret Food

-

Chicken curry. Comfort food is good for the soul, which usually bleeds in winter from icy roads, bad drivers that want to annihilate pedestrians, frozen fingers and toes that take a sabbatical.   What happened to my toes?   I thought I was wearing special socks for boots? We therefore have a right to comfort food which throws doctors’ orders out of the window and has no loyalty to calories.   No calculator on the table, thanks very much.   Piece of bread 5 calories, half a banana 10 calories, sugar-free cheesecake 2,000 calories.   Ah! Ah!  We only live once. Naw!   Comfort food is old school food with its compulsory second helping.   It involves licking fingers and giving a big sigh, about the good life, which is shelter, food, love and debt.   The problem is the zip.   The jeans remind you that comfort food can also be called you will regret food .   Home sweet home is even sweeter in winter after surviving blowing snow and bumper to bumper traffic. What is more welcoming th

No Air Miles

I don’t have Air Miles.   I’m considering putting that on a T-Shirt because I cannot go to the drugstore (chemist) or coffee shop without the cashier asking me if I have air miles. We waited for about two minutes the other day, while this guy looked for his Air Miles card in his overweight wallet.   For what?   For a few points. I don’t have air miles because Mathematics is a foreign language.   I was never good in numbers. That is why I squashed the idea of being an investment banker very early in life.   I understand you can invest in cornfields before the soil is turned up or pork bellies even before a baby pig is born. That is how I view air miles, investing in tomorrow or the unknown.   I’m the dumb one.   Some people understand this air miles’ thing so well, I overheard one customer saying: I can even convert my points into cash. Points and air miles are the same thing in Canada and the U.S.   Drugstores or clothing stores even give you a card to collect point
