I bet that it is way above 50%.

I suppose, I was just thinking that people will have no clue what it means.. and therefore half will say yes, and half will say no... but you're probably right, because people don't want to break anything, 90% will probably say yes in the hopes fewer things will break with yes.

That is what I suspect, anyway.

That wouldn't last long if I were a coder there... Theme of my coding practices: Oops, let's try that again... Followed immediately by "What do you mean unexpected end of file?!"

Move to C#, things are even easier. BASIC language constructs are not the most clear and easy to use. It was originally designed for learning, not for using.

And learn, I did.... So much so that when I look at code written in C#, it leaves me going: Wha? If it's Visual C#, I can poke my way around it a little bit. I'm getting better at it, but I'm generally goingto write web apps in PHP and Windows Apps (rarely written at all these days) in VB.

Lots in fact. My dad actually has that DVD service from them still.

Annoying as f***[moderated] too

Read - Eval - Print Loop

It's a way to use the programming language without having to write an entire program first.

I'm pretty sure it would fry an egg. It has been SO hot to the touch.

For UE you need to find the IT staff member who was in drama class or local theatre or law school - anything where engaging public speaking is practised. Especially in larger companies you can find a really deep pool of talent at this sort of thing.

Then, ROI is much larger - get that employee to do lunch & learns, after hours classes, whatever. Get mgmt to buy in and offer food / incentives.

1/100th the cost of hiring an external company, the material is INCREDIBLY well tailored to your environment and the "teacher" is always around.

Now. But I haven't always. I worked for government localities with under 300 employees before.

And I run into it working for tiny companies, not the big ones.

Yep. I wouldn't deal with for the most part here even if we had it. I manage the servers and the network/routers and MPLS as the Systems Engineer. We have people that handle most of the applications. some of the SQL management falls on me but, very little.

@Dashrender It's too late now. All the spam bots have already screen scraped the image and subscribed you to Cat Facts Hourly, Cat Facts Weekly, FurBaby Facts Monthly, and Arachnids R Us.

it's a really good thing I moved away from that address primarily.

iCloud Drive will start to look and act more like a mounted drive from a PC so will give a much more familiar file browsing experience.

I'm trying to decide if this is a good or bad thing.... I haven't used cloud storage enough to get 'used' to it one way or the other.

That's how bad it is now, no one uses it currently because it is useless.
