“Think lightly of yourself and deeply of the world” - Musashi

[Boze Herrington, Library Owl 😴🧙‍♀️ @SketchesbyBoze]

Millennials acquired a level of cultural literacy that seems unthinkable today because we grew up being relentlessly exposed to films, cartoons, songs from the 1930s and ‘40s. We had media that wasn’t afraid to reference old books & cinema, that respected our intelligence.

@nuel_szy Ai guess they didn't see that coming.

Microsoft, 2 weeks ago, forced “voluntary” layoff packages on 60,000 people - close to 1/3 of its workforce - citing the competency of AI as its reasoning. Outlook has had a WORLD wide outage since 2pm EST. How’s that AI working now?

Amazing. Did they protest Republicans a single time over the past 2 years?

[Suhr Majesty @ULTRA_MAJESTY]

Microsoft spent billions telling us AI would run the world.

Today it couldn't run email.

[Gav 🇨🇦 @oakridge604]

As an IT Manager who is forced to give updates to the entire company when systems are down, I have mad respect for how empty these updates are. So often we have no clue what's going on but still have to push out an update. I'm definitely incorporating this into my future comms.

営業部長「Outlookが使えないんだが」

情シス「Microsoft側で障害が発生しています」

営業部長「こんな忙しい時に。いつ直るんだよ？」

情シス「復旧時刻は未定です」

営業部長「はぁ？Microsoftには連絡したのか？」

情シス「公式の障害情報を確認しています」

営業部長「いや、電話しろよ」

情シス「……電話ですか？」

営業部長「そうだ。直接話した方が早いだろ」

情シス「世界規模の障害なので、現在対応中かと」

営業部長「じゃあ責任者を出してもらえ」

情シス「……Microsoftの責任者ですか？」

営業部長「そうだ。こっちは金払ってるんだろ？」

情シス「世界中の企業が払っています」

営業部長「うちは長年使ってるんだ。優先してもらえ」

情シス「……」

営業部長「とにかく電話して、何時に直るか聞いてくれ。それか、うちだけ先に直してもらえるよう交渉しろ」

情シス「世界規模の障害なんですが」

営業部長「そこを何とかするのが情シスの仕事だろ？」

情シス「……分かりました。確認します」

営業部長「最初からそうすればいいんだよ」

情シスは、静かにMicrosoftのサポートページを開きました。

そこには「復旧時刻未定」と書かれていました。

情シスは、しばらくその画面を見つめていました。

その間にも、営業部長からの催促電話は鳴りやみませんでした。

Microsoftの復旧時刻は、誰にも分かりませんでした。

ただ一つ、分かっていることがありました。

営業部長からの次の電話は、必ず来るということです。

本当に怖いのは、Microsoftの障害じゃない。

月額料金を払えば、情シスがMicrosoft本社を動かせると思われていることだった。

@NeoliberalAkiho She's not going to win for the same reasons Bernie lost by like 10 million votes in 2020 and she'll probably do worse than he did.

[Kevin Fay @OldManFay12]

I have no doubt there’s a 60 year old engineer out there who took Microsoft’s buyout offer from last month that did a bunch of undocumented work his bosses didn’t know about to keep things running and could fix this in 2 minutes, but alas Microsoft needs more $$$$ for AI capex

[Booker G. Washington @BookerGWash]

American schools mostly don’t teach Reconstruction! Most Americans take their last US history courses in high school. It jumps from Revolutionary War, to Civil War, to World War II.

Then, Black history (if taught) is slavery, emancipation, then jumps 90 years to Rosa Parks/MLK!

[EngiNerd. @mainbhiengineer]

Microsoft services along with outlook is down for more than 12hrs now.

When AI writes code, AI reviews codes, human engineers are mass laid off and your production code is totally dependent on Copilot for fixing but then copilot is also down, you get this Absolute Cinema.

[xenoglossy 🪐 @Sorcerer0fEld]

Go off welfare king. We have so much to learn from you about why we can't afford a future.

[𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗠𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 @txsalth2o]

Maybe laying off 60,000 of your most tenured employees wasn't the best idea.....

@Microsoft @Outlook

[🇨🇦🇫🇷👑⚜️Charles IV⚜️👑🇪🇺🇺🇦 @Charles_string_]

@magi_jay Sorry but he's ours.

[Amelia @amelia_tweetz]

Microsoft has laid off thousands of employees while investing billions in AI. Now Outlook goes down, and everyone is depending on human engineers to get things running again.

It’s interesting how companies keep talking about replacing people until something breaks and they need people to fix it.
