    Is anyone else seeing an ad “learn data science”? Under this article for the IT director going to jail?

      I have “Miracle Woman’s Minimizer Bikinis”. I guess that means Google thinks I already know enough about data science and should go out more often. 😀

    Considering his surname, one can only imagine the playground issues he must have had growing up, so perhaps we should cut him some slack. :-/

    Looks like Harrison Parrot is having scandal after scandal!

    Yawn. This sort of thing is fairly common. Could happen anywhere there’s an IT department, rarely has much to do with the company’s line of work. From the headline you might think the chap was some sort of mover and shaker in the biz, but that’s not even remotely true.

    Let’s hope he is not related to Shauna Hoare.
