    I write stuff for our internal teams and it's usually for sensitive systems where you can cause a lot of problems if you make a mistake. I will often start the doc by saying "This …

    I still miss my Palm Pre. I've sat here since it died and watched Android and iOS slowly adopt the UI that my Pre had 15 years ago. We were swapping between apps with cards and swi…

    The hotel is at least a known quantity. You have a pretty good idea of what you're getting into, the expectations are clear between all parties, and you're having a fairly consiste…

    Edit: Nevermind, I see that you've already done this. It might be worth it to pony up for an M365 license or two, send yourself an email, and then open a support ticket inquiring w…

    A monopoly just means you control the prices of a particular market. Amazon, in my opinion, absolutely has control of the ebook market. If they lower prices, everyone else has to l…

    That is literally the "Games" pane you can turn on in the settings. It's just the store for their games. It's not the default Edge experience. You only see that when you purposeful…

    A union offers other protections. Right now, your employer can (I'm assuming) just fire you for whatever they want. If you have a union and a proper contract, then they need justif…
