Interrupts are disabled when the processor acknowleges an interrupt and are reenabled when you return from the interrupt routine. Threads would be great, but the processor does not support them. I would need some kind of timer interrupt to schedule and switch threads. This is becoming circular.

Otherwise known as "stack overflow" Yup, that about sums up the complexity of interrupts. Simple concept, yet probably where a good 50% (if not more) of my debugging would go into when I used to write assembly.

I suppose then you also have the robe, pointy hat, eat a lot and never bathe.

Ah, but on Discworld only he Archchancellor bathed (even then a few times only),
and that worried the rest of the wizards a great deal.

I dunno - I think there are quite a few in QA!

I assume that "too close" means, maybe, twenty light years or so?

10 years experience with Azure? Given it hasn't been out for 10 years I guess they're looking for someone involved in its actual development.

Nah, they are looking for a time traveler.

Well ... Azure was announced in Oct 2008, but no, it wasn't released till 2010.
Plus, I'm guessing that if you had ten years of solid experience in all of those, you probably retured twenty years ago...
I'm guessing they are trying to trap time travellers.

Generally, if I have ten years of experience in something, I don't want to continue doing it.

Well, given that MS Dynamics didn't even become available until 2012, it will be another few years before anyone can fill the position.

Not so, I got my MCSE in Dynamics in 2008. In fact I wouldn't be far off meeting all these requirements - if I hadn't retired 5 years ago

another point that irks me on this "10 years experience" is given updates and enhancements what you were doing/how you were doing it 10 years ago in a particular product is generally not relevant.
(Then again many often ask for that 10 years experience to be in the 'latest version' too - i.e. '10 years experience in c# 7.0'.)
would it not be more fitting to say "a major role involving X [and Y and Z] within the last 2 years." An old guy I know drove a heavy truck for 10 years, that was 40 years ago, I'm sure he could manage but I doubt he would be comfortable with today's rigs (and I would prefer to be on the other side of the country if he tried.)
