I don't know why someone down voted this.
I've had several friends block off time on their calendar for i-dont-know-what. It was marked as busy and it could've been anything from napping to elden ring. It's their time.
Though I think a lot of people don't use a calendar for their personal life and I can't relate to that level of chaos. I can't remember my plans and everyone's birthdays in my head.
I think a lot about how one time we spent s few hours estimating how long a project would take. Management came back and said no, that's too long, we'd need to finish in a month.
Well if that's how long it has to take why not lead with that?
Bunch of idiot empty husks doing cargo-cult "agile"
Seems fair. Was a pretty big fuck up. Might deter others from making similar fuck ups.
That was always a bad idea and feeds my mild Cassandra complex.
No government should be relying on private platforms like that.
The suits at Microsoft are out of their fucking minds.
Yes. They are stupid and don't deserve their huge paychecks.
They could've done basically nothing. Maybe security updates. And they would've had a decent brand that kept bringing in money. Their leadership is worse than doing nothing. A dog would make a better ceo.
We need more than resignation. We need real punishments.
Notably, slack doesn't have this problem. Slack pretty consistently behaved exactly as I expected. You have channels organized by topic. You have private messages that are private. You can have group DMs but don't do that. I guess a problem is some people are kind of stupid and don't see why many permutations of non-discoverable chats are a bad idea. My old CEO, who I would not say is a universally smart man, would always create group DMs and I had to tell him if he wants this chat to be canonical put it in the relevant public channel. "We value transparency" he'd say at meetings, and then bork that up.
I have a couple friends who have only ever used Teams and I don't think they realize just how bad it is.
It's kind of infuriating to me that Microsoft can consistently deliver bad products and not die. If a startup released Teams, no one would use it and they would rightfully fail.
I would be more than willing to carry around my own spoon, fork, and more, if it meant less plastic crap everywhere
I used to think "Teams can't be that bad" and then I had to use it for work. It's astonishingly bad. I'm not sure if it's just how they use it at this place, but it's bad.
Everything is a chat. There's no channels. So nothing is discoverable, and if you sort of remember a conversation you have to see if it was in the standup chat, in the planning chat, in a ad hoc chat...
There's no threads. So if you have a chat for say release-123, and someone says "Feature 1 has a bug" and someone else says "Feature-2 has a bug", you can't isolate them in separate threads. It's all flat so they smash into each other.
Everyone who supported the Jan 6 insurrection should be ineligible to hold office per the existing amendments, for starters.
I like the idea. I don't want to use facebook or similar, but that's where stuff like "BuyNothing" is most active.
Unfortunately, I don't know much about self hosting (beyond what I've picked up working in software development) so I don't see myself running one of these myself. I'd probably use it if it came to my neck of the woods (NYC)
Microsoft should maybe evaluate why so many people read about the alleged horrible AI+Subscription model and went "yeah that sounds like something microsoft would do." Their brand is in the shitter.
Pretty much every decision Microsoft has made for years has been bad. Why not one more?
If someone posted that Valve is moving to a subscription model, much of the response would probably contain "This seems out of character for them"
