My brain doesn't have the computational power to respond to that. A neural restore to 5 minutes ago is now taking place so this absurdity is removed from my consciousness.

It's good to know that they set up very frequent neural backups for you! Or did they provide some sort of continuous process?

So they've done nothing more than to make denying hardware/software upgrades to developers easier by having only one person to say "no" to. This means they are going to spend 50-60k (or more!) on pay someone, just so they don't have to purchase a 2nd monitor for their devs.
The mind boggles...

We didn't need one. Back in the day, one VP was shocked--shocked, I tell you--to discover that there was an average of more than one terminal/workstation per developer. An edict was issued that the average had to be reduced to one. Never mind that different products used different platforms and that some developers worked on more than one product, and therefore needed more than one terminal/workstation.
So, some brave soul wrote an almost identical edict expressing shock that there were surplus chairs. Empty chairs in conference rooms were a waste because you could just bring the one from your desk. If your chair didn't have wheels, it would be replaced or retrofitted.
The VP was not pleased, but the edict was quietly forgotten.

I miss the old SD Times back when they felt 3 or 4 paragraphs of blather and useless drivel was enough work for the day.
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?

Funny thing, Visual Studio 17 is Visual Studio 2022. Just to make things more interesting!
Now, another funny, or disappointing?, thing is why put all of that in the preview branch... I want them in the release branch!

OData NxT is an attempt to reconceptualize the core capabilities of OData while maintaining the original syntax protocols published by Microsoft back in 2007 OData stuff. We get our data from thee. True data access in all of us command.
Does anyone outside of the dev team use this anymore? Ever?

OData does look cool I reckon.
But I can see many reasons for it to totally fail to capture any market.
However, with Blazor, I think there is a chance it can get put to some use..

I wonder, what are the odds that the FTC has taken 'reasonable steps against the Log4j vulnerability'?

The cyber-security firm terms Norton Crypto a "feature", which will utilize your PC to mine cryptocurrency when Norton 360 detects that the system is idle. The settings will be managed by Norton. Does their antivirus detect itself?
And conveniently they take 15% off the top.
