  • Or someone compared strings.

    Yes, that's my joke. Using digits in a string list isn't enough, you have to be smart with your sorting and sort the numbers before you make the string list for your drop down.

  • Teams

    Jump

  • Teams wasn't specifically built for remote work though. It was built for internal chat/messaging, document sharing, planning, etc. It is 100% used internally at MS even when people aren't working remotely.

    I know because people at MS have been complaining about it since a few years before the pandemic.

  • There might be a mission in one of the Gears of Wars like this. It sounds vaguely familiar.

  • Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds

  • Developers rarely control the tools budget; their managers do.

    So this whole article is a moot point

    Developers detest marketing. If you want to sell them a tool, make it easy for them to find the information they need and leave them alone to try out your tool.

    So marketing does work, just not "traditional" or "mainstream" marketing. We've had shareware since the beginning times, which was the ultimate try before you buy. Now we have the subscription model (fbow).

    Yeah I'd like to think I'm better than marketing, but really, it just takes the right marketing, and I'm putty in their hands.

  • Why is blocking so common nowadays?

    Jump

  • I use Voyager and it supports tagging.

  • Why is blocking so common nowadays?

    Jump

  • Blocking is tempting when someone actively ignores arguments but keeps coming back with the same thing over and over, or can't avoid ad hominem attacks.

    That said, my block list is empty, but I have tagged people so I know if I'm running into them again.

  • Atlassian to buy Arc and Dia developer The Browser Company for $610M

    Jump

  • I haven't been following Atlassian recently and was wondering if you were just tossing that out there... But no, that is literally their plan:

    This deal is a bold step forward in reimagining the browser for knowledge work in the AI era,” Mike Cannon-Brookes, Atlassian’s CEO and co-founder, said in a statement.

    “Together, we’ll create an AI-powered browser optimized for the many SaaS applications living in tabs – one that knowledge workers will love to use every day,” he added.

def HelloWorld(funcname):  
    getattr(builtins, funcname)("HelloWorld")

HelloWorld("print")

    Edit, improved: 

     
        
import inspect, builtins

def HelloWorld(funcname):
    caller = inspect.currentframe().f_code.co_name
    getattr(builtins, funcname)(caller)

HelloWorld("print")

  • Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward

    Jump

  • Yes, that's what I meant with my "for now" and "for the moment".

  • Microsoft has already said it doesn't matter where your data is stored, it isn't safe from the United States.

    But you can change this behaviour in settings, it's just the default for now.

    So, if you don't trust Microsoft to handle your documents, but still somehow use MS Word and OneDrive, for the moment you can still stop it from saving your Word documents to their servers.
