The uk could veto anything from the eu so if they wanted to violate eu law they could have stopped it being created in the first place, there is no rational reason for brexit

This hasn’t been my experience working in IT over the last twenty years.

If you bought a top of the range machine for windows 95 and put windows 98 on it, it would have been slow.

It would be really funny if someone managed to use someone’s phone camera to take a photo and make it look like the site was showing their own face.

What stops people watching cat videos while walking around and touching their key fob against specific points?

This isn’t the case in the uk, anyone can start a business

I can’t help thinking that notebooks would be less relevant if people embraced unit testing more

I think adding a toggle to run or not run a cell would be a trivial change, something like adding a property to the cell (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jupyter/notebook/master/no...) and checking whether that is set or not before running the contents.

If I install a new browser I don’t care what default search it has, I can change it.

Once I have changed it I don’t want something changing it without me requesting it.

This is my position, I’m unlikely to change.

The maintainer can choose whatever style they damn well please, if you don't like it don't use it.

What is hard about this?

Maybe not even malicious, maybe they just put in the wrong subscription ID :(

Surely the kernel developers can do whatever the hell they like.

If you don’t like that don’t use it.

I’ve seen azure implemented at dozens of top enterprises and every single one used the api’s to some extent.

People make dev/test/pox’s by hand then automate it.

I’d take the wager :)

This is spot on

Azure sales are very good at offering big discounts and incentives for getting people to migrate, I have seen many enterprises suddenly switch to azure because of big discounts but have never seen any enterprise suddenly switch to aws or gcp.

On an “etch a sketch” you go up one dial then down a half then right half a dial then down half a dial then right half a dial and then right half a dial and then left half a dial and up one dial and then right half a dial and then down half a dial and then...bugger stuck

I personally think £40million is outrageous but how much does a system that cannot go down cost?

Hope so

I started reading the article:

“ The inner-platform effect is the tendency of software architects to create a system so customizable...”

Yup, that was it and I have seen it so many times - architects should think that a flexible system that “can just” handle any possible future requirement. This always ends in a mess of junk that isn’t actually needed by the business.

I just finished a project where literally everything had been over engineered to the point that it took them weeks to do a release.

The code generally had one path but every method was built using dictionaries of possible classes that would implement interfaces so they wouldn’t have any duplicate code.

Sometimes some dev teams go down the wrong path.

This, they should have migrated test accounts or some employee accounts first and then slowly migrated other accounts.

Priti Patel pleading for everyone to give them what they want “can’t you just think of the children”

I would love it if I could tell a bot the outline of an article and the main facts and then it filled in the rest, that would be awesome.

It doesn’t have to be a human or bot but a human and bot together :)

I lie anonymously because I want to put the average up so we all get paid more :)

I don’t know if you still can but it used to be that with Microsoft premier support if you passed some specific exams you could bypass the first tier (who were excellent engineers) and go straight to escalation/ cpr engineers

The thing I like is that their stuff makes it easier to develop and is reasonably priced.

If your company won’t pay for it you can buy a personal subscription cheaply.

I’ve had this recently, worked at a place that Microsoft uses for case studies and have had a couple of jobs because of where it is - people see Microsoft holding hands on stage and then ask recruiters to get people who worked there

How easy is it for a us company to do anything about a Ukraine’ian company?

You know you have another year?

“The Flash” the film character dies in December 2019, flash the shitapp dies in December 2020

It sounds like they were asked to invent a way to record passengers
