Do a clean enviroment once, backup the server with Ghost or acronis and next time don't give a crap about your collegues, restore backup, install what you need and for the rest... GTFO

Good idea. But I have no administrative priviledges on the esx server. And my boss fails with such simple tasks of course (actually he'd be capable of performing them, but why should he ever bother to do something correctly?).

You are right, if he did, then he would not be a "boss"

Once at an Amazon offsite, managers had the reasonable-sounding suggestion that employees should be increasing communication with each other. To their surprise, founder and CEO Jeff Bezos stood up and announced, "No, communication is terrible!" We might have to kick someone off the team. I don't want to order the third pizza.

Janet Choi wrote: As organizational psychologist and expert on team dynamics J. Richard Hackman would point out, it's the number of links between people that is the problem. He came up with a formula for determining the number of links between members in a group: n(n-1)/2.
He came up with this? Really?

Sounds like a fun read. You have a link?

I think I might've originally seen it here; but Google only turns up real calculus results. 
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?

We're at an interesting point in time/technology where the ability for humans to communicate with each other is magnitudes poorer than the ability for machines to communicate with each other. Since evolution is not going to change that anytime soon, we clearly need to progress the technology to the point where human communication is unnecessary to "get stuff done." The first intermediate step is to get machines smart enough to tell us what to do, rather than us trying to tell machines what to do. The ultimate goal though is to eliminate the need for the human being altogether, such that we can all move to Colorado and spend our lives smoking pot. On the other hand, if we all just start smoking pot, then we would at least have the illusion that our communication was awesome, man.

I regularly take Microsoft to task when they fall short of the somewhat lofty standards I’ve set for them in my head. So it’s only fair that I should also level some harsh criticism at some of their competitors when warranted. "The keys are under the mat"

Yeah, it's been a couple of days. Seems only if the link is too long. I'll clean them up.

Thats ok, it won't take them long to see how to subvert the encryption.

Dealing with code created by other people is a fundamental skill for a developer. Give it a year and other people’s code could even be your own. Double-gloves, mask, overcoat. (Tongs if it's old SQL code)

Delete, backspace, and ... ?

Yes, don't you? It's a 101 keyboard.
Of course, deletion can also be accomplished by selecting the offending code and typing something else.
