Lol "undeniable the best" slop! 102 pages of slop research that no human will ever read. Is the use case to have a slop agent then create a slop summary of it?

The developer outrage over MassTransit going commercial was completely justified. It was a poor decision that will likely not lead to prosperity. But it's not too late, and I'd love to see Chris Patterson change course to find a path to success. Here's how: blog.inedo.com/inedo/from-fos…

Windows 11 IoT Enterprise is absolutely amazing - it's like an OS from an alternative universe where Microsoft isn't bundling slopware or constantly forcing malware "updates"

Thoughts on the backlash against MassTransit, AutoMapper, MediatR, etc? Personally, I think developers are justified to be upset and there's a much better path for .NET FOSS commercialization. Here's my take: blog.inedo.com/inedo/from-fos…

Microsoft is in the business of web hosting now. Making things run faster so your customers buy less sever time is really dumb. The smart move is to invest in AI slop generators that write slow, buggy code that requires more sever time.

I'm relaunching the Tokyo .NET Developers Meetup this July at a new venue. We have one speaker lined up already but searching for a second. This time we will have pizza and beverages, which we couldn't have in the Microsoft Japan HQ boardroom 🤣

Why isn't Copilot integrated into more things? I shouldn't have to press a button on an elevator when I can just have a conversation with an agent on which floor I want

I guess Microsoft Excel no longer supports square brackets in file names? Which is frustrating when you've been using them for years... Do they even bother testing these days, or have they just gone all in on GitHub Copilot BingAI coding/testing?

Attempt #7 to uninstall Microsoft's third-rate Chat GPT from Office. We'll see how long it stays off the navigation. Microsoft please take the hint - no one wants your shitty BingAI. Stop pushing this garbage on your paying customers.

Incredible. Microsoft's Partner program (renamed yet again to "AI Cloud Partners") publishes program details exclusively in graphic-heavy PDF formats. Can you guys please ask your BingAI copilot to convert this into a web page?

Aaaand BingAI Copilot has returned within 24 hours of uninstallation. Microsoft please make this a paid feature. We, your loyal customers, will pay you even more money to not have your third-rate ChatGPT malware infect your once great tools

The most braindead use of AI I've seen to date: adding a Frequently-Asked Question link that opens a chatbot with "possibly inaccurate" content sourced from an article... also linked on the same page. Is this really how Microsoft thinks people want to integrate BingAI Copilot?

Doing some Vibe Structural Engineering, calculating load distribution for cantilever supports. ソーシャルメディアでの反応 ("Social Media Reactions"). Wait, what? But I'm sure the rest is totally fine. And the next model will get it all right. And now back to a textbook...

Exactly this. If you slap a commercial license on your FOSS project, you will lose goodwill AND still be poor. Instead, start a business and use all that goodwill to accelerate marketing blog.inedo.com/inedo/from-fos…
