Color me less than impressed. We've installed every version of Visual Studio since 2003 via our company network, and doing it via an internal intranet website doesn't seem like quite the rocket launch they claim.

DeviceScript is a subset of TypeScript that compiles to a custom VM bytecode. The experimental project also includes a Visual Studio Code extension. Combine all the joys of IoT programming, with the joys of JavaScript!
Well, JavaScript-ish.

40kB of wasted space because you couldn't be bothered to learn C++?
What are you even going to do with typescript on an ESP32, bitbang 9 bit SPI or GDMA?
Yeah, right.
This is like their attempt at getting .NET running on these things.
It's a bad idea. Of course, I also think running python on the things is similarly bad, but everyone does it.

I'm ready for life in this city
And my wings have grown almost enough to lift me

It's sort of frustrating when I claw out some optimized code like this https://honeythecodewitch.com/gfx/[^]
and then someone decides that Python is okay to run on something with 300kB of usable SRAM on boot - and that's generous.
Look at this mess
How fast is Python? - MicroPython versus C++ - YouTube[^]
And people still use it.
And then Microsoft makes it *worse*.

This is on top of a lawsuit also meant to prevent the merger. So much for that Call of Duty - Excel crossover I was hoping for

Excel at one time included its own flight simulator as an Easter egg. What more do you want? A VBA macro that runs Doom in a cell?

Of course.
Didn’t Excel also have an Easter Egg to show walls like in Doom? Add a few Nazis to shoot, and we’re there.

Employees using AI in the workplace experienced heightened levels of loneliness, insomnia, and alcohol consumption, according to a global study. So...no change then?
"Employees were separated into two groups, with one told to avoid any use of AI for three days and the second told to interact with their companies’ AIs as often as possible. "
Three days? They studied them for three days? Not even a full four-day week? Did the researchers need to catch a flight home or something? (Of course that could just be Giz's interpretation of the study)

But former PayPal Holdings Inc. executive David Sacks is not a fan of work-from-home (WFH) policies. All this time I've been working from home, I haven't?
Anyone involved in PayPal should know how to create a great company, right? (/sarcasm)

Yes, but it's a great way to maintain a mediocre company.

A lot of opinions in that article but no justification. And everyone who experienced WFH now has anecdotal evidence to contradict those baseless opinions. Nothing stopping them from shoving return-to-office down your throat, but that doesn't mean they can brainwash you into liking it or accepting the lie that it's "more productive." Cat's outta the bag.

During the COVID lockdowns the US saw a huge number of people simply leave the workforce. The reality is they didn't leave, but rather found other employment that meets their financial needs and is emotionally more satisfying. Idiot CEOs are pushing for another round of this flight to lower wages and more personal satisfaction.
