Mine is on top right now. Not that I like it much to be there but I have to put it there as my second monitor ( 27 inch curved Samsung ) stubbornly refuses to show the bottom couple of lines so that I can't see which applications are open.
I have not found any way to cure that, maybe someone here has an idea/suggestion?

right side. The furtherest away from where ones eyes start. I can also put so much more information there and have so many more windows open.
Also, on servers that I am on on occasion I leave it on the bottom. On certain servers I might move it to the left as a visual clue to myself where I might be.
Really works well for me.
Small Icons, descriptive words and on the right. Best choice I ever made.

How many of you - as developers - are taken aback by the revelations concerning the state of Dominion Voting Systems?
Why would any self-respecting developer agree to write code in such a way as to allow subversion of its targeted purpose?
What retard decided that storing vote counts as floating point numbers was a "good idea"? ANYBODY that's been a developer for any length of time knows damn well that when you do math with floating point numbers, the result is an *approximation*. and is therefore not accurate.
Even more importantly, why would anyone use software that was demonstrably accuracy-challenged and so easily corrupted?

Ask that question to:
Diesel VW drivers
Boeing 737 Max pilots
UK government scientists(it's well worth reading the code review on Neil Ferguson's model[^])

The users want the cheapest product.
The developers know how to find QA.

Well, everyone knows that an int can only go up to 32,767 so you have to use a float to count higher!

A max int has been 2,147,483,647 since BEFORE dominion wrote their software. There are significantly fewer than 2 billion voters in the entire U.S.. There is *no excuse* for using a floating point value.

It may have depended on the outcome the developer wanted - a disputable result!

Errors can at times be the hardest thing to get right. Any fool can insert a bug accidentally.

I wonder if the code was originally designed for a different purpose and was "re-used" in the voting machines.
Several layers of wrongness here.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

The developers didn't have enough fingers and toes so...
I'm not sure how many cookies it makes to be happy, but so far it's not 27.

I think the developers have entirely too many fingers ...

Yes. Dominion's software has been a problem since before 2012.

Not at all. All you have to do is a simple google search.
