You can use the reviews on every major site if you know how to read them. It's actually fairly simple; the best reviews are meaningless. Aside from the obvious shill risk, they also don't usually tell you much.
No, the best reviews are the lowest reviews, possibly the "middle of the road" reviews too. Read those. Those often will have real data that you can use ( failed after a week, has annoying click, doesn't work with x, ect.. ).
There's a bit more to it than that, but that should get you rolling. As you read more reviews, you get a feel for the idiots, shills and other wasted reviews.
Actually, I think that was just a fancy way of saying "We're not changing it, so return your product...if you can".
After all the material that's been leaked by Snowden, is there any question that the man is a patriot?
So what does that make our government?
Sorry, but to anyone who's worked with users in any serious capacity for any length of time, this is kind of obvious. And when I say "Kind Of", I mean "blindingly".
The best way to make the tools that help your users is to understand their job. Get in there and do it yourself. Only then will you have the knowledge you need to create the tools that will really save them time.
And we thought it was expensive and past deadline NOW.
The reality is that the project was a failure for the same reason most projects fail; piss poor leadership.
And I'm not talking about a leadership 'team'. That's a bullshit term designed to deflect blame. You start with a leadership "team", you are already taking a big step towards failure. You need one person in charge who's actually in charge; able to have complete dictatorship control over the project who will be held responsible if it fails.
If you don't dilute responsibility, and find the right person to put in charge, you will probably wind up with a successful project. It's really that simple.
Been in the industry a while, worked with a lot of IT admins. It is a rare admin that understands the scientific process. That can think about problems rationally. That can put aside their own bias and do the job in front of them.
Wish it were different, I truly do. I spend my days cleaning up these admins' mess more often than not. But it is what it is.
Given the innuendo of the clip, one might think we're expected to feel outrage about this because the daughters AND mom don't want it. But guess what? Dad gets a say too, and no; that is not outrageous. Mom must have thought he would be a pretty spiffy father because she slept with him at least twice.
Just because one or both of the parents changed their minds does not mean dad loses his "father" status. His opinion is equal to mom's, and I'm glad the court decision reflected that.
I don't think so. This isn't a problem that gaming can fix; the industry doesn't have the ability to prevent jr from playing inappropriate games. Hell, it's not even their place to say what is or is not inappropriate.
This is a a problem facing PARENTS, and is one that is self-created in that it's parental ignorance and apathy.
The gaming industry has fulfilled their responsibilities; they are clearly marking the games to reflect the content in the games. That's the delineation between the industry and the parent's spheres of responsibility.
Microsoft doesn't move quickly, and over the last couple years, they don't move intelligently.
With the change of management pending, and the fact that some of top contenders for the top spot are...um...remarkably surprising...I wouldn't expect a technical response to this, but rather a legal one.
The unspecified issues is that their infrastructure can't handle that many users.
Don't forget to tip your waiter!
That much money spent on a failed software product? I think releasing it in the public domain would violate a dozen geneva convention regulations. It could be legitimately argued that the code base would constitute a weapon of mass destruction.
No, the only way to effectively handle that steaming pile of...code...is to destroy all copies but one, which you then entomb in a sealed vault miles under the surface of the earth with warnings in every language imaginable.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I feel so much better about my government violating my 4th amendment rights six ways from sunday as long as the phone companies aren't challenging it, as told by a secret court.
Whew!
All kids should have adults looking out for them, helping them grow into successful adults.
This is truly an idea who's time has come.
