Crapfest :))

你做啥？不知道。长大以后想做啥？也不知道。：）

技术这个东东，好是好，到了一定程度，不是简化生活，而是使生活更加复杂。科技使人聪明，科技也使人觉得更加愚笨。：）Technology is crap.

有人爱动脑筋，钻技术的东西就觉得兴奋，因为脑筋受到了挑战。我们不行，大部分时候，稀里糊涂朝九晚五，知道工资在自动存往银行帐号里，埋头拉车，就不去抬头看路了。

吭吃吭吃捉小虫子的时候，也很难看到路。一点都感觉不到自己是在为人类作贡献。怀念农耕时代，自己种的粮食，收成好坏，好赖自己心里有点数。

这个星期产品发布，下周休息，加拿大还是得去，不过只能去一头，因为下周中途又有事情，决定先去多伦多/大瀑布，明年七月再去满地可（喜欢这个土名，蒙特利尔太雅太做作：）），赶那里的爵士乐节，魁北克城，离满地可不远之处，还有 Stowe， VT，《音乐之声》Trapp家住的地方。

Microsoft Vista shutdown menu has 7 options.

How many Microsofties does it take to implement the Off menu?

Every time you want to leave your computer, you have to choose between nine, count them, nine options: two icons and seven menu items. The two icons, I think, are shortcuts to menu items. I'm guessing the lock icon does the same thing as the lock menu item, but I'm not sure which menu item the on/off icon corresponds to.

The Windows Shutdown crapfest

I worked at Microsoft for about 7 years total, from 1994 to 1998, and from 2002 to 2006.

The most frustrating year of those seven was the year I spent working on Windows Vista, which was called Longhorn at the time. I spent a full year working on a feature which should've been designed, implemented and tested in a week. To my happy surprise (where "happy" is the freude in schadenfreude), Joel Spolsky wrote an article about my feature.

I would like to try to explain how this happened.
