In the Navy, we used the complete saying:
We the unwilling
Lead by the unknowing
Have done so much
With so little
For so long
We are now qualified to do anything with nothing

Yeah I believe you're right that was it.
Don't let your mind wander too far.
It's too small to be let out alone.

Blockchain Call – Stories of UNICEF Innovation
The UNICEF Innovation Fund is looking to make $50-90K equity-free investments to provide early stage (seed) finance to for-profit technology start-ups that have the potential to benefit humanity. We are currently looking to invest in a group of companies developing software solutions on open blockchains.
As an aside (and joke, lest someone wiser point out that that's not really what this list is for), I notice the US is missing from the list of "Programme Countries". I guess they've given up on us benefiting humanity.

Independent of past/current political situation in the US, the UN's Agencies are so often an insulting sham of their original purpose that donating to any of them is a mistake.
I'd hope some fine EU (or Asian) country would step up and offer to host the damn thing in their country.

Gee... dong blockchain research is a perfect fit for the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund 
As for the US not being a "programme country"... nor is Canada, Australia, UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, etc...
It's a charity. First world countries need not apply. Except China and India of course...

Did not need to. While the message that was displayed was not really helpful, it turned out that the EotD (Error of the Day) was no error at all. The user was denied access because of some weird settings and existing twice (!) in the database. You can't confuse my security functions with such simple tricks.
The only change concerned the message. Instead of some weird 'There has been an error' stuff, we now have something about 'access denied because of user settings', but that must not be deployed right away.

My duck-and-cover tactic:
My arrival at work precedes every else. I do the updates - and if they barf - I roll them back. No one's the wiser and the user-panic that would otherwise ensue is (usually!) averted.

And miss all the fun and the chance to wear your red cape (the one with the 'S') and rescue them?

If it is of my doing, a conical hat is more likely. And, of course, I still get to fix the damage.

The conical head hat is ok, but I always was a little suspicious of old men who run around in dresses.
Edit: Conical head?

Ah - if it only were so painless as a conical head.
In US, the conical hat (without foil) refers to this[^]
