even internally the riff between hardware and software at this company is real.
S - "hey i think we are having an issue with your card when we do this"
H - "try this and this"
S - "okay i tried those things and the results seem to point to the card doing this"
H - "try this and this it must be software"
S - "tried still looks like you"
H - "try this and this"
S - "okay..."
H - "oh it was us will have a fix for you next time we make a release build in a month" (no apology)

I am stupid, sometimes even in a concious way, to make sure I don't make a stupider mistake.

Based on context pretty sure "the s.o." = "my significant other". Use of "the" instead of "my" is very confusing though.

If say gf, I get people bitching at me for using this place as a blog. Must be impersonal and cold or else.

"Why didn't you fix it? Don't you know about all these bugs?"
"Well if nobody reports them, we aren't aware of them."
"Then maybe you should try harder."
I've actually had this conversation. With a real person.

I think "the s.o." feels better, since you omit the word person from the phrase anyway.//notmymothertongue
Though from Swedish, the direct translation is "better half", and you put a "my" before it.
Edit: I think I'm the biggest "my personal blog" person in this thread. Feel bad about it every time I post something like that, but do it again.

My better half would probably be a better description anyway.

It's so dumb but there's a certain satisfaction when you recognize a name you raided earlier in clash of clans and you look at the log and see they failed miserably in their revenge attempt >

I think Superior Officer and Significant Other in that context are pretty much interchangeable anyways.

So Max Brooks is gonna do an AMA in a bit, I want to pester him until he confirms that giving WWZ to Brad Pitt was the worst decision he's ever made in his life.
