Even if you start dreaming up ludicrous salaries/options, the cost to hire them would be only a fraction of the hit Microsoft would take in the market if not for this play. Satya could comfortably let them name their price and say yes to anything.
This hand was played well by Satya.
There are some dark patterns in the setup experience that might cause that.
Turn off the "Show me the Windows welcome experience after updates..." and the "Suggest ways I can finish setting up..." options in settings.
I bet if you're having preferences change on you, it's because you're clicking ok or next without reading during these nag screens.
One of the lesser-known gems of Windows Phone was Contact-based reminders. You could tie reminders to people and be reminded whenever you interact with them. I used it regularly. Has this been copied anywhere else??
The specifics of their keyboard implementation were also really great. And that UI! The well-designed apps which followed their design language were so goddamn clean.
WP had many unique ideas but was always on the outside looking in.
No. Edit: Wait, COVID. I took COVID home.
If it follows the same pattern for all MS features, there will be a check box to turn it off, but it will be on by default. So if you don't like it, turn it off and save your outrage, like me, for the absence of a vertical taskbar in Windows 11.
I think the issue is that Keep isn't the default. If you use Assistant and create a shopping list, I assume that right now it will default to Tasks, and we all know that there's significant inertia that comes with default settings.
To change it to Keep, firstly you need to know that it's even an option to change it, then you need to figure out how because it's non-obvious.
Talking to Assistant (via Nest for me) to add items to your shopping list in Keep works amazingly well. If you geotag lists, you can have your shopping list pop up automatically when you get to the store. It's the future! (and it's been here for years if you knew how). It's crazy how few people know to do this.
I almost feel like they listened. Was this you, Deiter?

And don't forget that you need to demonstrate that it's producing a current. Just get a light bulb, right??
It seems that AI without human guidance is mostly useless. So far we've seen that you need a human operator, and typically one with decent domain-specific knowledge/skill to get an AI to produce anything worthwhile. That guidance is essentially human authorship.
They did and I'm perfectly prepared to double down.
If I told people I used a password manager, and which one, I give a bad actor a target. I give a social engineer a thread to pull.
If I told people I had a bitcoin at an exchange, secured using a certain method, I'd be painting a target on me.
If I told people about a rock with a key under it, then I've given out far too much info. Sure you don't know where I live, but small pieces of info can add up quickly. It's flat out dumb telling people the details of your security. What form it takes, and what products or procedures you use. Just telling them what you're protecting is too much. Don't. It's bad security practice. Like it or not, I'm actually trying to be helpful.
I don't divulge my security practices publicly, online. That would be incredibly dumb.
Should we take a moment to recognise that battling climate change with air conditioning is not a long-term winning strategy??
$60,000 for the entire 378-day mission.
You're asking for a great deal of specificity. If there are any products that match that list, then that is likely the cheapest option.
