Literally.


To me, the more amazing thing is that the product is Windows Server 2016 and the bug is because Microsoft is still supporting it nearlyrly 10 years later.

Because code bloat pales in comparison to data bloat, I can't help but think data which fits on a floppy might be a more impressive metric.

Byline is Jan 02, 2025.

Yes, this. Because their network was how they got a head’s up about the possible layoff.

what do I do when it’s blatant that they are just copying AI slop from Grok or chatGPT

Don’t discount the possibility that what they are doing better serves the business than how you might pursue the same objectives.

Even if it is not better, committing to their decisions may be better than raising a point of procedure. Because businesses don’t live and die by the quality of ten page documents.

Although others have mentioned losing weight, weight might be a side effect of a medical condition (e.g. type 2 diabetes) or social pressure (e.g. communal dining) which makes controlling diet and eating schedules very difficult.


I thought T2 diabetes was an effect of weight, not a cause of weight. Ie an effect of eating too much sugar.

Hyperglycemia is an effect of eating more sugar than can be metabolized.

Diabetes is a metabolic condition that has a strong correlation with genetics.


Licensing software from a sixteen year old would have been challenging and in 1983, Simons’ Basic was not an obvious winner. It would not be surprising if most people at West Chester were unaware of it.
