Before what?
Codeproject Lounge is the most stable costant in my browser. Before, now and for many years to come (I hope at least)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Musk buys Code Project and promptly fires all authors then wonders why that didn't improve profits, renames all articles as authored by himself, and only VB and JavaScript articles can be posted in the future because languages like C# and TypeScript are considered too liberal. Kent can only post news about SpaceX and Tesla. Chris hitches a ride with Bob to another planet. (Apologies to the other people at Code Project that I have ignored here. You get fired and then rehired and expected to work 24/7, so bring your energy drinks and kiss your spouse and kids goodbye!)

No, just no.

You missed a few steps…
First Chris deletes all articles in languages other than C# and Typescript because they’re too conservative. Anybody who even thinks about complaining is called a fascist and banned. Then he hires 8000 employees that do next to nothing all day except complain about the people being banned. Kent is only allowed to post what has been previously worked out with the US DOJ.

Seriously, is there a worse email client? I wish I was joking. Even without providing any specifics, I'm wondering how many would agree with this blanket statement...
As a software developer, if this is the type of app Microsoft wants to encourage me to write, then they shouldn't be surprised that WinForms is still my target platform of choice.
I realize not every one spends a lot of time "doing email" in 2022, but still, this should be considered a go-to app in their flagship OS. It honestly feels like they're not even trying.

I used to always used another one (whichs also support newsnet) forgot about it now...
But then Outlook slowly took over!

It's worse than the old Windows Live Mail/Outlook Express.

WLM is a work of art in comparison. I had one of my neighbors hooked on it until MS deliberately broke it in some Windows 10 update not too long ago. I'd probably reinstall it myself otherwise.
I mean, I have the full-blown Outlook that I keep to archive my email, but on my primary desktop, I just want something that's ridiculously lightweight and quick and can notify me when something new has arrived, view it, and then let me decide whether to leave it there (to be archived later in Outlook) or delete it immediately. A few months ago I pondered writing my own, leveraging MS's Graph API, but that apparently doesn't work for Hotmail - only corporate accounts.
The built-in client is barely tolerable to do just that. But the quirks are eventually gonna push me over the edge.

We got a new doggie (1.5 year old fox terrier mix) to keep the cat company (9 mos).
I kept them apart for 3 days, thinking I was doing the cat a favor.
Decided to finally ignore them and the cat is now chasing the dog, and the dog wants to hide on my lap.

They'll be at each other until they figure out alpha order, then it'll be calm sailing!

Sounds like the cat has already established the Alpha role ...

That's pretty common.
I had a Great Dane, long ago and a cat. We had the cat first so the GD grew up with the cat.
The cat established territory very quickly and they got along famously.

We adopted a male greyhound (Bacchus) and then a female (Hera) in short order (the male needed a pack buddy). We already had a senior female cat (Canada).
Bacchus sniffed at the cat once, she walloped him across the snout, and he figured it out. Cat isn't nice; leave it alone.
Hera, on the other hand, was an agitator. Once or twice a week she had to nose at the cat. Canada always looked disgusted, like "Really? We're doing this again?" and then smacked Hera across the nose.

My neighbor feeds his cats sequentially.
Calm cat is fed first to make it alpha, etc
Not sure if it will work cross breed but it is worth a shot.
Feed the dog first to unthrone the aggressive cat.

Lunchtime musings - nothing important here 
Since I started working from home (early in the Covid-19 pandemic) I rarely break for lunch. I eat while I work - usually reheating leftovers.
I am curious what others do. Do you prepare a fancy meal? Step away from work for some amount of time? Skip lunch altogether?
Best wishes - Craig
