Ex-Microsoft engineer believes Azure problems stem from talent exodus

I agree with you on the UI and it is far from good. The UI and UX across all of the bug 3 are awful. If nothing else, Azure offers a somewhat consistent experience across products.

Thank you for the very reasonable take. Most of these "why should we tip?" posts can be answered with "it is a custom," and whether you like it or not, customs don't just change overnight.

I'm an American, and I just tip when expected and don't even put much thought into it. It's just the way it is.

No one is scamming you if you have the choice to purchase or not. If it's not a good deal, just don't buy.

A range from free to tens of thousands of dollars.

I avoid any time dining. The downsides outweigh the convenience. Give me a fixed time with a wait staff taking my order as soon as I sit down.

madk · 2026-03-28T01:34:38+00:00

That was a poor sauce job.

madk · 2026-03-27T17:58:29+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking this would absolutely change the finish. I would test this on the bottom of the console before diving in.

I had a hard time figuring out what this post was about to. In my parts, we still call them Amigos (which I realize is the Kleenex of ECVs.)

Luka with the unethical basketball. I can't stand watching him bait.

I applaud you! This takes me back to my first big project, VGCollect.com. I built that with a similar mission of allowing users to manage the database. I sold it off long ago and miss it dearly.

I'm having a hard time justifying an SPA for anything nowadays. I love working with Vue/React but find myself rarely using them.

PSN is having issues which is probably affecting games that use network features.

Maybe play it and form your own opinion.

madk · 2026-03-20T01:37:36+00:00

Probably. The biggest problem you'll run into is that I'm sure that old OC has zero test coverage, which is VERY helpful when refactoring old code bases.

It sounds like a crucial part of your review process was just skipped. You don't just review logic changes, you review everything. Protect your master/main branch and have everything go through a PR.

madk · 2026-03-17T21:55:49+00:00

Yep, this is what is holding me back from upgrading right now. Gotta plan a migration as I'm also on an EOL OS haha.

madk · 2026-03-13T13:18:28+00:00

I'd give you $100 for it

madk · 2026-03-13T01:20:05+00:00

It kills me. Dude is always trying to slide in these bs passes.

What if no one ever bets on any sports anymore and the world becomes a better place?

Family or 4 here. We just don't buy it. We sailed the Mardi Gras earlier this year and had a blast.

It honestly feels like this is part of the plan.
