I choose to believe.

How long until the meeting content is condensed into a score that is used on performance reviews?

“Well, Bob, you’re a diligent worker and your output is on par with your peers, but your Teams Meeting Quality Quotient is sub par. Among other things the Facilitator™ has noted a tendency to not use the entire allotted meeting time, and that the actions it automatically identified aren’t being marked complete on the Teams AI Task Board. That looks really bad. It also says your meetings have 12% higher off topic content than your peers citing an increase to 15% correlating with March Madness. Though it is notable that the 60/40 split of male/female voices speaking is above the company mandate of 70/30, so that’s good.”

Seems like a missed opportunity. That is definitely “stop sign”.

As a young engineer I went all in on SharePoint when it came to our company. Became evangelical and learned how to make it do all sorts of shit.

How naive I was…

Fuck OneDrive with a rusty hook.

Ok, so not OneDrive generally but specifically the unholy merging of OD and Win11. JFC when I navigate to a folder and save a file there THAT FILE HAD BETTER FUCKING BE THERE and not in some shadow folder you default mapped to OneDrive because FUCK ME, RIGHT?

This irritates me so much. Get off my lawn.

Mint and Arch. Two lowest parts of the graph… Yeah, that tracks.

This is my last hope for America as we know it: MAGAts destroy themselves once their Christ figure is gone. It could devolve as you describe, but it might also be just the lull to prompt recovery.

Y’all not just out there vibe OSing?

My first network stack was written in assembly for a Motorola 68k. It was hot.

This. So fucking much this. I’ve seen Jira used to plan waterfall schedules, to track meeting actions, and as a relational database. And all of them claiming to be “agile”.

When used for the right thing in the right way, Jira is a great tool. It is people who make it shitty, and specifically the type of PM who doesn’t understand the complexities, people or technical, of their work.

I’m with you. Hope we can do it without violence but it is looking grim.

Don’t worry, there won’t be another.

Depends on if you are on a big endian or little endian architecture.

Common misconception… Unsigned booleans (ubool) are always 16-bits.

01111111 = true

11111111 = negative true = false

Two biggest worries as a homeowner: water where it shouldn’t be and no water where it should be.
