I think the answer he was looking for was "light switch".
That's a pretty bright idea.

Vim is nice and I actually use it for programming, but jumping between the command mode, insert mode and visual mode still slows me down a lot. Why can't we just be in insert mode constantly and use Ctrl+something for all the commands? Also use Shift+arrows to select text?

This reminds me of the old grammar exercise "Woman without her man is lost," the meaning of which changes dramatically based on punctuation. E.g., "Woman! Without her, man is lost." or "Woman, without her man, is lost."
Since the "majority" has not a faint idea what hacking is, or was, i refuse letting them assign new meaning to words they dojn't understand. IOW your argument is stupid.
Connotations change and denotations follow. Get over it.

Not if you're deaf dumb and blind. It conveys visually information auditorily.
The important point is that the law says you are not allowed to see it on YouTube. Its a right that you had yesterday that you do not have today. Part of the massive, slow and irreversible erosion of our rights.

Powershell is an abomination that makes WMI look good (which is it BTW, it doesn't look pretty though). But hey, Microsoft likes changing things for changes sake,. Maybe one day they'll mature.
PowerShell may not be perfect but, oh my goodness, is it better than anything Windows has ever had before. It is a good thing specifically because Microsoft wiped the slate and started over with a unified shell environment. It's object-oriented, discoverable, and has really awesome remoting built in.
If you really prefer WMI over PS, I have my doubts as to whether you've tried to use either for much. Oh, and by the way, you can access WMI through PS.
Stack Ranking only works on a short term basis where you want to trim the fat.
If you do it for too long, two things happen (a) you start cutting into good performers (b) people will not collaborate to make others look good
What Adobe's talking about shouldn't be revolutionary. They're just formalizing good management technique. I'm fortunate to have a great manager that already provides and accepts this kind of ongoing, timely feedback. That we have to also do the annual, stack-ranked review process is, well, unfortunate.
