Comment on "Microslop" trends in backlash to Microsoft's AI obsession
Alaknar@sopuli.xyz 2 days agoThe fact that your 30year old business software is still running is just the fact that Windows has built in patches for some common programming patterns used at the time and someone having insight enough can enable/disable them (mostly).
… which is exactly my point. What’s yours?
Oh. And of course it’s badly debuggable and frequently goes wrong.
Not so frequently to cause major disruptions.

Much too frequently, if you need to manage systems for a company.
THAT is my point.
I have spent too many nights unrolling and blocking Windows updates just to keep the fucking MS Exchange server happy.
Yeah it was paid time, but I’m much more happy if the systems I care about just run without hiccups.

No such thing exists, especially with legacy corpo software.
As a Windows admin for the past ~20 years - nonsense.
