If they could get the knowing part down into negative values, say by using predictive demand analysis, and then scaling up the resources automatically by, say, spawning temporary VMs, they might avoid things going TITSUP in the first place making "data-driven policymaking" (*shudder*) for routine matters unnecessary.
@MJI. Personally, I'm worried about the construction of the heating element. There are some studies that show it can release nano-particles of metal into the vapour stream, and there are other studies which show the damage that these nano-particles can do to neuronal cells. Of course, the same can be said for internal combustion engine exhaust, and a dozen other environmental pollutants, but it's a game that only time will tell. I know they are far less harmful than tobacco, or at the very least equally harmful but in a different way. I don't smoke or vape. If I did vape, I'd be using one that has the element enclosed in a ceramic capsule.
I was more making the point...
"Why should we employ you?"
"My IT skills are the best in the business."
"We... err... we couldn't find any trace of you on the web. HR likes to do a bit of background research on prospective employees. No Skype, no Twitter, no Facebook, no CV on Monster, not even a LinkedIN profile."
*confident shrug* "Like I said..."
"You're HIRED!"
I didn't down vote you but I expect it's possible to fix the WiFi card issue, especially if you have a wired connection. I always offer it to the people who come to me complaining about a malicious Windows 10 upgrade that's broken their WiFi. Invariably they've said "No, just roll it back to Windows 7".
