We are launching our newest flagship model and making more capabilities available for free in ChatGPT. This one goes to 'o'
It was either that, or a quote from Office Space (that I'm sure you can guess, but that isn't kid sister safe enough IMO)

"O" might be non-KSS too.

Microsoft has improved the C# Dev Kit for Visual Studio Code (VS Code) with support, Aspire integration and easy SDK acquisition – but developers are complaining of “terrible quality”. But what do they know of C#

The question is... are those "improvements" in the way they are described in the dictionary or in the way they are described in the windows marketing handbook?

Adding features is faster and easier in good code than bad code. "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!"
Beat that strawman!

No fvck Sherlock...
On the other hand... how fast will the good code be transformed into bad code by the additions?

Now, Microsoft Word will use the ‘merge formatting’ option by default. They do listen to feedback (it just takes decades some times)

Unbundling Teams from Office has apparently failed to impress EU regulators. There's a lot they should face for Teams, but I'm not convinced antitrust is one of them

Yep. It's titan vs. titan in the EU. The complaint was brought by Slack, which is owned by Salesforce.

Since ChatGPT dropped in the fall of 2022, everyone and their donkey has tried their hand at prompt engineering—finding a clever way to phrase their query to a large language model (LLM) or AI art or video generator to get the best results (or sidestep protections). Just let the computer do it

Your statement reflects a philosophy that emphasizes the futility of worrying. Let's break it down:
"If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?": This suggests that if there's a solution to a problem, worrying about it serves no purpose. Instead of worrying, one should focus on finding and implementing the solution.
"If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?": Similarly, if a problem has no solution, worrying about it won't change the outcome. In this case, worrying is also considered futile because it doesn't contribute to resolving the issue.
In essence, your statement advocates for a mindset of addressing problems directly when solutions exist and accepting circumstances when solutions are beyond reach. Worrying, in either case, is seen as unproductive. It encourages a focus on action and acceptance rather than dwelling on uncertainties or difficulties.

Developers are still spending too much time on troubleshooting application performance issues, rendering them incapable of spending enough time on innovation and other productive work, new research has claimed. Nothing up this sleeve, nothing up that sleeve...

The co-author of SQL, the standardized query language for relational databases, has come out in support of the NoSQL database movement that seeks to escape the tabular confines of the RDBMS. SELECT * FROM table not enough?
You mean, sometimes all data isn't tabular? :boggle:

NoSQL databases and their query languages could help perform the tasks relational systems were never designed for. Surprise! There are tasks relational systems were never designed for! And for those there are other tools!
Well, that doesn't affect the tasks that relational systems were designed for. SQL is still a as good a choice for those as ever!
(Side tracking a bit: Why don't we have a selection of relational languages with different properties? SQL is far from perfect! For general programming we have scores of languages of quite varying character. We should have alternatives to SQL as well!)

I feel like every time there's a new NoSQL product both Microsoft and Oracle incorporate it into their RDBMS offerings.

The app is developed by a small group of Microsoft engineers based in Asia, and it’s now getting a big update with an improved “Files Cleanup,” which lets you free up space more easily. I'm sure it will delete files as reliably as Windows Update fixes things
