    @phenomlab well I hope that a better company steps up and puts in a higher bid. If I had the money I would buy TikTok. That platform is a money makers dream. So many people on it now er or was.

    I think MS will just mess it up like they do everything else. Hell, they can’t even get their own software to work correctly, how would they even keep that one up and running.

    @phenomlab this is good. I see this happen a lot. It is unclear because usually it is a group talking and going over things and trying to plan according to the knowledge that they have with what is working and not working now. And yet some time down the road, something new comes out, something changes and now what was possible isn’t and vise versa. I have seen these kinds of situations, and I encourage taking very good notes and making them so they are always accessible to you/your team so that way a search can be done and the notes appear and you know exactly why, what, how and where the decision was made. When I say you, I mean anyone in a position to make decisions that bring about change in whatever area it might be.

    @Madchatthew I can’t see it happening either to be honest. It’s one of the most mature programming languages there is, and given the figures, it’s clear to see is not going anywhere anytime soon.

    and BOUM Personally, I don’t hate American companies. I use their products like everyone else, but I think their economic weight is such that they impose their own rules instead of respecting those of the countries where they do business. And here, for once, the DMA is putting the church back in the middle of the village (French Expression).

    @phenomlab said in Ex GCHQ employee risk to national security: I can’t believe also that security is so lax that someone without adequate clearance can waltz into a restricted area and take what they want. Yeah I can’t believe that either. It is crazy
