I noticed this morning that my i7 laptop was emitting a loud fan noise like it was working on something.
I ignored it and went to work.
Now, returning home I noticed that the fan was still screaming so I looked at TaskManager and Android studio was eating 25% of total processor power. Ugh! 
All day long, even though the laptop was closed and idle it was exercising the processor doing nothing.
IDE -- integrated dev environments. blech!

Your lucky, try having it take 70%-90% cpu power and 60%-70% RAM.
IDE's aren't all bad, Visual Studio and Xcode are quite good actually. Android Studio is not any better or worse than Eclipse IMHO.

I'd beg to differ, there is nothing worse than Eclipse...

Far worse on my system. It is so slow as to be unusable, whereas eclipse runs reasonably we;ll.

Single page apps are just annoying and horrible to use when the designer gets too smart.

I'm sure they're a great company but, please, rethink the design. It gives people a headache. 
Why was I looking at it?
Someone there sent me an email asking me why I hadn't submitted my time sheet for last week. I've never heard of them before today!

So submit one.

Yeah, I get all sorts of odd emails asking for very specific things. I'm guessing it works occasionally since its different people doing it. New age corporate phishing.

That web-site in Chrome Version 47.0.2526.73 beta-m (64-bit) displays a 1448 × 956 blurred image, and then ... does nothing for a long time before, finally, loading the un-blurred version of the photo.
A triumph of style over content ?

Unless that really takes minutes... 
I wonder who makes such websites and who pays for it?
Certainly no one is testing it!

Fail from the get-go - page displays error message for a few seconds then a blurred image for ages.
I simply closed the page at that point.
I take it that the company is not profit making and is surviving via investor money - as a "profit making" company with a website performing in that manner would be something of an oxymoron.

I have some experience with them. But seeing as I won't rave about how great they are, and don't want to be sued if I say otherwise, I'll leave it at that.

You just need to remember that the acronym stands for "Scatty" Putrid Application and you'll never be surprised by what you get.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I have to attend a week-long training course on a product called QlikView (pronounced "ClickView" - and don't get me starting on the libtard spelling of the product name). I'm not happy. Forty hours of mind numbing crap I don't care about and don't want to learn about. I think I'd even rather do VB programming.
The "powers that be" think this is going to solve all of their dashboarding issues. Just wait until this stuff chokes and pukes when we throw 37 different human-modified Excel spreadsheets at it. I had to write an import app that STILL has to be baby-sat because of the humans involved in the production of the spreadsheets. I'm gonna laugh my redneck ass off when that happens.

I do not know how you will use QlikView, but we a solution, where we feed it from our database (via views) and the solution is very nice and stable - so I would say that the product was good for us...

Pointing something at a database is one thing. I heard the Colonel that is implementing this say that it should do the job of importing directly from the spreadsheets. It's clear he doesn't have anything even remotely resembling a clue as to how much bullsh|t is involved in my particular process.
