Yeah, people use marketing buzzwords because everybody else does.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

See, you're failing to open source your agile orchestration that containerizes your market-speak AI translator in the cloud ecosphere of peers facing similar scaling issues.
But then again, if you actually deployed such an AI, there probably isn't enough bandwidth and servers available to handle the load.

Unfortunately, it's all too often 1.
Why learn what you're talking about, when you can impress people with zero effort? Mind you, that's kinda what marketing is about, so those are the better marketers.Chris Maunder wrote: Speak how your identifying group speaks: do not be different and stand out
That's a precise antithesis of marketing, but it's where most MS users fall. This is the "marketing moron" group, of people who aren't capable of doing their jobs properly, but read enough "self-improvement"* books that they can fake it, and/or stab enough colleagues in the back to get by.
* Actually, it appears that "self-improvement" is a very apt terms for such books, because everyone I know who reads them needs a lot of improvement.

there are tasks, in particular "it won't take long" tasks that should never be attempted on Friday's.
yes, it's a Murphy derivation
...and why the wise-from-experience folk never do anything after lunch on Friday beyond perhaps filing and cleaning up the desk.

Ye gods, you've got to be kidding! Do you have any idea what sort of unfinished apocalyptic grode-fest might be written on a wayward Post-It™ you find under the pile of fast food wrappers, half-full coffee cups, and partially disassembled prototype hardware on your desk?

Yes... you took it home with you.
Since I started asking for a dinner in return of the IT services, requests have almost vanished. Only people that are in close circle continue asking like good friends and family. They would invite me to dinner anyways from time to time, so no real efford there.
And on top, I try to do things where they see the energy that it sometimes get to repair / set up / whatsoever needs to be done to their gadgets.

... and it's important you make the flight*
... and the train is delayed because of power cuts
... but you arrive just about on time
... and there's F'HUGE queues through security
... and you're sweating like a Tory at an Equality Parade
... and the flight's delayed two hours.
That.

Sorry for your loss, mate.

I just ported a website application from .NET to .NET Core. And with the exception of lacking HttpCookie and HttpSessionState, which I commented out for the moment, it compiled and ran and the website comes up and is functional! This literally took only 30 minutes. 
Now, why was this port so easy?
1. I didn't use Linq2Sql or EF in the original code. Straight SqlConnection stuff with my own ORM-less layer for the CRUD operations.
2. Not implemented in ASP.NET -- This is a straightforward HttpListener implementation, not going through IIS.
Granted, I suppose if I'd used EF in the original code maybe it would have been painless. God only knows what ASP.NET vs. ASP.NET Core conversion would be like though.
Anyways, what a great way to end the week. I'm going to get this running on an rPi and see how it performs, with the SQL Server database of course hosted elsewhere.

Yeah, this will be really cool if it runs from and rPi. Wish SQL Server Express ran on an rPi -- my bandwidth requirements are probably measured in the kbytes per month, so it's not like I'm running a high volume website!
And porting to MySQL or Postgres is more work than I want to put into the project at the moment.

Why can't you run SQL Server on the Pi? Not enough RAM? SQL Server 2016 installs on Linux in about 5 minutes...much faster than on Windows.
Nevermind...they don't offer one for that processor architecture.
