I think they’ve navigated a situation that looked hopeless better than anyone in the west could have expected. We all hoped economic sanctions were enough to elicit a peaceful outcome when negotiating with Russia failed, but instead it’s turned into things like BRICS.
Ah, I see one of the toxic family members is with us.
I was quoting Doctor Who ;)
Don’t you think he looks tired?
I like the idea social media is for kids only and adults are banned. If that applies to advertisers and bots too then it could be a winner!
I reckon it’s hard to attach blame to Microsoft because of the culture of corporate governance and how decisions are made (without experts).
Tech has become a bunch of walled gardens with absolute secrecy over minor nothings. After 1-2 decades of that, we have a generation of professionals who have no idea how anything works and need to sign up for $5 a month phone app / cloud services just to do basic stuff they could normally do on their own on a PC - they just don’t know how or how to put the pieces together due to inexperience / lack of exposure.
Whether it’s corporate or government leadership, the lack of understanding of basics in tech is now a liability. It’s allowed corporations like Microsoft to set their own quality standards without any outside regulation while they are entrusted with vital infrastructure and to provide technical advisory, even though they have a clear vested interest there.
OK, but people aren’t running Crowdstrike OS. They’re running Microsoft Windows.
I think that some responsibility should lie with Microsoft - to create an OS that
I get that there can be unforeseeable bugs, I’m a programmer of over two decades myself. But there are also steps you can take to strengthen your code, and as a Windows user it feels more like their resources are focused on random new shit no one wants instead of on the core stability and reliability of the system.
It seems to be like third party updates have a lot of control/influence over the OS and that’s all well and good, but the equivalent of a “Try and Catch” is what they needed here and yet nothing seems to be in place. The OS just boot loops.
Why is no one blaming Microsoft? It’s their non resilient OS that crashed.
That’s a relief I guess, but I still have a great sense of shame and remorse for our conservative politicians. In America they sell out to billionaires for huge rewards. In Australia they’ll fuck the country for a bag of peanuts.
As an Australian, I’m sorry for how backwards and retrograde this country is.
Or get medical care when we’re sick.
I think it’s the conservative movements final stand to be selfish, retrograde minded and cruel. The majority of people now believe in empathy and doing the right thing but those who don’t have doubled down on their ways.
My 2c anyway!
Religion is mostly to blame, but I think some of those religious teachings have been integrated into institutions and secular society as well. Notions that self gratification is a treat and not a need, the perception of masturbation that it’s some teenage boy temporary phase and not for women or older married men. The idea that it can’t be a social activity at all, even though it’s free and safer than drugs.
You guys have money??
I’ve been working my arse off my entire adult life and have nothing to show for it but debt and long term illness.
I’m self employed and have been reducing my hours worked per day cause I found I was more effective with a good rest and without forcing myself to work those extra 1-2 hours each day. Crazy hey.
Hey that’s not fair - he invents his own narrative about reality all the time.
He’s technically correct - the Taiwanese government are the legitimate government of China living in exile from the Communist Party’s violent take over.
