Azure's a massive pothole, the biggest waste of time and money, there's five options available.

1 - it's in preview or private preview and sits there for years.

2 - half the platform is poorly stitched together and one blip away from weeks or months of failure.

3 - Management don't care or have any understanding, if you can get the right information to the outsourced support they still won't have any idea (sorry its out of our scope).

4 - ai will fix it.

5 - pay us more money for nothing, we will pull the rug from under your feet soon.

I am amazed they are still in business.

it's like GeoCities from the 1990's, 99% of it looks rubbish, and if any % of it even work's - it would be truely shocking.

The reason of cause is that we are all doing AI wrong ;) 18 billion articles later and I am sure we will still be in the same position.

The great distraction, just think if we spent the same amount of time, effort and money on things that really mattered (climate emergency)

"ship the thing they think is wrong and let reality settle it"

Sorry this just does not work... if what is being shipped is harmful to your own work or the rest of the company I feel I should speak up.

Sometimes the person/people normally doing ego defending often tries to blame everything/one else over their view or project.

If someone is trying to defend a telnet session into a banking server, live on the internet in 2026 then hey dude this has to be called out. (( I am not saying I have been in this position in 2026 )) but even the year I was in this position it was 100% unacceptable and needed fixing. <very simple example>

$7.01 trillion

A deficit occurs when the federal government’s spending exceeds its revenues. The federal government has spent $1.25 trillion more than it has collected in fiscal year (FY) 2026 - another 1.25 trillion to go for the second half of the year.
