The first half sounds so true to me. Like it was an intern that really wanted a replica set, but instead of using the same platform the company was using, hacked together something running on Linux. Ofc they didn’t tell anyone how it worked, and everyone else knew windows server so no one poked it.

It used to be running on a spare pentium 4, but was virtualized as no one knew why things stopped working when it was turned off

Hey it’s getting better! They recently worked hard for months to add the very niche and almost never used feature of adding a shared mailbox’s folder to your favourites! I mean, with features like that you should expect the dev time to be long.

It’s less of a main, and more of a “don’t do this if being imported.” You can just throw code without that block and it will run.

Sounds like it’s perfectly replicated the help forums it was trained on.

I don’t think that many people want to buy Windows Enterprise, which they typically want you to also buy a support contract for.

Unless you pirated it, but I don’t think telling people to “just run this pirate code” is that good of an idea.

Iirc, if you use a non-linear scale, it comes out properly as his face.

The invention of ssds was not to speed up computers, but to allow us to have more unwanted stuff autostart.

Was the auto complete in visual studio not a “trained” set before the llm craze kicked off? Would not surprise me if they decided to include that.

Ui team probably not connected to milage cheating team. This is the kind of thing you can’t do test cases for, so unexpected “bugs” will get out.

No, no ,no. You roll out a wildly overreaching implementation so everyone one is upset, that way you can release a just mostly overreaching version and everyone thinks it’s better than what you tried last time.

The one that I think more people misunderstand is temperature Vs heat Vs something feeling hot/cold. One is a property, one is energy, and the other is the transfer of energy.

It really good for people who don’t have, or want, a gaming pc. It gives them the small footprint of a handheld, without being locked to a console platform.

That might not rule out hidden variables, the position of the lever should be determined by the polarisation of photons from the other side of the universe. That way you can at least rule out local variables.

Office is not supported on those platforms at all so won’t make a difference to your support.

Use parameters, that way data and queries are separate.

I don’t think that does an actual rewite point. A lot of the localisation features were done using file explorer. You can even “localise” folders yourself using custom desktop.ini files. But those changes only showed in file explorer.

Now email! In exchange the standard folders such as inbox are localised, but don’t have a fixed alias. So if doing administration you need to know the language of a mailbox to know the name of say the Calendar folder, so you can update permissions.

I still use the full screen tab groups feature that they removed from the core. I don’t like scrolling tabs, so I can just hit a button and click on the exact tab I want. I do probably have too many tabs open tbh.

I never had a blackberry, but gained a hatred of them. Not for anything the phone was, but at how bad at software they were. The blackberry software to allow them to read emails from the company mail server was an over bloated, buggy and slow POS. It would forever break and the solution was always to remove and re-add it which would take a day and disrupt email for everyone.

But some CEO “needed” to use a blackberry as it looked corporate.

If my isp would support ipv6, that would be great!

Winamp dumping a bunch or proprietary information on GitHub is a good example of this.
