It is if your table is just a datastore with no foreign key links or indexes.

I believe the point the person you replied to was trying to make was that while they add telemetry and have issues with the products where they dominate the market, they try much harder to produce the best product when they are underdogs.

With IE, they started being user-hostile and taking their users for granted because they owned the market. The same thing they are currently doing with Windows 10. They do this because they feel like they can.

However, in markets they are trying to win, they are much more user-friendly and provide great products. You can see this in VS Code and the new Edge (personal opinions). Though, I do agree that just because they are being friendly now doesn't mean they won't do the same shit they did with IE once they gain the market back.

This isn't about Microsoft or Google's culture or history, this is the fact that any company that has little to no actual competition for a market will abuse that fact and take their users for granted.

I was told something similar by my high school history teacher Mr. Kolhaise, but I think it was phrased in a more helpful manner and it's always stuck with me.

He said "Don't just tell me what you don't know, tell me what you do know" or in other words, don't just say "I don't know" but say something like "I don't know, but based on what I do know this is what I think the answer would be and this is how I would figure it out".

It really helps that everyone forgets what people say before the "but" and you can help get across the idea that while you may not know everything you know how to figure things out.

The original version is old, but I've never seen the pun with "copse"

Agreed on both points, it shouldn't take 4 seconds to load a landing page that's only displaying information. I'm also experiencing the same scroll-jacking problems with Chrome.

Kinda disappointing because the Serverless project is very useful, and while the engineering behind the framework is great, the site has way too much going on for how simple it should be.
