I am sorry that I misread this, and hope you will accept my excuse.

I have told you that I am sorry that I read
- 100 Kelvin degrees as "Kelvin degrees" and not as "Kelvin". Why don't you accept that I am sorry for this misreading, and I regret it?

Fair enough. I thought your apology was taking the piss -- we have one bad apple in CP, so I'm always worried that more will turn.

I've known quite a few people with multiple degrees who couldn't be trusted to find their own ass with both hands and a map, so I'd have to say that "quantity does not imply quality"

That's why I don't use Fahrenheit, obviously.

One great Norwegian comic strip, Lunch (similar to but different from Dilbert) had a great strip not too long ago. A new employee meets one of the old, well known ones:
- I have lots of knowledge, but I am not very good at solving real problems...
- So where did you earn you Ph.D?
- I didn't say that I have a Ph.D.
- You sort of did...

Um ... Dilbert[^] did it ten days ago.

OOOps ... when I saw the Dilbert strip, I recognized it. I read "Lunch" and "Dilbert" side by side on the same web site, and this time I mixed them up. Sorry about that.
But the humour of "Lunch" is of a kind where this strip would fit very nicely in.

I had a cousin who had 5 Batchelors, 3 Masters and 2 Doctorates - he couldn't get a job for love nor money - not even in academia! He ended up editing his CV to only include a couple of relevant degrees and finally got employed!
I also interviewed a guy who had a PhD and was very keen that everyone knew that and thought that would get him the job automatically. He was very condescending to the two us conducting the interview until we mentioned that we both had PhDs as well! He didn't get the job - in fact, we hired a guy with a bit of relevant experience but no degree at all. He did very well.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

A thermometer is bi-polar; half the time it's hot and the other cold.

These mercurial debates over K vs. C Vs F for degrees are, just a pointless temperature tantrum and Rankine very low in my opinion

Why, yes, it does because it has gone to gradual school.

So it looks like the SSD drive was the EFI partition and the C drive, which had windows 10 on it.
The other disk had windows 7 on the D, and some data drives.
Running the recover partition manage, from Hierens boot CD (now efei and windows 10, as always, a really good tool), I had to re create a partition on the SSD for EFI, named it the C drive, and do the steps form here: Fix the MBR – Guide for Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10[^]
cd /d c:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\
Then type the bootrec command to repair the volume:
bootrec /fixboot
Type this command to recreate the BCD
bcdboot D:\Windows /l en-us /s C: /f ALL
It boots into windows 7 now, but of course windows 10 is lost (as if I care).
What is weird is how sometime on monday from shutting it down to tuesday morning the SSD got nuked.
Perhaps it is hardware failure, if it fails to boot again it looks like this is the case, but at least I know how to get it back anyway.

My SDD manufacturer (SanDisk) has a "SSD Dashboard" which gives details of the drive health status (99% life remaining in my case, and has been for several years)
It might be worth checking if yours does something similar?

most likely a w10 "update" 'fixing things up for you' - known issue on multi boot with 10 & updates.

I think it might have been a windows up date actually. There was a splurge of them on monday.
But to hose the SSD drive though, dear oh god!
