ESSE I CEO Operating System update – Version 54.X

As every year, our CEO, Massimiliano Aiello, has successfully installed the latest update of his Operating System.
The upgrade went well... more or less.

After hours of debugging, the IT team found that:

  • Memory is full of precious data (but more and more RAM is needed to remember where it was saved).
  • Some legacy functions have been kept "for sentimental reasons", even though nobody knows what they are for any more.
  • Compatibility with new generations of developers has improved... except when they speak in acronyms.
  • The built-in voice assistant works, but answers sarcastically after 6 pm.

We tried to consult the CEO's user manual, but it seems it was never released.
Every version appears to be distributed "as is", with documented bugs but also extraordinarily unpredictable new features.

Despite everything, our Managing Director keeps running the system with the same efficiency (and irony) as ever:
an experienced, stable and robust professional, even if every now and then he needs a reboot with a double espresso.

Expectations for this latest release were quite high, but unfortunately:

Debugging continues... but this is exactly what makes our company lively, innovative and, let's say it, humanly perfect in its imperfection, because in the end even the best systems run on a pinch of humanity and plenty of well-written code.

Happy birthday, Massimiliano!
