Cosmopolitan Libc makes C a build-anywhere run-anywhere language, like Java, except it doesn't need an interpreter or virtual machine. C-once, run anywhere
Well, not everywhere, but desktops anyway.

Microsoft has made OneDrive slightly more annoying for Windows 11 users. Not enough people were paying for the higher storage subscriptions

Slightly?

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been released from prison and has agreed to plead guilty to violating the Espionage Act. Free to leak again
I guess not *technically* industry news, but I think at least adjacent to it. Also, I think of interest to some (or many) who read this newsletter.

probably not, depending on his plea bargain.
I don't have a definitive position on his case.

Agreed. Wikileaks was the last bastion of reliable information about what our politicians do behind the scenes.

The European Commission is concerned Microsoft is giving Teams an unfair advantage over competitors. Next!
I guess tomorrow will have a Google charge?

The EU is a little slow. MS unbundled Teams from MS-Office and Microsoft 365 subscriptions last fall.

Fanboy and all, but this has always struck me as dumb.
Why do we not want more for less and how is that at all anti-consumer?
Oh sure, I see why it might tick off other tech giants. I just don't see how anyone was getting shortchanged because a browser came with their OS or Teams comes with Office.
And really, aren't we just saying you can't build software that does everything?
Where's the limit? Your "app" has two too many features and crosses over into five too many domains?
How would it be handled if MSFT or AAPL decided to just go full on subscription IT services provider?
They'd stop licensing software altogether. The only "license" is you pay them your subscription for them to access their software. Then you get everything your subscription offers.

I hated that Teams was bundled with Office. I have a family Office 365 account (it's cheaper than updating the two Office Professional licenses every five years) and use Microsoft 365 at work. For me to use teams at home prior to the unbundling my personal office license was overridden by my employer's office license, which cause application licensing issues about every 8 to 10 weeks.

Ugh. Well that's not pleasant.
Seems like oversight though. Like they didn't have different keys and bungled that bundle as a result. Seems like if both (office/teams) just did more of the old school "enter your key" and had different keys for the two it would've worked out.
That could be a big argument against them maybe... just having the single key. I imagine they didn't want to get away from the rest of the Office "bundle" and start introducing a key-per-product in the suite but it sure strengthens the case for it actually being "bundled" to begin with.

It was approved by the House and then by the Senate, lastly the President signed it.
Oh wait, that's how a bill becomes a law.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
