Return with me to the Glory Days of Windows XP, which apparently some people, somehow, are still using even though support for it ended in...2014. If it is broke, why fix it?

A new report from AND Digital suggests hundreds of CEOs based in the United Kingdom are now afraid of artificial intelligence (AI) taking their jobs, but remain on the fence about exactly what to do next. Bring in the Boss-o-matic 3000!

In recent years, Microsoft has been hit with a series of embarrassing hacks that have exposed corporate and government customers. Even the bugs have backward compatibility
I mean, it's almost like it's the #1 OS and productivity software suite so that most of the hackers attack their software. Almost.

Those aren't bugs, they're features.

Generative AI has advanced and developed so rapidly that even Bill Gates believes it could eventually take his job. Poor guy. I hope he has enough saved up to retire
|

Only deranged AI would try to do Gates's current "job".
|
|

Ohh! Great idea! AI fully animating (and vocalizing) Bill's avatar in the Metaverse! Nothing like a crappy experience in a crappy environment!  (Or two avatars, playing both lead roles in Dumb & Dumber, or a Beavis and Butt-Head sketch.)
(Would be one more reason to not join the Metaverse! )

Microsoft has announced the upcoming end of support (EOS) date for Office 2016 and Office 2019 apps, along with related productivity servers. All of those apps will no longer be supported after October 14, 2025. They were still supported?
I could also ask, "There are newer version of Office?"

Finding and correcting root causes, rather than assigning blame, makes for a good working environment (and good software) as long as incompetence is not overly tolerated.
|
|
|
|
|
Ah! But how could you ever have job security without incompetence?
|
|
|
|
|
Very insightful! Let's keep 'em around!

David, Greg said that incompetence is not overly tolerated. That implies that some incompetence is tolerated, perhaps even neccesary. 
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
