There are people who know how to communicate with other people. Other people know how to communicate with computers. Scott is one of the few that can do both.
This was such a good talk Scott. I appreciate how you talk about things you were naïve to and the changes you implemented. As someone just starting my career this is the exact type of thing I needed to hear. I also appreciate that you didn't gloss over things, nor did you talk them to death. Perfect balance with some quick fun humour to boot.
Honestly that seems to be the challenge in Win11 with explorer the only fix I’ve found is to end the task and it refreshes and starts working again. Dope discussion! And as always you walk us through an interesting challenge. I love the podcast but definitely love the video platform more.
back in 2000 on my way out, I told the IT manager this box ran the Silk Performer license server, and turned the software itself over to the dev manager. Several years later visiting, I asked friends if they wanted to meet for coffee. they wanted to meet at the office. The dev's could not install the license server software. I said the license server should already exist, they said it could not possibly still exist. We walked over to a cubicle, and there was the box still running, untouched for many years. (the IT manager left shortly after I did). No one thought to ask what this box in the empty cubicle that was powered on was for. Any dev could have logged on with the standard corporate windows server admin password (go ahead, laugh)
I still have an old Dell box (single Core 2 Duo) in the shed that runs windows 2003 64 bit (last sp) on a single 36gb scsi drive (parallel drive) and it is a seriously fast machine. Boot up, window opening etc is super fast
Hanselman is the best PR guy MSFT has for developer community. It used to be Scott Guthrie, but since Satya told him to act like the EVP that he is, stop making Red-Shirt sessions.
I stopped a fourth of the way though. Couldn’t stand the self promotion and the social justice start left a bad taste. I’m tied of being bashed in this field for my skin color and gender.
If someone gives you something for free... Never ever let your website (or anything at all) run on it - and never rely on (or expect) it running in the next month... ;-)
Funny stories combined with solid technical content, Scott is a very good teacher :)
Indeed.

Ha! Nice Nick Chapas call out! Hanselman is like the nicest guy in software dev.
"It's not Nick Chapsas money" hahaha :D made my day
Thoroughly enjoyed this talk by Scott Hanselman. I could probably hear him talk for days at a stretch.
This must be one of the most insightful talks I've seen so far, charm and wit combined with technical knowledge. Great teacher indeed.
Man, what a great anecdote! Inspiring!
Impressive talk as usual by Scott.
amazing content. love it. scot is legendary

This guy is awesome!
🤣I have experienced production app running on a PC under someone's desk. Yes, the hard disk was virtualized at one point.
Funny, informative, inspiring. The hanselminutes spent was worth it.

You are such an awesome dude !
This man is a legend
Nick Chapsas money :)
what a great talk :D
Just three words: interesting, educational and entertaining. Ok, that was four words. ;-)
Great talk, funny stories
The IT situation of the university lab I work in is pretty much the same

what went wrong with Microsoft products? Windows 2000 works like a charm.
24:24 switches to linux because hosting is cheaper :D
As always... pragmatic genius.
i love this guy
If the blog articles were not in XML, the Blog would even be less memory consuming.
Nice, I enjoyed that one.
The cameraman is going crazy with him walking all the time
my god, the 1.zip comment (regrettably) hits home... on million dollar projects, no less.
I'm feeling personally attacked right now because I find dragging DLLs across explorer windows simple and satisfying
OG
Hanselman international seems to be nonprofit ☺️ , great content!
Cool!
Hanselman show that his is a good computer guy and story teller at the same time.

The camera person must hate him
It's not Nick Chapsas money 😂
So many good jokes lost on this crowd!
I've been working with people in tech who don't look like me for over 30 years. It ain't new.
😀😀😀😀😀😀
"I know where everything is. So shut up!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
so full of himself
Very basic talk just for beginner.
I don't care what you look like mate.
I'm not a fan of the self promotion parts.
Technical stuff is good though.
Wasted one hour of lifetime watching this garbage.
Could have been half hour at 2x
Why do you think this? Not technical enough?
aww bless, because closing the tab was too difficult?
