Does the unified memory work in WSL2?

I haven’t finished reading this but I am commenting because of the form. Lead with the conclusions, table of contents, and then sources? This is someone who is confident in what th…

Your example about this hinge is nurturing behaviour. This is exactly what people should be doing- identifying issues and also at least suggesting they be fixed before proceeding i…

This is infuriating. However, for those in this situation, know this: it works if the document or spreadsheet is in OneDrive. I just wish Copilot told you this instead of asking yo…

The book that changed the game for me is “Leadership and Self-Deception”. The thesis being that the root of resentment is self-betrayal, where self-betrayal is denying your impulse…

The post you’re r replying to gets this right- lead time is everything. The fast you can iterate, the more likely that what you are doing is correct. I’ve had a similar experience …

This is my focus protocol. Whenever I find myself having trouble trying started on a task, I create a new desktop and open windows related to the task only. DnD on. Pick a next ste…

I got bitten by this confusing UX. The spreadsheet must be in OneDrive for copilot to use it as context. It’s actually quite useful.

The biggest mistake is accepting controls that they cannot manage. I mentioned automation earlier for this reason. If your controls place undue stress on the business then you’ve j…

Tone at the top is most important - if this is not valued at an organization level, it will be tough sledding. Next is knowledge - you don’t know what you don’t know. However, one …

I’ve seen this pattern play out before. The pushback on simpler alternatives seems from a legitimate need for short time to market from the demand some of the equation and a lack o…

I feel like this ‘cloud-first’ strategy will only get worse now that AI assisted development is common. I notice my personal AI assisted C# projects get far more complex than when …

jyn’s advice here is spot on, however it misses an important point: jyn you are exceptional because you do these things. This is what excellence looks like.

Hardly a Pyrrhic win. When the rest of the market is burning money, whoever burns money the slowest while still remaining competitive will win.

Out of curiosity, why does this have to be a left-leaning initiative? I personally don’t use these political labels as I’m often confused by how they are used.

This is on the engineers. Asking for time to refactor is like a painter asking for time to prime. It’s part of the job so just do it. When brought out in discussion, it sounds as i…

Snark aside, this is the main topic of Eli Goldratt's "The Goal" - one of my favourite books. Output of the business is constrained by some bottleneck. Improving efficiency away fr…

Continue using emdashes and trust your audience.

There is something to this. I believe that if you cannot feel, you also cannot reason. It’s almost as if intellectual ability is an application of emotionality rather than somethin…

This is a well written article that points the tension between talent building and improved output. Although focused on design it gives me some ideas on how to build an effective e…

> You don't have enough clout to make organizational-level changes. So process things that you see that are really inefficient, and you have some ideas how to address them? Now you…

Practice makes perfect. Assuming AI adoption initiatives are well intentioned, it makes sense to reward people for being pioneers in their organizations. We’ve always done this. Th…

This makes me feel a little better about this change. However, there are bound to be weird Edge cases. Edge allows multiple profiles, are all always available to store passwords? C…

That’s right- technology does replace pieces of our everyday life. I fear what happens when social ties are what are replaced. For example, technology allows us to travel long dist…
