im hoping the undercurrent of satya's droning on about 'cloud first mobile first' poo poo is hey selling a bad product on the back of a good product actually just makes the good product look like poo poo while also not selling the bad product a lot of servers and tools products moved in the direction of working better with non-windows clients like SCCM working with OSX and Android and iOS now (though i dont know how well) and that was while he was in charge there

Mercurius posted:yeah they bought itap for mac/ios, rebranded it and removed the cost remember for at least five years the microsoft rdp client for osx couldn't use rdp gateways and would randomly poo poo itself on sound/printer/storage forwarding one of my clients was stuck with either buying itap for or giving vpn access to contractors that used macs. hell, until exchange 2010 OWA would run in a gimped "lite" mode if you used anything other than IE. now OWA on 2007 or 2010 will only work in gimped mode if you're using ie 10 or 11, unless you add it to "compatibility view" in the browser. gg microsoft

if you are using python and excel you are doing it wrong. export your excel data as csv, then import into pandas and other excel data crunching tools.

I wrote something in outlook 2013 for windows and went "holy gently caress who thought a sliding inset caret was a good idea?" you see that poo poo in movies but that doesn't mean it actually makes sense in practice also why is the entire UI IN CAPS like "UPDATING FOLDER Inbox"
