Rocky made reference to Grant Holliday and I as people who seem to have stuff just work. Its interesting, throughout my computing career I’ve had technology just work for me so it makes be wonder if I have some extra gene or something.

I think what it comes down to is a highly developed sense of “Computer Empathy”. Computer Empathy is when you understand computers, and the software that runs on them from the computers perspective.

What makes me “Run as Administrator” when I go to install a piece of complex software without even first trying to do it any other way? Computer Empathy – I understand that this program “probably” will ask to do something that the computer can’t let it with the user token so I escalate it straight away.

So Rocky, have you tried whispering sweet nothings into your computer’s ear?
