If the invisible man married the invisible woman, would their kids be nothing to look at?

Personally, I don't know what they saw in each other!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

No, but difficult to see them succeed in life

None of them seem to maintain any visible means of support.

Well, I can't say I saw that coming. Clearly, though, if one of the parents has a gender change, that would be the transparent.

Well, if there was something to see, you would most likely be able to observe from the point of conception onward. A whole life lived in the light of day...

Probably - but it wouldn't cast a shadow on the whole family now would it?
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.
I am absolutely certain I don't want to live in a world in which you would never be offended.

In response to this post a couple down:
We fall in love lust with the outer appearances of some newfangled technology.
We have a great time with all the new experiences and cool things we do together.
We sprint into a committed relationship.
Then we start to spend "resources" (time and money) on dependencies, tool upgrades, etc.
Any formal training is either non-existent or too expensive.
We start to formalize procedures and policies.
Then we get completely married to the technology even though we are starting to have doubts.
Child applications show up and the software gets more complicated and interdependent.
Soon after, we meet some new technology and have an affair.
Next, we're heading to divorce court.

Are in-laws the scrum masters in this analogy?

Divorce lawyers.

I'd rather have in-laws. Mine are more like out-laws.

Often it's worse, as in:
WeSales/Marketing falls in love lust with the outer appearances of some newfangled technology and arranges the marriage to us...
and when the next new thing comes along, they marry that to us as well.
(yes, polygamy - sales/marketing subscribes to the l.ron.hubbard/mormon version of 'the art of war', suits and all.)
and just when you think they've forgotten one of your earlier partners, they remind us that were still married to it. nothing is forgotten, nothing is off-limits (except independent thought).

Work is screwing around with technology ... meh that's too much fun to be true.

| Sometimes, members of management need to be re-educated in what the in-house IT does for them. Depending upon what you do (or where I am, the two of us do) you could be in the position of saying:
'At this moment in time, your entire operation depends upon my good will to keep things running."

Is it good will, or are you paid for it?

Given that there's at least the possibility of changing jobs (or even careers), I'd say it's a mix of both.

Not the direction I was coming from -
It's that some of them, for a short while, thought it would be best to get rid of IT and use outside contractors. Someone, in the background, reawakened them to the facts that not only does our stuff work better, but we're more responsive to changes. And they have their face in our stuff almost all day long, keeping the company running.
It's like the the old Chinese fable about the body rebelling against the stomach because they didn't think it contributed to the person - so they stopped feeding it . . . .
