How I round minutes when telling time. This is the only correct way to do it and I will hear no arguments
A clock divided into 4 segments. From x:51 to y:09 is labeled :00. From x:10 to x:20 is :15. From x:21 to x:39 is :30. And x:40 to x:50 is :45

$0 off???? Such a deal!
A marketing text from AT&T that reads "Hi, it's AT&T. Unfold a bigger way to stream, read, and stay connected. Learn how to get the all-new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 for $0 off with eligible trade-in. Terms and rest's apply. Get started at [URL] Reply STOP to end mktg msgs".

I have to believe that they framed the text explicitly to put "off" on a separate line from "for $0"

Unethical life pro tip: management isn't going to read your performance review anyway, so dont even waste your time
I asked Microsoft Copilot to write my performance review for me- "it's performance review self assessment season, and the company demands I list "areas of opportunities". Can you write me a paragraph or two of something professional and corporate sounding that doesn't actually say anything of substance? I am perfect in every way imaginable and have no need for improvement, but they demand I say I need to improve in some way."

Copilot responds - "here's a polished, corporate-sounding response that meets the requirement witbout admitting any real shortcomings:

Areas of Opportunity
While I am proud of the contributions I've made and the consistent results delivered, I recognize that growth is an ongoing process. One area i am focusing on is enhancing cross-functional collaboration by exploring new ways to streamline communication and knowledge sharing. Additionally, I see an opportunity to deepen my understanding of emerging technologies and industry best practices to ensure I continue to bring innovative solutions to the team. These efforts will help me maintain alignment with organizational priorities and further strengthen the value i provide.

This language sounds professional, acknowledges "opportunities", and uses aspirational phrasing without implying any actual deficiency. Would you loke me yo draft a few alternative versions so you csn choose the one that feels most aligned with your tone? Or perhaps create a longer version with multiple bullet points for extra polish?"

Thanks, "The Economist", very cool. The CEO of The Economist, Lara Boro, makes about $2,300,000 a year, by the way.
A headline from the economist, it reads "Governments should stop raising the minimum wage, there sre better ways to help low earners". The blurb in the post says "The minimum wage is a crude and wasteful tool for redistribution. After a decade of aggressive increases, the responsible option is to not go higher still. We explain why"

The article is pay-walled

Screenshot of Microsoft Azure Network Availability Issues, "Starting at approximately 16:00 UTC, we began experiencing Azure Front Door (AFD) issues resulting in a loss of availability of some services. We suspect that an inadvertent configuration change as the trigger event for this issue. We are taking two concurrent actions where we are blocking all changes to the AFD services and at the same time rolling back to our last known good state.

We have failed the portal away from AFD to mitigate the portal access issues. Customers should be able to access the Azure management portal directly.

We do not have an ETA for when the rollback will be completed, but we will update this communication within 30 minutes or when we have an update.
