Microsoft is now launching Viva Engage today, a new Facebook-like app inside Teams that encourages social networking at work. For those that like to look at coworkers' cat photos at work?

I can see this having a place in companies. Think about all the water cooler discussions and other social activities that occur in many companies and this fits right in with them.

20 years ago I contracted at a company that used "the office package that everyone legendarily hates" - anyway, so they had all of these user forums for all of their different company supported groups. Now mind you, fb is fb to mine data. Microsoft wants to be able to mine what companies are doing. You think there is some other reason why they want companies to go to the cloud and 365? Hmm.
Anyway, after announcement after announcement of awards to assorted groups: single moms, mixed this, mixed that. It doesn't really matter. We're talking 100s of thousands of dollars - some engineer commented, "Can we get some money for training and research?" and was told, "Get on the train or find another place...."
Company does not exist any more.
Microsoft made it's money with the OS and Office. I live in the embedded world and we are on Windows embedded. Not for much longer. FML.

A previous employer attempted to create that as an internal platform. It went about as well as you would expect. 
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?

Teams BLOWS.

It's terrible. The conversations are gated by IT settings and they expire. It's a steaming pile... 
God, please let me retire before meeting Viva.

It was now obvious to most organizations that giving developers a choice in the tools they used enabled them to create more interesting and ultimately more interesting applications. Does "rock-paper-scissors" count as decision making?
|
|
|
|

Did it allow them to create more useful and ultimately more useful applications, too?
The difficult we do right away...

I moved forward - created an entire new computer - including CPU, video, music and so - as an emulator only... No burned fingers...

Hmmm,
Are you being serious or just joking? I would be super impressed if you've created an emulator. Qemu and Bochs are using a Cirrus emulated vga bios[^].
Do you have code I can look at?

Totally serious - originally I created a c64 emulator, and then moved on an turned it into a 'dream' computer...
It took me about 4 years - on/off... Now I'm at the point to cleaning it up and releasing to pulic domain...
At the end I was thinking to actually create it using FPGA...
A few more years probably...

Quote: Two high-profile stories in US newspapers this year have prompted the media to ask whether the illegal sale of human organs in the US is more common than previously thought. In the first case, a New York City resident was arrested for trying to orchestrate the sale of a human kidney to an undercover FBI agent for US$160,000. The second story was of an Israeli man who flew to New York to donate his kidney in exchange for $20,000.
Unless you have a secret life in the 1% you aren't telling us about, you will never never be able to afford it.

I did not see costs...
Quote: When the telescope was named Webb in 2002, it had a budget forecast of $1 billion to $3.5 billion for launch as early as 2010. When 2010 arrived, the launch date had moved to 2014, and estimated costs for the telescope had risen to $5.1 billion. After reviews found both the budget and the schedule to be unrealistic, in 2011, NASA reset the program with a much higher budget not to exceed $8 billion and an October 2018 launch date.

Obviously, it didn't make 2018. I don't think you, Kent, or I can afford that SSD.
