Pair programming with AI! This should be good for some laughs unless it also comes with built-in fart spray.

Two of the key enhancements we’ve made to IE mode—restoring IE COM object calls and implementing bidirectional cookie sharing—have been in direct response to customer feedback. We heard you preferred the web broken, so we left it in

My takeaway from the article. The last decade+ of IT Management at National Australia Bank should be permanently disbarred from being allowed to use or supervise the use of any technology more advanced than the thermostat used in a deep fryer or cooking surface.
Also everyone involved in approving their public shaming as an MS case study in companies who've spent the last decade being too incompetent to stop using IE should be banned from ever working in public relations as well.
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?

A seemingly widespread scam tries to get people to click on a phishing link contained in a text that appears to come from a target’s own number. The hacks are coming from inside the phone!
"Verizon is aware that bad actors are sending spam text messages to some customers which appear to come from the customers' own number" <- gosh, thank you Verizon. I thought it might be good actors.

Leaders have to make corporate culture as important as sales figures to win the talent war, according to remote CEOs. Always hold your pinkie finger out when debugging code
I jest - they don't debug

My company is all about that culture thing. We get free airplane rides to anywhere in the country when we purchase an airline ticket to that destination. Free food at the local restaurants when we buy ourselves a meal. The parking lot is lined with blacktop motionless treadmills which is equivalent to most gym memberships, and when we screw up big time, we earn lifetime company unpaid sabbaticals. I could go on, but I don't want to make anyone jealous.

The rest of the world says that companies that use brewers yeast have the best culture.

I wish my profile was AI-generated.
(LinkedIn was good at one point. Now it's mostly irritating. I mostly stay on to keep track of former colleagues.)

On Windows editions that support x86 emulation, there are two directories for program files. The C:\Program Files directory is for programs in the native system bitness, and the the C:\Program Files (x86) directory is for programs that run under the x86-32 emulator. One folder needs room for extra bits

It's actually an old old thing.

That article lost me at "emulated". On Intel and AMD processors, this is not an emulated mode. When Windows runs on other architectures both X86 and X64 are emulated.

I read it as (roughly) "Windows 32 emulation on a Windows 64 system". If you run a Windows VM on a Linux system, that is also sort of an emulation. With Win 32 vs. 64, I guess that it even more an emulation, as (almost) the complete set of 64 bit OS services is provided to 32 bit programs, making them appear as 32 bit services to the 32 bit program. Win 64 emulates Win 32.
Generally speaking, Raymond Chen is highly qualified, and you rarely catch him making mistakes. This, combined with his ability to explain even very complex issues in a way that you will understand - and often with humor and wit - makes it one of the most valuable technical blogs to follow for a Windows programmer.

Not all MFA is created equal, as script kiddies and elite hackers have shown recently. If you guessed, "rely on people being lazy", give yourself a pat on the back
If you're not too lazy to do that.

Microsoft is getting ready to make selecting a default browser in Windows 11 a lot simpler by adding a single-click 'Set default' option to the operating system. As long as you use your one-click to pick Edge, at least
