the twitter files, what a laugh. Can you point to a particular part of the twitter files that was not obviously overblown, wrong, or subsequently thoroughly discredited that supports your claim of conspiratorial right wing suppression? Here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter_Files

He is accusing you of not beign "leftist enough", which he regards the same as beign a traitor to the "good" side

Do I need to be present for this thread, or are you capable of projecting the rest all on your own?

You have held a very public grudge against him for at least two decades. Don’t pretend now that you can be objective about anything concerning him.

What "grudge" would I hold against him? If you mean I've long believed (like a huge portion of people who actively work on Linux, unlike me) that his output is enormously overrated, guilty as charged, I guess? It sounds like you're just accusing me of not having changed my mind about him.

I think he might be right

The massive amount of legacy .NET and older software still running in many enterprises isn’t a problem, but a huge business opportunity.

My prediction is that Microsoft will push hard their “Azure Virtual Desktop” product: remote, virtualized Windows instances hosted on their own servers to these enterprises.

In this model, the operating system running on the client devices will becomes largely irrelevant.

But in that case, Microsoft still has to support and maintain the Windows OS running within the Azure Virtual Desktop. If they're doing that, why not support it on the end user compute as well, and get that sweet sweet recurring Windows license revenue from businesses?

Yeah, that was totally me.

The only book I ever read for school was by accident. I was already deep into it on my own when the teacher assigned it to us

My 9-year-old still remembers that show and sometimes says things like “did you know that fifteen is a staircase number?”

I think the show gave him an intuitive understanding of numbers and made basic math easy for him

It really is a genius-level show. I’m so happy it exists. Every detail is just perfect and both my kids love it and have learned so much from it.

It doesn’t hurt that it’s so entertaining they love watching it over and over, making it even more impossible to avoid committing its (very useful) memes to memory!

My kids were watching it at 5-6. But I believe they didn't understand that a staircase number is a sum or a rectangular is a product (they had to relearn that later in school).

"Young man, in mathematics you don't understand things. You just get used to them", John von Neumann

I'm 99% certain you don't have kids. The remaining 1% is reserved for the possibility that you do, and you just hate them and everything they stand for.

Otherwise you would realize what dystopian hellscape of an idea you are suggesting.

> His user name has a korean vibe to it.

What makes you say that? To me it's clearly Japanese (the "-chan" by itself is a dead giveaway) and there's way too many open syllables to feel Korean.

My username does not have anything to do with Korea. It is a reference to a Japanese anime Giji Harem—it is really good and funny if you are into anime, I recommend.

Maybe they could go there only half of the day and we could call those places "Schools"

I figured the big scandal would be some bloated government contract shelling out millions for Calibri licenses. But nope, turns out the guy just… doesn’t like the font. What an absolute clown show.
