That wasn’t true for either Clinton or Harris, the only two women to run for President for a major party AFAIK. It also true for Palin, who was a Vice Presidential candidate (so next in line for President).

The fact that all you saw was a woman running may say something about your information sources?

Ah, the Gilead option…

Also, any non-trivial system has failure modes that are not binary. Like, if your convertible car has the roof stuck down you can drive it, but you will be sad if it rains. So, is the car “up” or not? Similarly, if your site has writes offline for a database upgrade, but reads work fine, is it “up”?

The concept is just advertising and something that makes sense to senior management, but provides no actual useful metrics.

I have a friend here in the Netherlands who blames leftist policies on all problems here, in spite of us having right-wing governments for 20+ years. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ELI5 please?
