Not meaning to derail the thread, but ... What typo blew up the space shuttle? Challenger was lost when managers in a rush to launch overrode the recommendations of Thiokol engineers. Columbia was lost when a piece of insulation struck the leading edge of the left orbiter wing at launch and the risk to the shuttle was not recognized by those in charge.
Headline is incorrect; Rybelsus, an oral semaglutide, was approved in 2019. Maybe oral Wegovy is the first oral GLP-1 approved for obesity rather than diabetes.
Making a big spectacle of doing regular people work, and then normal employees having to go in and actually do it is very in line with my picture of a certain kind of manager. (Your story did not actually come off like this, I just found this a funny interpretation)
Yeah, it was certainly performative rather than actually serving the customer. My hope at the time was that the STARS knowledgebase would show itself to be slow and overloaded and Bill would realize that it was necessary to invest in upgrading it. Strangely it was faster than I had ever seen it, and it just happened to immediately come up with a plausible answer to Bill's query -- almost like it knew its master's hands were on the keyboard.

this is probably happening if you're viewing a note that has been deleted. since i had 10000+ notes created on the day it launched i set up a pg_cron batch to delete empty notes that are >30 min old.
if not, can you share the url you're seeing it on? thanks for letting me know!
