Pendragon posted:but I'm certain they've learned their lesson and this time around they isolated all the browser version-specific code into compact modules that can easily be replaced in the future when they need to switch browsers again. hahahahaha enterprise software never gets changed more than the minimum necessary to make the error messages go away, unless some jackass middle manager decides he wants a new feature the upgrade mostly consisted of commenting out 75% of the stuff in the "if getbrowser() == IE" blocks and then tacking on "if getbrowser() == IE11" blocks after them

ibm's licensing for their gpfs filesystem and probably other stuff is some crazy thing where you have to look up your processor model/speed, find out how many units of whatever made up ibm poo poo it equates to, then buy however many units of that for the number and types of processors in your cluster, except you can only buy in packs of some nice round number so you end up with like 500,000 units of licensing for your hundreds/thousands of clients (plus extras) then they may or may not ship you 800 pounds of shrinkwrapped paper+cardboard "licenses" for a software product that requires no activation or codes or anything like that

there is currently a ~*platform*~ that dell software is selling that they literally can't get installed again so there is a single working appliance they ship around the world whenever someone wants to demo it and you can only demo it for like a week cause they need it for the next POC

whats even scarier is that its been bought and their strategy is to throw in like another dozen licenses for software for free that can be installed to stall ever having to get it running

the best thing in this table is that ibm itself admits a Cell cpu is, at most, 1/4th as valuable as a contemporary POWER6. i can't believe they persuaded anyone, much less Sony, to buy one
