Didn't get the reference until I read that.
That was an interesting photo viewer, wasn't it?

If you bought a PC with a DVD drive between April 1st 2003 and December 31st 2008, you’ll be able to claim $10 for each drive as part of the class-action lawsuit. "We're in the money!"

So they're buying names, addresses, and other personal details for $10 a pop?
They must have major advertising campaigns coming up in those regions in August.

Why?
Have they implemented a new ad-server, which isn't backward compatible?

I guess it would be more cost/resource effective to maintain one version (latest) of the software.

Ah.
A modicum of research shows that all data is stored in their cloud.
It's a really generous, open-handed* offer, then.

Knowing what reports people generate is probably valuable, so encouraging them to create more reports is ultimately more cost effective than limiting them.

Loosing your mojo is traumatic for everyone, but when it happens to your dev team, it might seem like Dr. Evil has got the best of you. Unfortunately, too many tech teams (and their leaders) start looking for a solution in the wrong places. "The beatings will continue until morale improves"

This particular mis-spelling may be intentional, for some reason it seems particularly common on various social media right now. Yugely sad.

Start by paying them more than 8€/hour. Then don't leave them in a 50 people noisy open space. When urgency is needed, pay for overtimes. Don't be exceedingly strict on the timings for lunch and allow pauses. Give them decent equipment and not machines that were old 5 years ago.
That would improve quite a lot.

Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.
