Whilst nobody can dispute the inordinate success Hoffman has had in building and scaling LinkedIn and his work on Greylock, his associations with the Epstein files, previous spats …

Yikes, same happening on my PC. This is crazy, nefarious websites constantly intruding in any way they can.

It's also what was the cause of the Azure Front Doors global outage two weeks ago - https://aka.ms/air/YKYN-BWZ "A specific sequence of customer configuration changes, performed ac…

This is the single most frustrating thing about these incidents. As you're harmstrung on what you can do or how you can react until Microsoft officially acknowledges a problem. Too…

I respectfully disagree. Thankfully, I don't need to write regex much, so when I do it's always like it's the first time. I don't find the syntax particularly intuitive and I alway…

True for me too, much more memory efficient, especially with content heavy websites.

I have used a lot of RDBMS vs NoSQL solutions and I love SQL Server. I have used and written services consuming/reporting/processing thousands of transactions per second and billio…

Hi, you need to make sure you're using "Visual Studio 2022 Preview ", not just Visual Studio. Even with "Use Preview SDK's" enabled in the VS2022 tools and options, it will not wor…

Couldn't connect on LinkedIn, so sent you message through contact form :)

Yep, I think ads is just another way of saying monetization. The app has lots of annoying notifications like "You might like...", "You got 100 upvotes", etc which, when you engage …

In fairness, Visual Studio has all of the features of VSCode and many more out of the box too - however, I find myself ducking into VSCode for it's better UI/UX - e.g. JSON/XML for…

Fantastic list, and thanks for the links. Personally, I would put "Sapiens - A brief History of Humankind"[0] in the list rather than it's successor "21 Lessons for the 21st Centur…

AirPrint made up for what Google failed in execution. Cloud Print was a great feature when it worked but unfortunately, it was always a bumpy ride.

PrintNode is a great alternative and a well refined product - definitely recommended. However, it has one major drawback as compared with Google's Cloud Print and that's its lack o…

Sounds eerily similar to the early days of Ryanair[1] which was a poorly managed basket case in an industry ripe for innovation of its time - managers caring about their looks more…

I lol'd at "welfare program for slackers" - That's the dream really... Find a chaotic workplace that lets you play with your favorite languages and no real tangible outcome.
