The DoD's handles software projects pretty badly. I don't even know where to start with describing the problems.

I remember - 1978, General Dynamics, GDBASIC, HP RTE III, MX21xx minicomputers. It never got any better, though it got a lot more expensive over the years.

Can any salad be a Caesar Salad, if you stab it enough times?

not sure I would die for a salad,
vegetables aren't real food anyway.
these days with more mouths to feed and less land to grow stuff need to economise,
get more value from each meal, so:
1. feed the salad to a cow
2. eat the cow
-> 1 salad fed 2, and both got a proper meal. (cows are herbivores so salad is fine for it.)

Plus, "you are what you eat" - which means that steak counts as a salad, and as one of your "five a day".

I claim to be a vegetarian by proxy. I only eat animals that eat vegetables.

I think this might be a repeat. Anyway.
Why is a Caesar salad not made with laurel leaves?

How many hours per day (or per week) would you say are working/focused on a computer screen? And does this spill over in to weekend hours?

Working 40 hours, other 25 hours...so 65 hours total.

More than enough for my poor little eyeballs.

No. Weekends are for living and sleeping.

34 hours per week for work.
At home on my own projects, 3 hours per night mon-fri and then another 11 hours each weekend.
60 hours per week on average.

Probably 16-18 hours per day, including weekends and holidays.
Because I love doing this shit.

I am inclined to agree with this number in terms of "focused" on a screen. I am including smartphone, video gaming, television, and just recreational computer use to browse information. Certainly not all of those hours are "working"; those hours aren't even because "it's fun." This is just modern life. Unless you're are hiking, driving, swimming, boating or fishing, odds are that you are looking at a screen. You'll notice I left out eating; it is getting very hard to find a restaurant without TVs!

rather asking how many hours u spend checking your phone would be more in touch with the times ..for working ...there are robots , ai etc ...

Checking my phone consumes a total of less than 1 minute per day.
I use about 5 minutes per day blocking numbers from unsolicited sales calls.

I was more interested in coding and writing articles / blogs.
I'm curious how I compare with others. I find as I'm getting older that my eyes and my back are less tolerant of the developer way of life.
When I was younger 60 to 70 hours was the norm. Now, around 35 hours, and my weekend backlog of personal projects doesn't seem to get touched.

About 14 hrs/day on weekdays and 12 hrs/day on most weekends.

anywhere from 0 - 20 hours a day 2 - 7 days a week depending on the mood.
less actual work if decided to binge watch some series. (wears out the old eyeballs, none left for work.)
... reminds me, haven't done the last GOT yet.
