Even 5-7 years ago Linux deployments were dominant in new Azure services. with release of Azure Linux distro by MSFT i am not seeing any point for developers not using Linux as main dev machine setup unless they are bound to it corp security compliance policies.

@MichaelOkun technically a lot of listed points of actions like using wearables are available in industry for decades for now without any progress due to disconnected highly regulated HIPAA datasets. not sure that regular progression Parkinson's scale data is available at national level.

better later than never. long time overdue. hopefully will have more reasons to boot into windows rather than playing age of empires once in 4 months.

The team and I have spent the past several months analyzing feedback from the community. What came through was the voice of people who care deeply about Windows and want it to be better. Read this blog post to learn more about what we're doing in response as we look to raise the bar on Windows 11 quality. Please keep the feedback coming, to help us shape the future of Windows together. https://t.co/dzYYGc2SIp

opencode as an pr review agent in homelab gitea instance.llm flagging issues in PR and on the other end the same model is arguing that it's actually not an issue and refuses to fix anything. Agentic loop. 😂. at least it cost me 0 to debug through 40 local runs.

@shanselman i wish MSFT get s little bit closer to earth and make office 365 copilot to allow to create files and not copy paste from chat window. make simple merging of 2 pdf files in OneDrive possible through copilot before asking users pay more

[George Trifonov @GEOTRIF]

isn't just me? but i have a strange feeling that after multi billion investments into AI and thousands of laid off i can't simply tell office 365 copilot to merge two pdf files in OneDrive.

@LyalinDotCom @boschusa with local plumbers rate running, from 350 -400$ any appliance becomes disposable from economic perspective unless you want to take an effort to fix it yourself. let me guess you have broken dishwasher? had issues with unit myself

Using @Grok Code Fast 1 model to configure local repository agentic workflow. So far its produces great results very fast with my budget constraints.

[George Trifonov @GEOTRIF]

#agentic #aiworkflows . You ask ai to generate agentic workflow with manual review railguards to find out that ai agent bypass all defined workflow rules to complete task. next step is to ask ai to generate ai agent middleware to watch on ai agent

developer silos and knowledge isolation bubble will only increase with AI usage. before AI you had a chance of breaking the knowledge and experience barriers by following open source projects or switching jobs. right now you need be part of arm race of token consumption

playing with #android app development in androidstudio running in ubuntu powered laptop with 16GB ram. #SuperSlow dev experience. what is your android kotlin dev box specs?

[George Trifonov @GEOTRIF]

Generating new code with ai agents provides decent results for utility/general purpose scripting. But results of code refactoring can lead into serious errors. Gemini cli just silently droped bash function parameters parsing without any clues of why it happened. #aiagents #bugs.

i had no choice but to drop the idea of switching to win11. buying new hardware just to upgrade os is not my family budget priority even after 16 years of contributions to MSFT as FTE.

It's time for Microsoft to have another XPSP2 moment. No more AI, no more features. Just fixes.

When I was working on Windows XP, Blaster hit. It was a big enough deal that we set aside all feature work.

For the next several months, all we did was improve security. We didn't add "security features"; we fixed bugs. Lots of bugs. Until there weren't security bugs to fix anymore.

Then we fixed the ones we didn't know about yet.

Put more simply, we stopped trying to "add value" to the product through features that PMs thought users would like, and instead we focused on the things that had been important for a long time, but overlooked.

Like performance and configurability today.

Rather than trying to improve and add value to the system through new AI features -now-, I argue it's time for Microsoft to stabilize, improve, and make the system more performant. And more usable for power users.

Just for one release. Just till it doesn't suck.

Picture is missing #PERL.
Language usage timeline : Perl -> PerlScript -> Java -> VbScript -> C# -> JavaScript -> Typescript. Now playing with GoLang and thinking about C.

what was your first programming language and which one are you using now?
