Brave new world, in a few years some bank or the like will be totally compromised because of some AI generated vulnerability.

That reminds me of Illiad’s UserFriendly where the non tech guy Stef creates a do_what_i_mean() function, and that goes poorly.

Started a friendship with a classmate, he was bit of a know-it-all, we were discussing some esoteric stuff and he laid out his theory I said “ah that’s BS”, and gave my reasons. Then he got very uptight and ended our friendship there and then, and escorted me out of his apartment.

I read it as a “wish for people to get fed up with windows” comment, and not a “windows users are nazis” comment.

And the more corporate the organisation the more rules, at least the places I have worked trusts developers enough to give local admin, that takes the edge off many tasks.

I expect they compile it like this:

g++ HelloWorld.docx.cpp -o hello.exe

In this case both wins, Italy gets a cut and Spain gets to sell their oil.

The only loses is us consumers.

Regarding olives, my favorite are Kalamata from Greece.

I prefer the multi thread problems that can be solved using queues.

Speaking of the 80s I got a C64 and a friend let me copy a few 90 minute tapes with a bunch of games.
