That's what money market funds do. But they're almost always run conservatively, whereas many stablecoins are run by people who aren't professional investors and are at far greater risk of blowing up--if they're not outright frauds.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming βWow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

Project Management Humor!
Top 10 Reasons NOT to Use Project Management
(With apologies to David Letterman)
10. Our customers really love us, so they don't care if our products are late and don't work.
9. Organizing to manage projects isn't compatible with our culture, and the last thing we need around this place is change.
8. All our projects are easy, and they don't have cost, schedule, and technical risks anyway.
7. We aren't smart enough to implement project management without stifling creativity and offending our technical geniuses.
6. We might have to understand our customers' requirements and document a lot of stuff, and that is such a bother.
5. Project management requires integrity and courage, so they would have to pay me extra.
4. Our bosses won't provide the support needed for project management; they want us to get better results through magic.
3. We'd have to apply project management blindly to all projects regardless of size and complexity, and that would be stupid.
2. I know there is a well-developed project management body of knowledge, but I can't find it under this mess on my desk.
1. We figure it's more profitable to have 50% overruns than to spend 10% on project management to fix them.

I prefer the quote by Sir John Harvey-Jones.
Planning is an unnatural process; it is much more fun to do something.
The nicest thing about not planning is that failure comes as a complete
surprise, rather than being preceded by a period of worry and depression.

I actually worked at a place where the directors / whatever got a bonus depending on the size of the project.
I was naive enough (not knowing of that perk) to suggest multiple deliverables that the user could use sooner.
He F'd me off in an open office environment.
That same guy made me expand reports by changing the layout because he did not understand / know you could change the fonts on laser printers to something smaller.

CAVS - Dancin Tony In Cuba 1959[^]
I found this one while Spotify was shuffling.
Never heard of them before.
Pretty funky, turns out their entire album is just percussion.
Couldn't find much about them, but looking further I found out this is a band by Michael Cavanagh (I'm guessing CAVS is short for Cavanagh), drummer of King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.
Where King Gizzard is mainly psychedelic/stoner rock, CAVS is pretty funky percussion.
From Australia.
Sound of the week!

My daughter put me onto King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - nonagon infinity[^].
Interesting concept, the end of each song leads into the start of the next one, and the end of the last song goes straight into the start of the first song.

Nice one.
A friend of mine is into King Gizzard, so I know them a bit.
I'm not a fan, but this one is nice.

I've heard that before.
For example, Meshuggah's Catch 33 has the same.
It's basically a single song split up into smaller sections.

Now that's cool!

I read rnbergrens post below on PowerBI and wondered what alternatives there are?
We have a couple of legacy application at my company that creates reports using SSRS.
We need a new application that uses SSAS for the data, and the obvious choice for our management is PowerBI.
I have never worked with it, so my personal choice would be Devexpress just because of impressive support.
But what else is around? And why would you recommend it.
BTW, is SSRS still a viable choice?
And no, Crystal Reports is NOT a choice.
