Another day another 3 tech problems to deal with. While trying to sign into Outlook I kept getting the message "we can't sign you in right now, please try again later". but I needed to clear my cookies instead, why have a message saying "please try again later"? I've been trying again for 2 days and that would have gone on forever. the message should have said delete your cookies. not only is microsoft making more unstable software it's error messages are also misleading.

Some other good example are:-

having to entering your address 50 different ways so an online form will recognize you address as valid one.

Ringing mazda because the Vin you entered on a form was invalid. Then the man on the phone verified that in fact it was valid.

Also I hate robots that force you select from 20 different checkbox reasons for ringing none of which have anything to do with your actual reason.

I could go on and on really but I read somewhere that the average person spends more then 200 hours a year fixing these sorts of things. So if my math is correct 8.61 billion people x 200 annual hours each = 1.722 trillon global man hours each and every year and the number keeps growing. I think raising the bar for software engineers has become a better cause then curing cancer.

I watched some overweight people at a popular local running event at the weekend, hobbling down the road, and this was the start of the event!

Society was encouraging them by cheering and clapping as they pounded their joints, and went passed very slowly.

There are more beneficial ways to improve someones health like, swimming, cycling, exercising, and even better doing all three.
