In a free market, aren’t you free to collude with your competitors in order to fix prices?

Oh is THAT why every American knows how big 9mm is

Well, yeah. Anything less than 0 is freezing and anything greater than 0 isn’t.

“will the company go out of business if this isn’t fixed in the next hour?”

Litmus test for urgency

If you go far enough right, you buffer overflow around to the left.

If you go far enough left, you buffer underflow around to the right

No, he would become a martyr which would only strengthen the resolve of the MAGA people

My house was built in the 1960’s, to New Zealand standards.

We build houses for the climate we wish we had, not the climate we actually have. All the wall cavities are empty, especially the external walls

Still kind of relevant today; benevolent big corporate appreciating the work of its faithful office slaves

/s just in case

Let’s say your country was about to be invaded, your house stolen and you sent elsewhere or killed so that citizens of the invading country could occupy your house and your land instead.

And all of that not happening was hinged on the physical prowess of an old guy who’s probably been in politics for decades.

How helpless would you feel?

Well, as far as I’m concerned Skype for Business set the benchmark for terrible. Teams isn’t even close to being that level of bad

Teams is relative.

At a previous job (Microsoft shop but in the public sector so 10 years behind), the standard messenger when I started was Skype for Business.

In case you’ve never used Skype for Business, it’s “Skype” in branding only and actually has nothing to do with the Skype software that Microsoft purchased and is more like MSN Messenger.

Compared to that, Teams is a huge step up.

Also, at a Microsoft shop, you have to use what Microsoft provides even though it’s usually balls.

It’s 90% of the reason I now refuse to work anywhere that’s bought into the Microsoft ecosystem. It’s just so… mediocre

“security reasons” is the classic cop-out for making users lives more miserable.

Like what are you gonna do, argue that you don’t care about security?

You’re like the guys who spent up large because they thought the world would end in 2012 when the Mayan calendar ran out.

It didn’t, and now they’re saddled with debt

Everyone seems to be forgetting who started this in the first place.

Israel is sure as hell gonna finish it

It’s a great example of the English appropriating another cultures cuisine because theirs is, well, a bit shit.

It’s like it’s “expats” when UK citizens enter your country and “immigrants” if anyone else does

Beef?

In think you’re mistaking them for beef-like products. I don’t think they’ve used actual beef since they declared independence from Britain

There might be lots of lurkers, like myself

Why is it that security guys always think their issues are more important than any other issues?

Like well done you, you ran an automated tool over the codebase and it picked up some outdated dependencies.

We cant just update these dependencies because the newer versions have breaking changes and we already have a backlog of 32767 issues to deal with.

It’s not security debt, it’s just general technical debt.

Why is the issue that is only exploitable in a contorted scenario where the user has broken out of a VM and gained root on the hypervisor more important than the issue preventing our largest customer from tripling their volume on our platform?

Not to mention the joke that’s been made of the CVE system due to resume padding by the security industry…

If I didn’t have Google Maps Transit to navigate western Europe, Singapore and even Los Angeles I’d be completely screwed because I come from a country with next to no public transport and had no idea how it was meant to work
