on redundancy

the things we learn while working as information technology (it) journalist. for businesses, redundancy is a very positive thing: if a system is redundant, it means that it can recover faster in case of failure. redundancy is a way of backing-up, a way of getting things back on track if somehow they left it. and yet common sense tells us that redundancy is a bad thing - if one says something that is qualified as redundant, it means that one is repeating oneself, adding nothing useful, and could probably be quiet that no one would notice. i dare say, if one is redundant, one is irrelevant.

it's a shame, actually, that i'm not an ordinary it system, but a person - and redundancy will slowly kill me by making me meaningless. again.
