Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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 no interest at all in making positive changes in the world. I just want to do my job and move on.

I think if most people focused on that, it would be a positive change in the world.
Thanks for setting the example.

I live to serve as an example to others. Usually of what NOT to do. I own that sh*t.

On top of all the Visual Studio announcements at Ignite 2019 in Orlando today, Microsoft also shared some notable improvements to Visual Studio IntelliCode, which uses AI to offer intelligent suggestions that improve code quality and productivity. We're going to need a bigger TAB key

Or SharePoint 3.0?
