and now you can use AI to create even more unnecessary features even quicker.
i think that having teams for each product is an antipattern. if the team was purely a "mail task force", the workers could be placed to work on Exchange or the Azure related bullshit. But now, the Outlook team has to constantly create unnecessary work for itself.

except in ipv4 getting a link-local address means "I fucked up DHCP" and isn't really meant to be a feature
it didn't really work in ipv4 land, and as per the OP, doesn't work in ipv6 land too. Just give everything a proper address and leave link-local to mdns or whatever it was meant to support
I use qwen3.5 locally and it often outputs a lot of claude-isms. Claude actually stopped telling me that I'm absolutely right with every message, but Qwen still does.
I think that the convergence of these tics is just a symptom of distillation.
>But why the fuck should any company pay for an ad when the user explicitly searched for their product?
If you don't buy out the top-place for the query, someone else will. In a better case a competitor - imagine Facebook Marketplace being the top result for "ebay". In the worst - a phishing site. The latter happens quite often for software searches.
I've been thinking recently of creating a programming language where you write mostly python, but can just "hand wave" away the boring stuff for the agent to do. If you don't want to deal with it, just type in a prompt or pseudocode and it will get filled in. Kinda like using the ai-assisted image editing software.
the main difference being that you don't switch between an agent chat window and the code. Just leave a note to the agent and go back to coding as usual, while the agent fills in the gap.
After using ThinkPads for years I decided to get a MacBook Pro just to see what's up with them. I went on a 2-week vacation so I didn't even touch my work ThinkPad for this time.
After I returned I was immediately annoyed by the shit hinge, but pleased by the keyboard. ThinkPad keyboards are so nicer than MacBooks. Plastic is just nicer to the touch than metal. If Hackintosh was still possible I'd want a ThinkPad with an upgraded screen running MacOS
