hanks for the kind words, I don't get many visitors...except my photos they seem to get quite a few hits.

For me it was the part in "contact me" and then especially the "2 tours ..." which attracted my attention. After this I started reading the other stuff

One of the revelations that has come about as a result of covid-19 is that data is not the new oil. So many people working from have realised that bandwidth is the new oil. Data is just the vehicle.

Which made me immediately associate to all those software developers grabbing every new language feature (or whatever feature) searching frenetically for some place to use it. The important thing is not solving a given problem more easily thanks to the new thing. What is important is to find some - no matter which one - code piece where they can display their mastery of this new feature. Who cares about solving problems? Having a long list of tools and techniques that you master is far more impressing on your CV that a varied list of actual real world problems you have solved during your programming career.

I just realised that I'm doing that right now. I have just started using extension methods and I'm trigger happy when it comes to using them.

Not sure I agree with that. I'd say that bandwidth is the pipeline. The bigger the pipeline the more oil/data you can transfer.
Soon, underprivileged will be defined by the amount of buffering one must endure for those precious cat videos or episodes of the masked singer.

I like you analogy. Kindly complete it for me.
Pipeline - Bandwidth
Oil - Data
Vehicles - ?
|
|
|
|

Hmmm...the pipeline moves the oil, the oil ultimately becomes fuel for a vehicle. The vehicle is the human interface. For data, the bandwidth is a characteristic of the network and the network(s) moves the data which ultimately is used by a device, possibly used by a human but not always. I suppose the receiving device might be considered the vehicle.

Agreed that the analogy is flawed. I have a slow connection (5mbps), but frankly I've learned to live with it, I don't stream video (or at least not HD) at the same time I'm downloading anything, and frankly there isn't much I can't do--the data gets around despite my lack of bandwidth. I believe last time I checked with my ISP I could get 15mbps, but honestly I have a hard time justifying the monthly price difference (and one-time upgrade fee, which is ridiculous because they don't have anything to do on their end except change settings through software to make it happen).

You should have tried to post it here[^]
This is not a discussion start point, that's a question.
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

There are fewer people in the check-out line marked "ten items, cash only," so you take your cart with twenty items and get in that line ?

The last year we have had an explosion of self-service checkout counters here in Norway. The only place where you see a line is in the manual counters, because most self-service lanes require you to pay by plastic. Even in those (few) self-service lanes where you can pay by cash, they require some proof-of-age if you want to buy beer. So for those of us who don't want our grocery (or beer) preferences to be tracked, so we don't want to pay by plastic, we'll have to accept waiting in line for the manual counters.
