schestowitz[TR2]"I grabbed screenshots of everything. You should too before you post anything because they're going to lock this down. Just lots of good proof that they know him and were close enough to hangout with him during the destination Italian wedding. Maybe do a WGet if Flickr allows it.Aug 28 03:12
schestowitz[TR2]It's funny Stephanie liked him enough to take pictures with. He didn't seem to like her and said she "makes art nouveau her entire personality." I like the dress, but it's kind of a dead giveaway that it's true.Aug 28 03:12
schestowitz[TR2]I have more of an issue with all the National Geographic-style poverty tourism photos. I can say with a great deal of certainty because I was a photography major in college at this exact moment in 2009. I was aware and critical of how demeaning that style of photography is and was quite vocal about it with people I knew that went on "mission trips" and came back with photos like that.Aug 28 03:12

schestowitz[TR2]1tpe 3 very fair questionsAug 28 16:19
schestowitz[TR2]    Remember China and India started investing in education for at least 40 years (2 generations) China’s demographics 1.2 billion going to 700 million over the next 20 years favors labor inflation. Indias demographics 1.3 billion staying stable or growing over the next 20 years favors labor commoditization. As such Africa’s educated workforce (whose entire continent population is less than China or India) will inflate as they Aug 28 16:19
schestowitz[TR2]modernize. This nets out to India winning the labor war as they will keep suppling needed labor.Aug 28 16:19
schestowitz[TR2]    A rebound will not backfire on IBM. Kyndryl proved that keeping on shore workforce population in the 8-10% of worldwide total work force is profitable and stable. IBM is now in the process of implementing that model. There is no going back IBM will downsize USA and Northern Europe for offshore labor. The Internet is the great equalizer when it comes to commoditizing labor.Aug 28 16:19
schestowitz[TR2]    Yes something will replace the mainframe, BUT not in our lifetimes. Why? Because IBM is a monopoly when it comes to mainframe and they have already proposed two replacements A LINUX mainframe, and a quantum computer. If something else comes along, IBM will just lower the price of the mainframe HW and make it up with the SW and consulting division. Aren’t monopolies fun. Everyone has predicted the death of the mainframe since Aug 28 16:19
schestowitz[TR2]the 1980’s, and it hasn’t happened. Why? Because IBM makes it cheaper to keep it, vs the risk of switchingAug 28 16:19
