I’d go as far as Windows 2000. This new XP crap is too shiny, and why did they hide the controls?

I would like to point out its not even we. Its upper management and ‘the stockholders’. Everyone from the peon to lower management knows that people don’t work continuously for their shift. I doubt anyone can work continuously for that long and not go crazy.
But the reward from mid and management and above for completing your work is more work. Which is great for them since you completing more work means they get bonuses.
Don’t comment what a line is doing. Instead, write your code, especially names for variables, constants, classes, functions, methods and so on, so that they produce talking code that needs no comments.
Over and over and over again in my experience this just doesn’t work. Readable code does not substitute for comments about what the code should be doing.
Seconding this, I can’t think of a time that I’ve actually had windows respect my configured update window.
I’d also like to point out how annoying it is that manually hitting the update button doesn’t seem to do anything. If I hit the button I want to dedicate the full system resources to updating right now, not just keep doing what it was doing but add a skinny thing.
Wait, isn’t that obvious? Its for Elise!
Strong disagree, under DST I get to experience some sunlight in then evenings. Under Standard time I get to watch the sun come up through the window and set through the window.
Not just melted, the rock is first dissolved and distilled. Then it is melted.
Yes, because free market capitalism has been working out great.
Maybe its not because of assholes? Maybe its because the comment is objectively wrong?
Neither my gas water heater, or gas furnace work during a power outage. As another commenter said they both have electronic controls.
Except, if I understand correctly they haven’t u-turned. They aren’t removing the language re encryption, just acknowledging that it isn’t enforceable. Yet.
Which I think its important to point out isn’t an endorsement. It means that we in the west should be doing everything we can to enforce our saftey standards on products sold in our countries, and if that isn’t possible then we should be bringing the manufacturing back onshore.
