i meant the .net umbrella obviously

what i was looking for was whether microsoft experimented with langs like ocaml, delphi, go, rust, lisp, haskell, etc...

i know their engineers have but what about the company itself?

eh, i mean, spj has been at microsoft research since '97 so the haskell cred to some extent exists, f# is an ocaml clone for the .net runtime (and has seen some serious support for something so business-wise minor), delphi is/was entirely proprietary, but also largely windows-exclusive, so i am not sure why or how microsoft would have gotten in there (though interestingly windows was originally heavily pascal-oriented, which lives on in calling conventions still)

lisp was dead before microsoft got going, go i doubt will ever happen (since it's poo poo), and rust is too new for anyone to really know (but i could see that becoming a thing)

meanwhile i think the biggest sort of off-beat language impact microsoft is having is that typescript seems to be winning out among the javascript dialects

i wonder if keeping long path support out of explorer.exe was a passive-aggressive attempt to enforce the legacy limit so that people couldn't put my_garbage_app.exe in a folder with a long path and have it mysteriously fail because internally it does

code:
char path[MAX_PATH];
GetCurrentDirectoryA(MAX_PATH, path);
and just assumes that it will always work because a path can't be longer than MAX_PATH, right?
explorer.exe pretty much has to interact with everything third-party so it'll probably the last man standing in legacy

apparently you can't change the internal hard drive on the xbox one x without completely disassembling it and voiding your warranty, and gamers are upset because it's only a 1TB drive

it doesn't help that the forced 4K asset downloads put some games into absurd-sized territory, with Quantum Break weighing in at 178 gigs (with very little of that being on disc versions)

microsoft wants you to use an external hard drive and connect it to one of the USB 3.0 ports

Capturing HDR screenshots is slightly trickier. When an HDR screenshot is saved and uploaded to OneDrive it creates two files, a PNG and a JXR (Jpeg XR) file. The PNG file is super-bright.



While the JXR is dark and subdued.



To make the screenshot appear as it does on the Xbox One X where it was captured, the two composite images must be merged. I do not have access to a piece of software that will do this. I doubt many people do.

uh, presumably the JPEG-XR is high bit depth and (pre re-encoding), has the full range of data in there?

like, it'll appear dark if you're not displaying it in hdr because... you're not displaying it in hdr

just installed a fresh copy of windows 10 1709 and smbv1 client isn't disabled, neat

run windows update, prompted to reboot, check on windows features, disable smbv1 client and enable linux for windows, prompted to reboot, reboot now
run windows update again, can't check for new updates because it needs to reboot first

there's a new option, which after googling, says it removes the smb 1 feature after 15 days of it not being used

Change your default playback and recording device in the sound control panel.

i love when my default playback device gets changed for no reason

there's a microphone plugged into the microphone jack on my sound card, the card that should be handling sound stuff, but the web cam on usb port 9 says it has a mic so let's use that one for everything

"dude your new mic sucks, it sounds like you're in a barrel"

i found a good enough way for me. you can disable free form "content boxes" in the options, and down arrow from the page title line will always go to the same line, so it's all good now. with this settled, i like it considerably more than evernote

that bug with new pages was really annoying tho. basically the same notebook section, on a new page creation, would create a copy of the last page. the fix was to port it into a separate section and delete the old one. hope i dont catch this in the filled up modelling notebooks
