My experience is different. When I looked at Styx for the first time, it was like a gathering of angels appeared above my head. Of course it turned out they were aliens, but that's beside the point.

Business user here. I remember how much work I could get done in Outlook 2007 using a 1024x768 monitor on a crap workstation with 1GB RAM. I admit that this performance was often chilled by the many pitfalls of on-premise Exchange setups, l

Accept that in very short order your work is going to become obsolete, useless, and only extant on a tape backup in a mislabeled box. After that, it's easy to graduate to the next level: _memento mori_. Perspective heals many wounds.

This book "opened my eyes" to its contents, but that's not the lesson. It taught me valuable written communications skills I didn't even know I needed. Kourik, _Drip Irrigation for Every Landscape and All Climates, 2nd E

Definitely a Civil War, but it's been going on for almost 100 years. According to Taiwan (NRC), the PRC is an ongoing rebellion. Hindsight being 20/20 Taiwan should have cut its losses back in the 1960s, admitted defeat, and seced

Their logo is a robot. "Go dot" rhymes with "robot". I always assumed that it was a purposeful misdirection using the popularity of "Waiting for Godot" to lead people to mispronounce it as "guh-doh".
