    Two is One and One is None.

    Whenever I buy one thing for work, I buy a spare. Whenever I'm down to
    my last widget, I buy another before using it.

    Yesterday I was setting up for an important all-hands video meeting. At
    the last minute they decided they wanted a camera facing the room and
    another facing a local speaker. Originally, I was assured there wouldn't
    be a local speaker.

    Luckily, I had 2 webcams and 2 powered USB extension cables, and wired
    it up quickly.

    There's one exception - the office has 3 coffee makers - a Bunn office
    drip maker, Keurig and a Nespresso. I had nothing to do with that...

    Two is One and One is None.

    The same is true of basic computing.
