      Car just jumped the curb and drove through pedestrians in Times Square, NYC.

      While bad, it happens often enough due to various no fault causes.

      Will wait and see if intentional or not before jumping to conclusions.

      Same, Cuomo is enroute to the scene..

        At least one person is reported dead. Pretty good numbers for how many could easily have been obviously already dead in such a crowded location.

          Preliminary reports indicate that this wasn't a terror attack.

            Was it a Floridian?

                                Lots of companies at VeeamOn this week were discussing how weird it is that IBM even still exists. No one knows what they do any more and a large number of newbies in the field literally don't know who they are at this point.

                                  That's crazy to me. I don't know if it's the area I grew up in or what but I was aware of what IBM is/was when I was younger.

                                    Yeah. Because they were still active when you were younger. We all knew them when we were young. But now to most people they are the company that "used to make computers". Even IT people rarely know what they make today.

                                        I've been reading about the process for the past few weeks. It's interesting what had to be done to get this down.
