    The introduction to The Lounge says:

    Quote:

    The Lounge is rated Safe For Work. If you're about to post something inappropriate for a shared office environment, then don't post it. No ads, no abuse, and no programming questions. Trolling, (political, climate, religious or whatever) will result in your account being removed.

    I am focused on the sentence: Trolling, (political, climate, religious or whatever) will result in your account being removed. However, is bashing and trolling M$, Apple, Google, Meta, etc. when they, as companies, act stupid with their technology/programming/API offerings, OK? Of course it is :)

      It's not bashing. It's discussing, in painful detail, the issues that we face using our tools as part of a thoughtful dialogue. To be honest, the state of software today is doing my head in. (and it's been a while - how are you?)

      cheers Chris Maunder

        I think I will save that wording, and use it to tag some of the future Lounge postings that the OP is referring to :-)

          Seems like discussing the developer that was fired from Google for claiming that the Google AI is sentient would be border line on that?

              Hi Chris! Long time! That's a very nice, "PC" way of putting it :) But to be fair, I've seen plenty of M$ bashing and trolling (and yes, I know it is out of love) --- and they deserve it somewhat :) Regards, Brian Hart

                  If mistakes are made and no one realises then how can things improve? We're just ensuring no one accidentally missed anything. And then reiterating. Just in case.
