geez

sorry but, how much SHIT is it going to take to make AI good?

Most businesses don't need google or netflix level engineering. People on HN are outliers. The corporate world needs simple CRUD apps so tech savvy but non developer employees can stop grinding away at Excel.

Yeah thanks guys. Now I have outlook/teams on my phone and am expected to be reachable 24/7. If not, I'm expected to respond to text, and share my phone number with my colleagues. Those I don't directly share it with will get it from someone who knows me.

I'm just an observer. Microsoft has invested billions in OpenAI and can access their IP as a result. It might even be possible MS hopes that OpenAI fails and doesn't allow them to restructure to continue to acquire outside funding. You can go directly to the announcement of their in-house model offerings and they are clearly using this as a recruiting tool for talent. Whether it makes sense for the cloud providers to build their own models is not for me to say, but they may not have a choice given how quickly OpenAI/Anthropic are burning cash. If those two fail then they're essentially ceding the market to Google.

These days anyone can spin up a developer account and check it out. Near as I could tell, you can create abstract 'objects' and link them to datasets/columns in the environment. And then you can link objects together. It's basically just an ER modeling tool, but they have great sales and seemed to have convinced people that they are constructing ontologies.

Microsoft is building it's own in-house LLM's based on OpenAI's IP. Google builds it's own models.

Toad is already an incredibly well known tool for developing with oracle db's

These people make me hate working. They don't want to pair with anyone. Understanding work at all is anathema to them. Their brains are too large for such trivial matters.

You're right, we're not strictly implementing things according to the spec/oauth 2.1

Ah nice an AI generated MCP gateway. I can't wait to see how many different agent/tool protocols we'll run through this year, and how many gateways. I just spin up oauth2proxy to handle authentication with istio gateway. Maybe I should be deploying piles of unknown code instead?

You're lucky to not have experienced what came before Teams in most corporate environments.

My first boss told me that it's the primary role of a good manager to keep bullshit away from your most competent staff and 'manage' everyone else. I've worked for a number of organizations with different ideas of management since then, but that has been my guiding principle.

One thing I ponder after remembering previous tech booms, is that they often left behind something extremely valuable (fiber). With all the GPU datacenters rolling out, what next bubble can take advantage of this boon, if it is one?

Many of the executives I've been around are extroverts with ADD. They love open offices.
