@MicrosoftLearn Says the company whose ecosystem is Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Planner, Loop, and three apps that all do the same thing.
Microsoft has so many tools, they need a tool to find their tools.
@moiiikaaa If AI answers everything, schools should teach honesty, because clearly nobody's learning that at home.
Every kid with a chatbot thinks they're a genius until they have to defend the answer out loud. Knowledge you can't explain isn't knowledge.
After 20+ years watching tech hiring evolve, this still hits hard.
Hiring a programmer: You ace DSA, you draw a full AWS architecture from CloudFront to S3, you explain building blueprints, you answer "teamwork conflict" perfectly... and still get the same response "we'll keep your resume on file"...
BRICS 2026 served up the usual: bold talk about de-dollarization, then everyone went home to trade in dollars.
Fresh from the oven, still frozen in the middle. The only thing baking here is the rhetoric.
@the_hindu "Among the most transparent in the world" : Self-certified by the same body that runs the election.
That's like a student grading their own exam and then bragging about the score. Maybe let an independent auditor say it before you put it on a poster.
@IranObserver0 U.S. equipment is only as effective as the force operating it, and when that force retreats without disabling its own vehicles, the hardware simply changes hands.
This isn't a Houthi victory; it's a procurement lesson the U.S. keeps refusing to learn.
@clashreport Hegseth out here sounding like a straight-to-DVD action movie villain — "terrorists to hell, tankers to the ocean floor."
Sir, this is a Pentagon briefing, not a Call of Duty lobby. Catchphrases don't win wars; exit strategies do.
Covering slums with barriers doesn't make them disappear — it just makes them easier to ignore for three days.
Once the summit ends and the cameras leave, the barriers come down and the problems stay exactly where they were.
A curtain isn't a cure.
@unusual_whales Iran using American AI to target U.S. ships is less "enemy innovation" and more "we left the keys in the ignition".
Maybe the real threat isn't the model — it's the fact that anyone with a GPU can point it at a warship.
Someone literally said "AI could kill all humans" 2 days ago.
Today: Iran-linked group used American AI (Claude) to track US Navy warships and probe their comms systems.
We went from "AI could kill humans" to "AI to kill humans" in 48 hours. We were warned.
@unusual_whales Calling anyone worried about the economy a "pessimist" is like calling a drowning man dramatic.
FOX says the economy is fine because the stock market ticked up — meanwhile, nobody can afford eggs.
The only thing strong here is the delusion.
The Houthis are "about to be eliminated" — heard that one in 2015, 2017, 2021, and again last year.
They've outlasted three UN envoys, five Saudi commanders, and everyone's patience. Elimination is scheduled right after the Middle East achieves peace.
@Acyn Sounds rough for a guy with a Yale degree, a venture capital career, and a Senate salary.
Most people aren't tired, they're drowning — but sure, tell us about your struggle. Empathy level: zero.
@RealPresidentT One has maple syrup,
one has sanctions, and one has... ice.
Truly the most terrifying coalition since a PTA meeting. Watch out, they might bore us to death.
@BRICSinfo Modi holds Pezeshkian's hand and calls for de-escalation while Israel's his other best friend and America's his third. The man's juggling three alliances and calling it "strategic autonomy."
Impressive flexibility, zero clarity.
Modi wants a "diplomatic end" to the Iran conflict — said at a BRICS summit where half the members are sanctioned and the other half are arming someone.
