What gets me is that you could have hired three 16-year-old kids to write the App-code, $2k each, and in 90 days....you would have had a simple program that worked. You haul in 90 12-year old kids to do a test-run for a whole day....each making up numbers and inputting the data into the App, and then have some audit team just verify the results. This is simply not rocket-science.
I’m not buying into any part of this story. I don’t think it was ever tested. I don’t think it was even written as an App within the US or by American coders.
The harsh reality here is that they gave Trump at least two major ad’s for the fall election, and it makes this episode look like chimps were hired to write the code, and chimps hired to produce the data. Chimp - in, Chimp - out.
IMHO, it has much to do, AGAIN, with scamming someone (in their own party) for millions. You know, like the billions spent on a flawed server back when Hitlery was running. I say, follow the money!
You said it a whole lot better than I did...see #17.
That needs a metric to compare against (Gropey J. gets a certain percent +/-, Booty-Gig gets his % +/-, Runs-With-Ratz gets hers...etc).
The actual input data did not fit the assumptions and set off alarm bells, as designed.
The DNC pulled the plug until the news cycle could move on.
