Yeah, I think they're generally considered the two extremes of skill/belief in your skill. Or at least, that's how I think of them.

It means that you may be naive, and that you are, certainly, not a manager.

These are all in Visual Studio 2015, and some have been there for a few versions now so you’ll find them in previous versions of Visual Studio as well. There must be a few in there that you haven't discovered yet

They have developed a first-of-its-kind method for testing and scoring the security of software — a method inspired partly by Underwriters Laboratories, that century-old entity responsible for the familiar circled UL seal that tells you your toaster and hair dryer have been tested for safety and won’t burst into flames. This software is 78.3% likely to not blow off a foot

Denial (I don't have to do math...  ), anger (@$%^&@#%^*@?#$^ math!!!  ), depression (math, y u do dis!?  ), acceptance (I've failed at life  ).
And that's only just basic algebra...

Was this done before or after it was found that most brain scan studies are bogus?

 before, I'm sure.

The scale and impact of the problem recently discovered has been grossly overstated. The 40k figure was a back of the envelope figure because the focus of the paper was on the problem with the analysis tool not how much of the literature had been impacted. After it blew up in the press, the authors refined their estimate of the impact and found it much smaller than their initial estimate; both because the faulty tool was less heavily used than expected and because it only has the potential to significantly impact results in a relatively limited confidence band. Based on those improvements in the estimation the authors have reduced the number of papers whose conclusions might be impacted - which is not the same as being found to have incorrect conclusions - down to 3500: Only the ones with correlations that are at the barely proven level will be invalidated; ones with much stronger levels of proof will probably still be good.
For more information see the study author's commentary[^] or a somewhat more approachable third party writeup writeup[^].
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?

Even for those upgraded for free it should be unacceptable, but what Microsoft have to say about those going actually pay for it?
Maybe (and it is a big maybe) Microsoft will make big money out of those adverts, but will lose a lot of in numbers...

I've been a Microsoft fan since around 1982, but this is the end of the road, not just for me, but for almost everyone I know.
My I.T. friends have either completely switched to Linux now, or like me, they are running side-by-side and starting to transition away from Microsoft.
What happened to MS? Did their management get rabies? Seriously. They seem to hate their customers as much as they hate their employees. What's next, are they going to throw chairs at us?
As I've said before, you WILL NOT put an application in my home or work that displays an advertisement. I said GOOD DAY SIR.

Like a whirlpool, a new light-based communication tool carries data in a swift, circular motion. The optics advancement could become a central component of next generation computers designed to handle society's growing demand for information sharing. It may also be a salve to those fretting over the predicted end of Moore's Law. "You know you twist so fine"
