Oh God said to Paul Thurrott, “Kill me a son”
Paul says, “Man, you must be puttin’ me on”
God say, “No.” Paul say, “What?”
God say, “You can do what you want Paul , but
The next time you see me comin’ you better run”
Well Paul says, “Where do you want this killin’ done?”
God says, “Out on Highway 61”

i think the key part they're missing is "and then hire a bunch more people until you have the same headcount you used to so people aren't sandbagging tests", but for some reason that's the part most companies miss. must be an accident oops

no you see making one person do multiple jobs requiring different skills makes them more productive than letting them do the thing they're good at as much as possible

i read that specialisation is for insects in some book so it must be true

Today, my son, like the SuperSite for Windows, is 16 years old. He has a driver's license and a job, and he bears zero resemblance to the tiny baby he was when I first launched the site. Indeed, a lot has changed since the start of this little site. Today is the day they both die at my hands. Life is strange and wonderful like that, I guess.

Paul Thurrott's son was found hanging in the weight room with a bible next to his head. Thurrott was wearing a bra at the time of the murders.

remind them to bring back windows classic 2000-style theme, the needless padding of the modern design isn't functional

i actually used a reg hack in w8 to make my window borders as small as possible.

it's stupid but it's so much less clunky looking

not gonna happen

the desktop versions aren't going to be dropped because the metro versions are a usability and functionality nightmare, and the metro versions aren't going to be dropped because several layers of middle to upper management love metro and it's basically ballmer's legacy

does it still give the horrible clunky metro style wifi menu when you click the wifi icon and the perfectly fine classic volume control panel when you click the volume icon
