Trade Press Days

 Over several years I posted 'acerbic bonmots' - or heuristic learnings - I gained over 30+ years in the computer trade press.

Then Elon Musk bought Twitter and shut down the Trade Press Days Moments Page of @jackivaughan.

Herschel's Scope.


So starting again. As of 1.23.

-What ever we do will be doable.

-Expect Nothing. Blame no one. Do something. [via Vinny Testaverde]

-We don't have problems, we have issues. If we had problems, the day would be too long.

-You know the difference between theory and practice, right? In theory it works, in practice it doesn't.

-News is what happens when you're busy makig other plans. [variation of John Lennon]

-Stuff happens when you do a lot of stuff.

-A picture is worth 1,000 words, but two pictures are not worth 2,000 words.

-Journalism like life is gray. So We have guides, not rules.
