Same in canada, coworkers can't get into web outlook, but desktop outlook on a unmanaged laptop doesn't use 2fa for some reason.

whichever brain genius decided the default behaviour in office apps should be to completely override the printer driver settings while still giving you the option to manually set settings via the print driver, should be hung from a lamp post by their dick and beaten like a fleshy pinata

no one gives a poo poo about printing, but lord almighty the team responsible for this poo poo must have had some severe syphilitic brain damage or something there's multiple page setup options that will override your printer settings, among them is one called "default" which will actually use your printer's tray preference, and two called "automatically select" which will just do whatever the gently caress. surprisingly, the one named "default" is not actually the default, and because defaults are per-template and per document, even if you set "use as default" after selecting the one that actually works, it won't apply to anything else anywhere and the button is effectively loving useless.

hot take: the office team should be castrated with rusty farming implements also fun, installing the ctr version of office 2019 kills the modern-app version, it also completely resets any settings, preferences, or profiles created by the modern-app version.

there is a microsoft store distributed version of office 2019 and office 365 that lives in its own microsoft store silo and doesn't integrate with any other installed apps and dies a lonely lonely death if you install the CTR version instead. this is also what comes as the oem pre install if you purchase an office license with your PC. and if you don't run it at least once to tie it to a microsoft account *poof* goes your license

if at any point you find you have a use case for access, consider barring the doors and setting fire to the building.

our barcode management and creation system is an undocumented pile of access/excel/outlook macros living in a folder on a single, ancient desktop computer that’s never been backed up. one day it stopped working and stuff started grinding to a halt so i tried to debug the pile of macros and every line was evaling string references to other parts of the macro pile instead of just calling the functions directly so i gave up. next day it all magically started working again and nobody even cares why it stopped working lol.

access exists to stop idiots from using dBase. in that it has been a success and we should consider it a triumph.

also, removing or significantly expanding the limitations of excel spreadsheets has largely killed off the use case for access i wish it weren't true, but it is

orange sky posted:How does nosql work anyway start with mysql. remove features until it sounds innovative. add clustering if you have removed enough features that clustering is easy depending on what features you have removed, querying can range from "kinda like mysql but the syntax is even shittier than sql" to "well you can scan it i guess" to "export it to mysql if you want queries"

orange sky posted:So it's just a bunch of hash maps this is pretty true and one of the better aspects of the idea. the log-factor and unified nature (i.e. there is no really natural clustering) of b-trees gets to be issues as data grows, whereas the O(1) of hash maps does actually scale pretty far. as one keeps messing with it stuff like rehashing stuff gets more complicated, as you need to be able to defer the work, as you cluster you start having to do stuff like build bloom indices to find things etc., but it is a very flexible base to get such work done on plenty of highly structured nosql things though (column databases remain the coolest case), they do tend to have in common ditching b-trees however
