The democratic model in Denmark isn't that different than the US in ways, but it functions better mostly because of their norms. If the US were more prosperous country with different norms, the laws and governance may be administered similarly, but the results would be quite different. yeah if only the most prosperous county in recorded history were a little more prosperous lmao get out of here

It's debatable whether the current US model is even really democratic. I'm not really too personally interested in economic theory but I do keep up on it somewhat. There was a good interview with Bill Moyers and Krugman discussing Piketty's Capital a few weeks ago on Moyers' show. Here's a video of the interview and a transcript. The reaction to Capital has been fairly hilarious, there are some lol Forbes articles about it But anyway Moyers had a monologue after the interview, and he said: Bill Moyers posted:Listen, there’s a big study coming out in the fall from Martin Gilens at Princeton and Benjamin Page at Northwestern, based on data collected between 1981 and 2002. Their conclusion, quote, “… America’s claims to being a democratic society are seriously threatened … the preferences of the average American appear to have only a minuscule, near-zero, statistically non-significant impact upon public policy.” Looking forward to that study. I actually like Google okay, they have good services if you're a small business. It does suck how they abruptly drop things or modify interfaces, often with little input from the outside. Butts

my boss used azure to setup a lab environment for testing some sql server stuff and now hes fully on board the clod. If we can ever convince the ceo to go cloud we'd probably move everyone to 365 the next day and then start planning to move any infrastructure we can to azure/aws

i'm actually warming up to the idea of exchange as SaaS. but gently caress migrating mailboxes to smb accounts. exchange online supports direct migration from exchange server, office 365, which is identical feature wise, does not. you can only migrate mailboxes by exporting to PST, then importing to the new account. the new server essentials role does native azure ad integration and office 365/exchange integration out of the box. it's ridiculously simple to set up.

Caged posted:office 365 has a full exchange online console. you can do proper migrations with it. afik the exchange server integration is only available with the Ex plans, not the Px small business plans. you can't mix the plans within a domain and the per license cost of the Px plans is lower so it tends to be what businesses with les than 25 licenses are using.

Cocoa Crispies posted:i just think "what if you only had one plan that was $5 per seat-month or $50 per seat-year" why do that when you can have 15 plans covering every price point with every level of feature and product availability spread amongst them. some of the features may or may not be listed on the license comparison page, because those features are specific to types of licenses, and are enumerated elsewhere in a document you won't find unless you know the specific name this week to search for. it's like a secret menu for your SaaS
