Richard,

Thanks for the tip. But why did they remove the option to allow the threatening files? Isn't it my machine?
The difficult we do right away...

Well,

2. Installation and Use Rights.
a. License. The software is licensed, not sold.

This is why it's such a conundrum. Microsoft usurping that authority is infuriating, I'm sure you can agree.

.NET 7 builds on the foundation established by .NET 6, which includes a unified set of base libraries, runtime, and SDK, a simplified development experience, and higher developer productivity. And so it begins again

Don't worry. Google will get bored in a few years and pull the plug. My only hope is it's the fusion reactor that power's Google's data center.

In the world of tech tools, there’s a lot of buzz. But it doesn’t always reflect the daily reality of programmers. I've got 99 problems, but developing isn't one of them
Lame, but it's late/early/I'm uncaffeinated/brain's not working/some other excuse.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

While most devices do require a sign-in to fully enable app stores, cloud storage, and cross-device sharing and syncing, Windows 11 will soon stand alone as the only major consumer OS that requires account sign-in to enable even basic functionality. "I really want to know. Tell me who are you?"

From the replies: "After Windows 10 stops receiving updates we run out of reasons not to go back to Windows 7 like we always wanted."

There is someone at Microsoft that pitched this idea and there are people at Microsoft that said "Wow! that is a really great idea. Let's move on that now!"
And then there is us, the "end" user.

Stupid is as stupid does.
Right now, my Quicken file (I'm running an i7 with 64GB of ram on an SSD, so it's a fast machine) now loads slower than on my last PC. Why? Well, every time Quicken launches, it goes back and talks to the mother ship. Even if I turn off the "sync with cloud" feature (why in the hell would I want my data on their cloud?) it still has to go back to the mother ship.
Microsoft cannot even get the Office 365 login correct - I select the "don't remind me for 20 days" box, and the next day I have to log in again.
It's almost like people in Redmond ask themselves, "let's see how far we can go before the masses rebel."

I seem to remember IE 11 broke websites for the same reason. Sites read it as IE 1 and refused to work.

A lot of sites refused to work with IE 10. I remember receiving more than one message, "IE 1 isn't supported"

Writing is an increasingly important skill for engineering leaders. Indeed, poor writing can hamper career progression, above a certain level. Tactics for more clear, more frequent and more confident writing. Same as becoming a better coder - do more of it
With some feedback loop, of course. This place seems a good place to start.
