      Why would an IT person be involved in helping someone learn the basics of business tooling? That's like the operator of a printing press being assigned to help someone illiterate read because he "works with words."

      In my example I imagined the company I work for hiring someone like this, and that would fall to me (or my equal ranked co-worker). Appropriate or not, at least they'd learn the right way the first time!

      Assuming you know that stuff. If the company is hiring people unable to do their jobs in that role, why would they not make the same mistake in your role?

          At least know what a URL is and how to put it into a browser!

          But IE 11 hijacks it anyway

          Example 1: www.bundystl.com will go to the webpage
          Example 2: wtf.bundystl.com will go to Bing

          Why? because I did not preface it with http://

          Seriously MS, why? It is an option to disable, but that then disables ALL searching in the URL bar.

            Not true. If you have an "accident" because you didn't know how the car works you are liable for having driven irresponsibly.

            I'm not sure how one would prove this. Are you saying that traction control alters the car's handling so radically in one way or another that it would cause a person to be considered irresponsible? I don't see it.

              Yes, traction control, when it activates, does change the way a car handles. Driving in the snow with a car without traction control, and a car with traction control is very different.

                  This is one thing I don't get every other browser has smart detection for urls. IE uses strictly standards based url format thinking that's better. Who even uses http:// or www. most of the time anymore?

                    My truck doesn't even have traction control.

                    However I think this topic has gone way way off topic already.

                      Are you suggesting that this topic..... lacks traction control?

                            They are intentionally driving traffic to Bing search results of course. That is the reason.

                              www isn't a standard, never was. It was a convention, at best.
