re: #137 Targetpractice

If you’re saying to yourself “How can any business not have fixed this problem in 20 years?,” think about it this way: The IRS couldn’t process electronic tax returns 2 years ago because the Rube Goldberg-esque interface built to allow modern-ish computers to interface with a computer built in the 1960s to handle all the nation’s tax information had a minor bug that the big-wigs decided wasn’t serious enough to pay the programmers to squash until the entire system went down.

Or, to put it another way, the major hotel chain I work with has thousands of hotels still using a Property Management System that looks like it was “new” when Reagan was in office.

It’s mostly head in the sand climate denial thinking
Nope not an issue, so no budget and we won’t do anything until there’s an ‘actual’ problem
