It probably means an improvement in productivity overall.
But then I'd say that, wouldn't I, looking at things from somewhere on the spectrum.

What do tech leaders do when they leave the scene? They focus on some of the more basic things in life. "Toilets, toilets, toilets"

People in at least three different roles may be reading your bug report, and the information each group needs is different. I’ll show you how to organize your report so it provides everything your audience will need. It don't work - fix it URGENTZ!

Mmm...
Better yet, document it in advanced and it won't be a bug, it will be a feature

DOS Subsystem for Linux integrates a real Linux environment into MS-DOS systems, allowing users to make use of both DOS and Linux applications from the DOS command prompt. "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents..."

My only question is: "why?"
What would this odd combo give me that a command-line installation of Linux (NO GUI installed) wouldn't give me?

Are you sure about that? Maybe your definition of "save" and mine differ a bit.
Let's see how many posts about problems due to this you post in the future...

I meant that you don't need two machines/VMs - one for DOS, one for Linux. But yeah, that was scraping the bottom of the justification barrel.

The meaning was clear... no worry. I am just a bit cynical with all this mixing they came lately.

How else would you natively run Lotus 1-2-3 for DOS and Wordperfect for DOS as well as Linux?

A "design flaw" in the Microsoft Autodiscover protocol was subject to an investigation by researchers who found they were able to harvest domain credentials. They didn't say _what_ it would autodiscover, did they?

Maintenance is often associated with trudging through lines of code with the debugger in a desperate search for bugs, in software that someone else wrote. 0: Console.WriteLine 1: Pleading 2: Prayer

Oh, I thought finding the source meant the person. That's who I want to go after, not the damn bug. Let the person who introduced the bug fix it!
I think I'm management material

The final section is "A binary search for the root cause of a bug", which refers to varying the inputs to see which of them reproduce the bug. I don't know about you, but my experience is that many people use a binary search when inserting printfs or breakpoints to pinpoint where the code goes wrong.
