I've seen some shocking writing on Google news. Enough to keep me from returning there.

Scientists have revealed that levels of carbon dioxide increase in the Northern Hemisphere during summers each year as plants absorb carbon dioxide to convert sunlight into food.
-- source[^]
No, this isn't a GW commentary, I'm just pointing out the excellent journalism. 
And this other article is equally absurd:
It’s a widely known fact that plants inhale carbon dioxide in summers, and they exhale it in the season when they grow. source[^]
Gee, don't plants grow in the summer?

They're afraid of clouds, or they are shy from sky?

Where do they dig these people up from? My 5 year-old granddaughter quite possibly understands this stuff better than the reporter. Simply staggering!
There are complexities. A monitoring study in New Zealand found that a particular forest gave off much higher quantities of methane than previously thought. Methane is estimated to have between 20 to 105 times more greenhouse effect than CO2 (the range depends on both timescale and expected interactions with other atmospheric compounds). The forest was quite possibly swamp (the report I read didn't include the detail) and anaerobic fermentation favours methane production. Just a glimpse into the complexities of this subject and why climate effect is so very hard to model.
Yet, this reporter doesn't seem to grasp the simplicity of respiration and photosynthesis.
Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

That's because "global warming" makes it hotter and colder and wetter and dryer. Whoever invented the term made a massive mistake. They should have just stuck with "climate change".
It may have at least prevented such movies as "The Day After Tomorrow" and "2012" but no, someone's got to give Hollywood an excuse to bore us to death (and educate people who can't be bothered to find out what it's all about for themselves ).

In other news, The landing knocked the comet out of its current course and will now make impact with the earth 42 years from now wiping out all life on earth.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I have to wonder if the lander would have bounced off the comet if it hadn't come up against that cliff....

I tried to install VS2013 update 4. I got (among others) a really helpful error message:
kb2829760
Incorrect Function
Really useful - a bit like the sort of error message you'd get from a Vic20 circa 1980: something has gone wrong, but we're not going to tell you what.Should have just said "illegal operation" and have done with it.
So on to the next logical step, Google the KB article and see what the beef is. The Article[^] describes some Knowledge Base stuff, but doesn't really address the my problem. Fair enough - not what I'm looking for.
Then I notice the "Give feedback" section.
Question 1 is fine: "Was this information helpful?".
But then MS pulls a doozie "How much effort did you personally put forth to use this article?" 
Setting aside the weird 18th century phrasing, how much "effort" am I expected to personally "put forth" into "using" the article? Buy it dinner? Compose it a sonnet?* Seemingly implied in this question also is a judgement call - I assume MS is going to give less weight/ignore feedback from people who personally "put forth" very low effort. I read the article - found the information didn't help me, probably wouldn't help anyone. Reading it was almost no effort at all, except energy spent on eye movement an a tiny bit of brainpower in a tiny brain.
* This May have formed a large part of my general feedback.
tl;dr - Developer irked at Microsoft Feedback question.
Alberto Brandolini: The amount of energy necessary to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it.
