And how are you doing?

doing pretty well.

We are able to welcome back our most popular and most frequented guest here at Ask the Programmer.

You and I get to be the audience a little bit and get to answer some of the questions that are posed by our guest today.

He's none other than Dan Farisi,

group editor, commercial security with Emeralds.

And he's in charge of commercial integrator and security sales and integration.

Welcome back, Dan.

Thanks for being with us.

And I'm sure that your title also has expanded because I know you continue to grow and evolve and take on more responsibilities.

But we appreciate the time that you spend with us.

And we're glad to have you on the show.

And if you have heard Dan before, he was with us about a dozen times and most recently in episodes 236 and 237.

So check those and then you could

also rewind back to many more.

So thank you for being with us again, Dan.

So today, Dan is going to ask us some questions and help to moderate the conversation.

So I'll turn it over to you.

Yeah, I was interested to hear how James would take this because I think it's an easy argument for us because of our background to always say that centralized is the way to go because we're programmers.

Programmers like to be able to have the ability to perform and not minimize what we do and our livelihoods.
