The US Constitution is actually reasonably clear as long as you take into consideration late 1700s language idioms. Some parts, like Article 1, Section 1 are very clear even today.
All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
This is the statement that seems to give our politicians so much trouble and is the source of several recent US Supreme Court decisions overturning Executive Branch policies.

How do you get consent from the scorpion to remove its tail in the first place?

I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

A.Team's annual Tech Work Report highlights the struggles tech companies are facing in hiring, onboarding, and dealing with hybrid-working models. To code monkey, or not to code monkey...
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the interview loops and whiteboard tests of a hiring cycle,
or to get butts in seats of a sea of recruiter chaff
and by hiring, not complete the app. That is the question.

just one urksome for me:
Quote: Earlier this year, major tech companies including Apple and Meta announced that they would not require college degrees for certain positions, typically positions that are more difficult to fill. These positions include software engineers, technical support, and quality engineers.
this puzzled me, I've had a annoyance with the term engineering and software for some time, so clicking through the source they provided, it only IBM offering specific Software engineer apprentice which is a bit differnt then a mid or senior role, but then article talking about "Highly skilled", so didnt fit their naritive I guess. Still props for hiring junior/apperntice roles without collage requirement.

An ongoing malvertising campaign is injecting ads in the Microsoft Edge News Feed to redirect potential victims to websites pushing tech support scams. Never trust the news!
Myself completely included, of course.

Not just Edge's news feeds, but also Edge's notification feature. I regularly clean out notifications that claim your McAfee license has expired (on machines that have never had McAfee installed).

That's just how good the McAfee antivirus is - it can find viruses while still remaining on the store shelf!

Since MS got rid of their QA people, what's wrong with others offering it to you? They are just going out of their way to give you a service.

If you don't want to wait to be officially updated through Windows Update, you can get it right now through the official channels via Microsoft, and enjoy all of the new features. Be the first on your block to not be able to find any new features!

note that the article does not mention the requirement for a late-model hardware (2.0) TPM.
that, i think, may lead to gnashing of teeth.
Maybe i'm so behind the times i haven't heard of an MS sanctioned way around that ?

No, MS still requires TPM 2.0.
Personally, the supposed extra security provided by TPM is not enough of a reason to reformat and reinstall everything on my computer, from the O/S up. I'm quite happy with Win10 in its nonsecure mode, and have no reason to change it at the moment.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Thanks, Daniel,
If installing Win 11 would require reinstalling all my apps, that means bill will never go there.
