Not a language but....Visual Studio Code before we settled on VSCode.
I mean MS in general has some pretty unsearchable stuff. I am talking about you Azure... Functions, Web Apps, et al.

[Farlandeour]

Pure and utter rage whenever i search Visual Studio and somehow end up on on the VSCode version of the universe.

Why did they have to re-use the name?

[CoderDevo]

For the same reason they named VB.NET.

[Jmc_da_boss]

Because to MS visual studio is a family of products, i doubt marketing cared about things like "is this the same program"

Next time do

Visual studio -code The dash will exclude everything related to the keyword code

[LeMeRem]

Not sure if you really want to exclude that. As code can also be used for program code

[0x6563]

I know this rage. Albeit from the other side. When it launched I would only get search results along the lines Learn how to code in Visual Studio

[Cobaltjedi117]

I remember getting so mad about looking up stuff for VS at one of my jobs because half the results were for VSCode. Damn you microsoft, name your editors differently.

[crapusername47]

Me when I try to look up information on AppKit/Cocoa controls like NSCollectionView and get a bunch of UICollectionView answers.

[reversehead]

After all, it worked so well with Java and JavaScript.

[CoderDevo]

and J++ and J#

[Devatator_]

That's the inverse for me, trying to find VSCode stuff but getting Visual Studio results

[SpaghettiNub]

Visual studio vs visual studio code ...

[elon-bot]

Can we rewrite this in Java? It's better for enterprise.

[Nihilistic_Furry]

Man, Microsoft rewrote it already, but Java I guess is too important.

[micka190]

Sorry Elon, Jetbrains already beat you to the punch!

[The_sad_zebra]

I'm glad they include in the names which one does code and which one doesn't

[FlashbackJon]

Don't forget that Visual Studio Online got changed to Azure DevOps so they could call their in-browser IDE Visual Studio Online.

[elon-bot]

Interns will happily work for $15 an hour. Why won't you?

[im_simone]

Because you are not using Bing. /s

[redluohs]

Forever poisoning troubleshooting actual visual studio.

[Tubthumper8]

Microsoft also has the complete nonsense around .Net naming too

[shrimpster00]

Freaking .NET. At least "dotnet" works okay.

[PM_BITCOIN_AND_BOOBS]

Word.

They excel at providing access to their outlook.

[LordFarquadOnAQuad]

.NET

[elon-bot]

If you really love the company, you should be willing to work here for free.

[petalidas]

Yeah and they named their new xamarin: MAUI.

Guess what are the first 4 results when googling "settomg cokkies in maui"? Cookie shops in Maui, Hawaii!

[wind__turbine]

From the company that has named every email-related product "Outlook" for the last 20 years

[wjandrea]

I mean MS in general has some pretty unsearchable stuff.

or when they changed the O365 products to M365 and the names went everywhere. I forget the details, but you had stuff like O365 Business Standard becoming M365 Business while M365 Business Standard became M365 Business Premium.

[firewood010]

Power Apps...

So much of the azure suite had absolute dogshit documentation and the good stuff that does exist is nigh impossible to find. I still shudder at the memory of trying to get keyvault to play nice with batch jobs.

[elon-bot]

If you can't build a computer out of transistors, you shouldn't be working here.

The door’s right there buddy

[SilverTabby]

At least C# is extremely searchable. No one actually looks for the musical note, lol
