I supposed there are third parties which didn't bother setting the version or did it wrong. There's a lot of defensive stuff like that in Windows.

So maybe it's time to simply ban bad drivers. Get it right or leave the island.

Yes, but what about the computer issue?

Quote: ...Intentionally backdating the drivers avoids this problem. It means that if you have a custom manufacturer-provided driver, it will retain priority over the Windows-provided driver.
So that's why there are no complaints about Windows overriding drivers!  Sarcasm to 11!
Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.

You guys over there make about twice the money I make (if not more).
However, my schooling was paid for the most part by the government. Debt when I got out of school was $0.
We have at least 20 paid free days (not counting about 10 holidays, and most people have more anyway). I have 25 + 10 from holidays.
When I get sick I get free (or cheap) healthcare (at the cost of about $80 a month). Also, my employer keeps paying my full salary for a few months, then a little less, and then the government takes over (or something like that).
When I get unemployed I get government money (after my boss paid me first).
Job security is pretty high here anyway, I probably couldn't be fired if I took a sh*t on my boss' desk!
I'm insured for practically everything (except health and car) for about $10 a month.
When I get old I get even more money.
Canada has something like that if I'm not mistaken.
What does America have, except higher salaries in some sectors?
In the end it all plays out I guess

Yeah sure, Europe, with its many countries, diverse cultures and rich history is London and Paris.
This is North America + 5 cities from 4 countries. That's not global at all (unless you're an American I guess)
|
|
|
|
|
It's vaguely more global than their "world series", I suppose.

As we hit this great milestone, I’m also excited to announce that Visual Studio 2017 will be released on March 7. Seems like it was only yesterday I was complaining about it
|

|
And a month after that there will be VS2017 Update 1 with the version M$ should have released.

Well...that might take more than one month. 
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

yeah, I was being optimistic...

The Creators Update opens up a raft of new APIs: Microsoft wants developers to use them. Windows bug tracker? I think we're going to need a bigger boat.

I thought the windows bug tracker was a paper database, stored in boxes in an oil tanker that are dumped in the Atlantic three times a month.

Roger Anderson, a telecom consultant and owner of The Jolly Roger Telephone Company, built an army of human-sounding phone bots that stops telemarketers from harassing homes or business. I need this for meetings

Um, don't know how to tell you this but I did this YEARS ago. It's still running 24x7 and I've jammed thousands of telemarketers. It records each one also. I even put some examples on YouTube. And my system is fully automated. It uses online database look-ups to determine if the call is spam or scam, you don't need to transfer calls to it.
