In September 2018, Microsoft officials said Windows 10 was installed on more than 700 million devices. Now that number is 800 million, company officials say. For those keeping score at home
|
|
|
|
|
They're probably counting:
0) How many attempts were made to install Windows 10 before the device finally accepted it
1) All the idiots with under-powered ARM devices that "got it installed".
2) Plus or minus 799 million...

Never before, in the history of human conflict, have so many been made so bloody miserable by so few incompetent prats.

When it comes to DevOps there’s general agreement that a skills shortage is holding back broader adoption. Study by DevOps group finds people like DevOps. I'm still waiting for that study from the chocolate institute to let me know how to feel about chocolate.

Some call it a skills shortage I call it a "want to" shortage.

Nonsense; a good programmer is an operator. We pay operators because a programmer can be more productive if not being in the role of operator.

"DevOps" is just a way for corporations to double the workload a dev already has, without paying him any more to do it, while being able to fire their operators and sys admins.
In normal people parlance, it's called "f*ckin bullshit".

The reason for the high demand is obvious.
There are no such things as "DevOps skills", so no-one can find people with them.
Naturally, skills that are not exclusive to DevOps, and weren't invented for DevOps don't count as "DevOps skills".
Something Spike Milligan wrote comes to mind, about a private mopping the floor in an army base -- Spike called it "rearranging the dirt".

Employees bullied by their bosses are more likely to report unfairness and work stress, and consequently become less committed to their jobs or even retaliate, according to a new study. I think we have a winner for, "Most obvious research"
Making it even worse (bold-face mine), "Yang and her co-authors reviewed 427 studies and quantitatively aggregated the results to better understand why and how bullying bosses can decrease 'organizational citizenship behavior'"

At least one wouldn't doubt credibility of their research 
|
|
|
|
|
Had they reviewed a 428th study, perhaps they would have found that differing viewpoint that says working for bully bosses is all unicorns and rainbows. There is a certain part of the population that we would say are "gluttons for punishment", they would thrive in such a situation.

I'm pretty sure your boss must have applied pressure to you to write that. (Either that or you are such as boss.)

Depending on the employee, they can positively impact the bosses too. Repeatedly, at high velocity.

If this is how they throw time and money away, what they need is a boss who'll kick their @rses for them!

Totally true. I've experienced this. Having such bosses just push you to arrive on time and go home on time, without giving anything to the Company (minimum effort)
Usually a short transaction period where you start browsing LinkedIn to find a new job.
