I should have used the "irony" / "joke" modifier My fault

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?

No problem. I'm on vacation this week, and one our field service guys in England sent me an e-mail yesterday. I replied to him that "I'll look into [the problem] on Thursday the 5th. We traitorous scum are celebrating our rebellion today."

Is that what we call him today? Is he planning to watch the fireworks tonight?

Last time someone introduced himself as uncle Bob, he looked like this.[^]. Fireworks is probably his middle name.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

LOL I completely forgot about that! And it strikes me now, about this Uncle Bob as well: Clean Coder Blog

I hadn't realized he'd sobered up from the first already.

Sort of into jazz, man! (6)
A suspicion has just crossed my mind that the literal element in this might be a uniquely British crossword convention. So here's another, somewhat easier, clue with the same answer:
Business information store for clerical worker (6)
98.4% of statistics are made up on the spot.

From the second clue:
Business information BI
store SHOP
for clerical worker
BISHOP
And that leads to Walter Bishop Jr.[^] who played jazz piano.

We have a winner!
The fist clue was ISH = "sort of" getting into jazz = "BOP" leading to a (chess) man.
It was my wondering whether "man" for chess piece is ever used outside of the UK ...
I'm not familiar with Walter Bishop - must check him out. I suspect that my old man has a pile of his records somewhere.

No idea what you wanted to show us, but this is the way I air travelled in the late 1980s:

I accidentally cut off the last digit of the post's number when I copied the link. Now it works. Very nice way to spend some time in the air. No comparison to the Y-Tours flights I used to have.

We're thinking of moving our development environment over to VSTS, but we don't know much about it or how it works.
We are small team of 3 developers and each have a local install of Visual Studio 2017 Professional on our work PCs. We use an on-premise Team Foundation Services 2015 for all our builds and releases.
How does VSTS work? How do we develop, build and release our software using VSTS? For those that are using it, what are your thoughts?
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

We used VSTS/Git at my previous company. Was a smooth experience. Especially if you deploy to Azure.
