We're running a heavy process that's causing some of our servers to creak a little. Sorry about any slowness you might experience today. It'll be over soon, I hope.
cheers

No problem, I had to attend a funeral today 
(no, not the funeral of the CodeProject website)

Sorry to hear that, mate.

Thanks Chris, it was my mothers funeral, everything went well, the weather was perfect, and I'm sure she would have appreciated all the kind words said by the four speakers. I concluded with some lines from an old poem:
Quote: Farewell to thee, farewell to thee
Thou charming one who dwells in shaded bowers
One fond embrace ere I depart
Until we meet again.

I will do my part to alleviate the server burden by not posting this. Oops.

Cheers Chris it wasn't slow for me - it was unavailable for hours

If a page doesn't load for a few hours can we still claim that as slow loading times?
(Sorry about that)

I thought the server hamsters seemed a little haggard this morning.

The introduction to The Lounge says:
Quote: The Lounge is rated Safe For Work. If you're about to post something inappropriate for a shared office environment, then don't post it. No ads, no abuse, and no programming questions. Trolling, (political, climate, religious or whatever) will result in your account being removed.
I am focused on the sentence: Trolling, (political, climate, religious or whatever) will result in your account being removed.
However, is bashing and trolling M$, Apple, Google, Meta, etc. when they, as companies, act stupid with their technology/programming/API offerings, OK?
Of course it is 
|

It's not bashing. It's discussing, in painful detail, the issues that we face using our tools as part of a thoughtful dialogue.
To be honest, the state of software today is doing my head in.
(and it's been a while - how are you?)
cheers

I think I will save that wording, and use it to tag some of the future Lounge postings that the OP is referring to

Seems like discussing the developer that was fired from Google for claiming that the Google AI is sentient would be border line on that?

The AI or the human?

Hi Chris! Long time!
That's a very nice, "PC" way of putting it
But to be fair, I've seen plenty of M$ bashing and trolling (and yes, I know it is out of love) --- and they deserve it somewhat

If mistakes are made and no one realises then how can things improve?
We're just ensuring no one accidentally missed anything. And then reiterating. Just in case.

I have no idea how I found the word today. According to WordleBot there was just one possible solution after my second guess. I guessed in less than 10 seconds and⦠solved!
