Just as I expected how security in Microsoft products works.

I’m a lifelong fan of LEGO, but there are products the world does not need at all. This is one of them.

I was chasing a bug. Complete showstopper for a new system in which we had invested a lot to be the next big thing. And the responsibility lay with me.

I wrecked my brain on the two weeks towards Christmas trying to get it stable. I tried every trick in the book. I tried some more things after Christmas. Nothing, absolutely nothing made the system any better. I started to get anxiety attacks and breakdowns. I cried at work. Four weeks of bug hunting, and still no idea what actually went wrong.

In the end, it turned out to be a crazy hardware issue, something I could not fix in any way with software. One part for a tenth of a cent changed on each board, and the system ran like a charm.

Boss gave me the rest of the week off to recover.

Of course they deny that AI is a bubble. Like real estate speculants deny the housing market being a bubble. It simply would be an admission of failure.

Arena: Am I nothing to you?

Good, best time to curb its use.

Isn’t this Bluetooth based? Are you aware that BT has a range of about 10m? You’ll need thousands of hops to come even close to a border where there is a path to the world…

Thank goodness people only have two hands…

Waiting for the Firefox version of this.

Didn’t distract Steam from succeeding here.

I’m surprised that they are still trying to beat that dead horse at all. Haven’t they burned billions on it already, without chances of returns?

The picture is not entirely correct.

First, the windows tank if full of holes, with new ones drilled every day, and Linux is not just an emergency fix.

Sounds like an unholy wedding of AI and privacy nightmare to me.

My red line is easy. No windows on my computers. That rule stands since before my first kid was born, and she is by now finishing university…

Mostly, those calm cool smart heads were decidedly not the politicians.

Zsh? That’s a command shell I have not heard of for a very long time.

Check the date on his computer, is it also set to something in the 1980s?

It has not done enough damage if it is still promoted.

Wasn’t it bad enough, already? Did they already exhaust all other ways to make it worse?

He is also, obviously, an idiot.
