excellent opening keynote by Rami Ismail / رامي at #chiplay2022. learned a bit of Arabic, and that simple steps could already avoid disrespect to the language, if we only take them. Also that computing in general is still not doing a good job at anything but the Latin alphabet. In 2022!

Still trying to reconcile why and how this 2 hour, 40 minute on-hold call can be called service by Navy Federal Credit Union Navy Federal Help (esp for veterans + "veteran"-customers).

Unfortunately “KT,” I was told by one of your phone-based customer reps that calling me back is not allowed (despite this option being part of a Navy Federal Credit Union recorded message). Seems like Navy Federal Credit Union Security has become an ouroboros of itself.
