Nah, I just like to feel like I'm doing this for a reason. Shouting to the clouds isn't my kind of thing.
I wonder if I could convince Chris to switch over to a "per click" model. Cat pictures and listicles forEVAH!
Ugh, no. I couldn't do that to myself.

In what is being called a productivity enhancement, Microsoft is testing a change to the Windows 10 Alt+Tab feature so that it also shows open Microsoft Edge browser tabs. Well, it is "Alt+Tab", not "Alt+Program"
It's going to take me a while to get though all these tabs just to get back to Freecell

|
|
Why? Why?... Just why?
If I want to do that I use "Alt+Tab" to go to Browser and the "CTRL+Tab" to change the tabs...
Someone to yell them to stop doing idiot "improvements" and get the damned bugs fixed (and not at the cost of introducing new ones, please)

Many have called iOS14 the Windows Vista of iPhone operating systems, as the OS is constantly informing users or asking permission for various trivial things apps want to do in the background. And the problem is?

Single sign-on systems (SSOs) allow us to login to multiple websites and applications using a single username and password combination. And I'm sure it will never, ever be cracked, MitMed, or otherwise thwarted

So... after years telling us that we have to avoid reuse and have a password for each site... now, this?
Oh, C'mon...

Code says what it does. That's important for the computer, because code is the way that we ask the computer to do something. Deep, duuuuuuude

Quote: Our code reviews, simworld tests, and design meetings frequently referred back to the TLA+ models of our protocols to resolve ambiguities in Java code or written communication.
I'm pretty sure that adding another Three Letter Acronym to the project jargon doesn't actually help anything except perhaps the employment of the person who's stuck updating the acronym table in every formal document in a product.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
