Well, today's the day when an unsolved (and a "solvable by me" type of) CCC appeared just after I checked the Lounge (refreshed the page, that is).

0, 2 & 4 aren't odd 
|
|
|
|
|
It's programming. 0 is the first element. So shift by 1. 
|
|
|
|
|
I'd say 0 was decidedly odd. Just ask a number theorist!

ok, I did not remember the acronym
(0()-|: (6 7 letters).
Hint: A wink and it's dark
Hint 2: It is related to THE eye.
Hint 3: Polyphemus
/edit, because the () looked like one sign only.
/edit, wrong amount of letters ! *facepalm*

Nope, but it is related to THE eye.

Cyclops

Yes. That was a lame one, especially with misspelling it first place (why cyclops when there is only one) .
You're up tomorrow (monday?), but that's what you wanted anyway  
|
|
|
|
|
Yes - having the wrong number of letters didn't help
PooperPig - Coming Soon
|
|
|
|

And my cyclops did not really look like one. The 0 meant to be the eye of the Tiger Cyclops.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Dunno, it's all Greek to me!*
Actually I thought it was Mike from Monsters Inc but I couldn't make it fit!
* Serious answer, the Greek root is actually circle eye (not single eye as you might imagine) and ops is eye in Greek (not a language that use s for plurals).

What a coincidence. Just a few days ago we had our Tax Freedom Day[^]
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

We submitted an entry for some contest hosted by a company.
(uhh, excuse the anonymity overdose - I don't want to bash such a big company in public, considering the other BIG good sides of them in mind, and moreover these contests are outsourced these days)
Some bad UX:
 A contest entry getting accepted without an ACK being sent back to the registered email.
They asked us to register, but there was no login screen. Registration & Submission screens were there, Submission form lets do submit directly. I don't know if someone else in the team registered before with the same ID. But the workflow is totally clueless.
We can't login and see what we submitted.
And through out the site there was 0 email IDs for contact.
No discussion forums.
Just a FAQ section that felt like read it or go **** yourselves if you got more question .
"Contact us" was a dummy link that took the conglomerate parent site, that would give a sh*t to answer you contest related questions.
There was no picture of beautiful ladies doing any kind of support
How pooor! 
I've seen CP contests & the way things are arranged, but still people had some complains here and there. Looking at the mess happening around, what CP does as contest feels like luxury.
After all, we got Chris, the 911!
(I got old, ignore the typos, if there were any)

I've just hit my first stumbling block on Windows 10. I wanted Remote Connection (to access a Raspberry Pi). So to download the free app, I have to create a Microsoft Account. Why do I need an account to get something that is free? Fortunately, I had the prescience of mind to create a new pretend email address and autoforward it to a real email address rather than using my usual one.
But when I next reboot the PC I get a strange screen - it turns out, I now have to log on to start my own PC; I've never logged on before. My boot up process was 1) Switch on; now it is 1) Switch on, 2) Wait for logon page, 3) Enter password. And the really bad thing is that the password turned out to be the one that I had set for the Microsoft Account. So, MS knows the password to start my PC. How insecure is that?

You can remove the Microsoft account from windows[^].

Likely they don't "know" the actual password, but rather some one-way-hash of it. Windows likely then does the same one-way-hash of your entered password and authenticates with that.
Local windows passwords do the same. Logging into most web-based email systems (like hotmail, gmail, outlook, etc) do the same.
Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell
