Glassdoor released four predictions for the workplace of 2022 Wednesday based on data it gathered from reviews, salaries and conversations happening on its site, as well as economic trend data. "Making it work takes a little time"

Microsoft has partnered with Boston Consulting Group (BCG) on a document called "Ten Guidelines for Product Leaders to Implement AI Responsibly". Hopefully including the big three
Although based on their past AI examples (Tay, and I vaguely remember one more), I'm not sure they should be writing the book?

C++20 is a big release - at least the biggest since C++11 - some have said it's the biggest since the first standard in 1998! C++++

C++20 has the most academic crap in it. And no networking. Then there's the idiocy of strings (they rushed a bunch of changes without thinking of the ramifications.) It's almost like most on the committees aren't actually working developers.

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?

We are very excited to introduce to all of you the redesigned Notepad for Windows 11, which includes a number of changes we think the community will enjoy! The rounded corners really ties the app together

Why? just why?
It was one of the best exactly due to its simplicity...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

The dark theme looks nice, and multi level undo is also handy.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

For such things you have a bunch of apps / editors.
I have always used the notepad for:
- being sure I can open the file in ALL computers I came to work with.
- being sure that what is written, is actually written (unicode letters hacks, malware links and similars)
- being sure that the text I move between apps is totally neutral and has no "hidden" format with it
All other "smarter" editors have failed sooner or later in any of those points, Notepad never failed me in this way. From now on... forget it.

It still is a bog simple text editor. They updated it's UI to the current theme (not a critical issue, but the mix of new and old theme applications always looks and functions at least a bit like 💩), added dark mode (arguably also part of a modern theme), updated to the W11 standard font picker (arguably also part of a modern theme), and made some minor quality of life changes like multiple undo. It's still notepad, not a Notepad++/Atom/VsCode competitor.

Btw... did you forgot to list the "new icon"? or did they really not change it?

I accidentally opened Notepad (instead of Notepad++) the other day. The police burst in and quarantined my computer.

Heh,
One of my old coworkers (Jeff Miller) tried to update/modernize notepad almost a decade ago but it caused a huge internal company debate. Even one of the company VP got involved. He barely made it out of that situation with his job.
He posted about it over on the HN news forum[^] along with my response.
