Why would they need a russian monarch?
I prefer mzotorcycles
The oligarch needs a czar for his serfs.
In the current landscape I’m convinced there will be a increasing market to drive adoption away from Msft products and into open source alternatives. LLM’s make the transition so much easier at the desktop and server level. CTO’s can at least start pilots threatening Microslop where it hurts at the most–the enterprise level.
Otherwise, I don’t think a quality ‚czar‘ is going to fix anything given Microslop’s current culture and the fact they clearly don’t give a shit about consumers.
This will be a hot seat imho.
Per the article MS is using AI to write 30% of its code. With recent quality issues in Windows updates and its Azure issues, it sounds as if this person will be assigned to ensure the quality standard is always high.
Well, good luck.
The vibe coding isn’t working out
„Lets not address the decision that led us here. We appoint a Czar instead, because that sounds like we are serious.“
Over complicating … all they need to do is listen to customers, remove the crap from the products and services that the customers have been clamoring to be removed.
Don’t forget to bring up AI slop
Lmao what happened, I thought AGI has already replaced all developers and SaaS apps were superceded by agents 🤣
Why? Isn’t their AI creating top quality work?
Code quality was pretty good until AI came around.
Ya think?
Slopya Slopdella giving us more reasons to hate microslop all the time. Quality Czar -> let’s try clean up this slop copilot sharted out.
We didn’t listen to our customers and said, you don’t know what you want but we do. We didn’t listen to our customers who said they didn’t want to trash perfectly working computers running windows 10, want you want is to spend a good amount on a pc and new OS that performs the same tasks as the old one but with features the customers never asked for. Then have the audacity to start backpedaling when there is a market shift away from their platform. Product management 101 ”what problem are you trying to solve for the customer”.
Hope they pay double the wage. Having to go over the code that AI violently shit into the repo is not going to be fun!
How about a *“fuck-off czar“* where every time you try to shove ai into a product or use ai to code or quality test your software they show up and tell you to fuck off.
How about a simple shit filter? Just hire one regular guy to check every feature and if he says it’s shit then don’t do it
Meh. They don’t even manage to have the acceptance quality for users demand.
What they need is a new CEO. One who’s smart enough to recognize AI is a con, and not the answer to everything.
Wonder what would happen if the first instruction of the quality czar is: „Stop using AI immediately and hire actual talent“.
Wait they might be admiting that QA is valid after getting rid of most of their QA team years ago? Who could have known? If only every tech in the world at the time had stood up and said „Are you fucking mental?“ …oh wait we did.
Just one? Poor guy will be burned out in a week.
How about rehiring a QA department?
I thought my mouse was dying. Then I switched off ‚Enhance Mouse Pointer Precision‘. The mouse is fine. Windows 11 is broken.
