Yeah except that it’s literally called .NET, pronounced dot net, they included a punctuation symbol in the name. Is it a programming language for the web, nope. So why’s it called that?

6·1 day agoHonestly it probably worse if he was competent. Imagine how dangerous the administration would be if they could actually use the FBI to its fullest extent. It’s probably better that you’re stuck with this international laughing stock.

9·1 day agoAnytime anyone calls up to get their password reset the standard joke is to always ask them if they’re sure they haven’t been fired.

11·1 day agoWell yeah, it’s not defamation if it’s true.
Also there’s Rufus
There really is no drama like programming language drama.
It’s called Windows app on Windows now as well. But they also have remote desktop still, and they’re not intercompatible.
Microsoft truly are terrible at naming things. They always have been. Remember XBone?

1·2 days agoI don’t think there should be an age limit but I don’t think it’s unreasonable beyond a certain age to require people to prove cognitive function. There are many countries in the world where they do that for driving tests which seems perfectly reasonable.
That’s when you go all technology noob on them and ask them to guide you how to pay them.

3·2 days agoIn my company it’s like 10 days because they use this really awful third party HR company who are incredibly slow at passing the message along.
One time I was off sick for 3 days with food poisoning and I told them about it on the first day but they didn’t pass the message along until after I’d already got back. They called up told me I had food poisoning 5 days ago.

4·2 days agoThe risk of dementia goes upb with age but there are many many 70-year-olds wandering around who are still perfectly capable. In fact I would be willing to bet that the majority of 70-year-olds don’t have dementia.

45·2 days agoRegardless of whether or not he is actually dead, if he’s ill enough that it’s even a question, that surely must mean he isn’t doing his job.
Bows aren’t shot, not unless you’re doing it wrong. You shoot the arrow, the bow should stay in your hand.
I feel like this when hearing about “art of war”
“Have some sort of strategy”
“If at all possible have a larger army than the enemy”
“If step two is not possible, see step one”This is basically the whole book.

1·2 days agoTrump doesn’t care about them. Refusing extradition would only lead to bad press so he’s not going to do it.



I used to be a security guard, which is similar levels of undemanding. You try watching a bunch of black and white cameras all night, you get to the point where you go, oh look, a moth in genuine excitement.
