Ah, the blessed quarterly accounting system strikes again...
Home Depot Inc. said it halted plans to open about 50 U.S. stores, some that have been in the pipeline for more than 10 years, and will close 15 underperforming stores as it cuts capital spending to improve returns.

About This Blog:
Integrating complex electronic projects requires industry individuals keep abreast of the latest technological trends.
Some things are important, many ironic, others outright frauds, and a few are just so very wrong. Occasionally the original technological goal and downstream results are in hilarious conflict.
Usually "the latest trends" go back fifty to one hundred years in their development and are only new to the uninformed. In most every case, the ancients have truly stolen our inventions!
As far as we know, this is the only place that collects them and lets you celebrate them for yourself. We'd love to hear from you if you have something we've missed!
