Microsoft is unforgivable. So much time and so much money and they made the world worse whenever they could make a buck. They need to be broken up.

Nah. That’s not how it looks once you start working with it. Its code-equivalent for sure. You probably would not keep your plan files or the working chats though.

fuck microsoft. it absolutely is the big badness of that monster. microsoft's sick monopoly has dragged humanity back by years from where we should be. every hour wasted, every email lost, every skilled career sacrificed to their garbage is the future lost.

This could have been represented in a yo-dawg meme.
i gave it some time, but that's not a good site. it takes forever to explain simple things and never gets to any important and novel idea. i gave up when it turned out that it's just a tree of state machines - for some reason called a 'chart' despite not apparently having any chart-like property.
ugh. it's just a doodling exercise for architecture astronauts. OMG it actually, unironically references UML and has Statechart XML!

maybe you did, but I did not. my attention is valuable to me and I do not pay people to waste it. i had tapes, CDs, mp3s, and paid spotify. this is a well-proven market.

they funnelled money and attention to joe rogan. I hate them - not as much as i hate microsoft or oracle - maybe about as much as adobe. but i'm using them because i have not found an acceptable alternative ... yet.

IF this is happening it's gotta be a mistake. Ads on paid spotify will be the end of my subscription.

Re:If AI writes code, should the session be part of the commit?
on Monday March 02, 2026 @11:24AM (#47220090)
Mostly that’s going to be noise. But in some rare occasion I could see it being useful. So my unhelpful notion is that we might need a new thing - leave the commit message as a meaning- dense human-to-human message, and also have a development process flight-recorder log stored alongside. Storage is basically free so why not?
