I'm convinced at this point they're letting the vibe coders write the OS updates. It's the only reasonable explanation for how they keep breaking core OS functionality that shouldn't even be getting updates.

I was going to try and defend them by saying that given the number of recent layoffs, and the push from the higher-ups, they're not necessarily vibe coders by choice.

But then I remembered, I don't give a shit about a company where devs think that rendering characters to a terminal emulator is a PhD-level problem, and that it's a good idea to use react native in your start menu, to only name two.

They are forcing AI on everyone in Microsoft.

There was an article about it, managers force to use AI to parse workers self reports produced by AI to make sure everyone and everything uses AI.
