I had some selection rendering issues in Excel, and Word is reporting some kind of registry corruption on startup. Otherwise, works fine.

Both have advantages, from my experience. Communicating useful everyday things with coworkers brings in a more friendly atmosphere, which lets people trust you with work. Going on full communication blackout helps in focusing on actually ge

Yup, it's like a secondary space. Doesn't visually overlap with real vision, but it's still surrounding in the same manner as real vision.

I recall very specifically, when I was 3 or something, walking out onto the playground and realizing sentences are made out of words. Learned myself to read before getting to primary school. Also can bypass verbal thought. Can internally he

I think without explicit sentences, usually, in abstract thoughts. It's just faster, I suppose? The words kind of flow out as an internal monologue-ish thing in semi-structured overlapping sentences more as a side effect. Doing full mo

Most cases I've seen accept anything as true as long as the LSB is 1, and quite strictly 0 as false. Everything else is up in the air. The value -1 is definitely true. :)

I remember there was some particular shade of off-black in Windows 95 that was always transparently showing any video that was playing. Don't think it's related though.

Yep. Tracker is for stuff that definitely will get planned in. TODO's are just little reminders for when returning to a piece of code some time in the future. For actual immediate tasks, a TODO_123 with the active ticket number is more

Web developers don't seem to have any concern about using gigantic quantities of memory. Don't hire a web developer to develop for games. :)

Yup, a little red airplane animation with a light yellow banner, on the taskbar, if I remember correctly. Didn't see it on all installations, though. Is it a specific version?

I have fiber directly to my house here in the Philippines. It's pretty much becoming the standard offering here now, with mobile data as the low-entry-cost alternative. Lack of pre-existing infrastructure has some interesting side effe

Brother makes printers here with giant refillable ink tanks, instead of cartridges. Still on the ink that came with the printer when I bought it almost two years ago. On HP I would've had to replace the cartridge every few months for t

At the very least, can we have the same font size on the control panels... This junk that's inherited from Windows 8 has random huge fonts all over.
