Microsoft's cloud services are having a bad day with users worldwide reporting difficulty connecting to Azure. Who needed to get any work done today anyway?

From the article: The outage will doubtless trigger a cold sweat in admins after the events less than two weeks ago, in which an Azure wobble preceded the arrival of CrowdStrike's horseman of the borkpocalypse.

While most users will most likely not bother downloading KB5040527, some may actually want to get the July 2024 non-security update for Windows 11, primarily because of File Explorer. Now even more exploratory

Developers who use Google's Gemini Code Assist tool in Microsoft's Visual Studio Code editor were this month informed the tool would be free to use until Nov. 8, 2024, an extension of a previous July 11 deadline. No one is using it, are they?
Now you can not use it even longer!

Right....
Based on the "AI" chatbots companies put on their websites, do not invest in these companies. Dumber than a brick and I see no intelligence at all. It's like a chatbot that wants to be a human with knowledge but no knowledge.

First of all, not all programmers would make great entrepreneurs. But the parallels between the skills required in programming or better yet software engineering or development, and entrepreneurship is striking. Present company included, of course

You can now leverage Sign CLI for a more secure, modern way to sign your Visual Studio extensions. Sadly, you still need to get a cert separately

It can cause immense stress and can lead to burnout 🤯 Don't worry, we're sharing our mistakes, so hopefully you'll avoid some! Just make it close to prefect

Isn't that a characteristic of the war between MS/Windows and FOSS: Windows is good enough for the masses, but not perfect enough for the FOSS community?
Wasn't IBM very much the same way in the 1970s and 80s: Good enough for the customers, but the competitors could always claim to be more perfect in some aspect? Yet IBM had 70-80% of the computer market.
Or take the TCP/IP vs. OSI protocols network wars: I have never found anyone willing to stand up claiming that the Internet suite was "better" by any technical criteria (and certainly not 'perfect'). Its major benefit was that because the specs are freely available to IT students worldwide, TCP/IP was (and is) what they knew when getting out of school, therefore Internet is there. Because it is there, and good enough, not at all because it is in any way 'perfect'.
To me, it is obvious that the 'perfection' claims of *nix (at least over Windows!) is one of the greatest obstacles to broad acceptance among non-programmers.
Religious freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make five.
