Even though backing up data is seen as a “central IT function” by many IT professionals around the world, most fail to create regular backups. And you've checked you can restore from those backups (that you're not making)?

The saddest part is, that even when they are doing backups. Most of the companies make a simple FIFO system with max a couple of months... they will very probably fail against a patient hacker that just wait a time before really "attacking".

Before Pong there was Computer Space, the first commercial video game. Played it. Loved it
Way better than Pong.

I remember running across this and hating it because the star background meant you couldn't tell where the shots were. Of course, I sucked at Asteroids, so I was already a bitter soul about 2D space games!

Writing extension for Visual Studio can be a daunting task for even the seasoned developer. If only they could do something to make it easier?
Sorry, link to video training.

I tried using a new C# 10 feature called implicit using statements and discovered that it wasn't quite as straightforward as I first thought and you should probably not use it under certain circumstances. Not explicit enough?

It's ed on release, wait for v2.0 in VS 2024/25 for them to work out the bugs!
Better?
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?

Poor broadband and remote work made the scale of Windows updates a challenge that needed solving. So they could do more of them?

And still most of it is bloatware or unneeded crap

Programmer vs. developer? Developer vs. engineer? Programmer vs. engineer? There are differences in salary, prestige and upward mobility. About $20,000 a year?

Developer vs Engineer you don't notice differences until moving towards embedded systems, where knowing a dozen of frameworks counts nothing but knowledge of physics, electronics and mathematics goes a long way.

The problem is that Developer and Software Engineer titles can be given to 'high level' roles that don't go anywhere near writing or even reading code. I am retired now and would describe myself has having been a software author. Someone who designed and wrote software.

Microsoft is aiming to fix AMD performance issues this month But of course...
I'm really starting to think that Windows versions follow the "rule" of Star Trek films (ever other one is good)

Maybe they should start the next Windows redesign by completely redoing, and combining the Control Panel and the Settings app into one comprehensive, cohesive, program. And then building out from there, making certain that all windows, popups, etc, match that design scheme.
Or just go back to Windows 7. It is still the best, after all these years.
But if they took the first approach, and did it well, they might make 7 the second best.

AMD's decision of not working on Insider releases seems to bear fruits.

Microsoft has shared details of a new known issue with Windows 11. The company has confirmed that a problem exists with apps that use certain characters in registry keys. So just use perfected normal ones like Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00000300-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}\InprocServer32

A majority of organizations understand the importance of modern security in cloud native deployments, but few seem to be following through on that. Everyone wants to be secure, but no one wants to do anything to get there
