From #Copilot, to #Azure AI and #Prompty, to their developer first focus, leading #GitHub, #VSCode being the long bet that paid off, to the future of a doctor’s bedside manner assisted with AI.
Microsoft is all-in on AI and Build 2024’s discussions and announcements proves it.
I've used their operating systems for more than 30 years. And I've used their development tools and databases for more than 25 years.
I haven't been enamored with them since they went all out with Azure. I've found no value in any of the Azure offerings. In fact, they've made my professional life much more difficult. Now they're cramming AI and CoPilot in, up, and down every one of our orifices. I don't want any of it.
It's become difficult to think of them as a technology leader. There's very little coming from MS that feels innovative or that makes life better for me or my customers. The persistent feeling I get is that they're looking for every angle they can find to monetize their relationship with me and other customers and end users.
It took me several years to fully divorce myself from Google.
It's looking more and more like a divorce from Microsoft is imminent.
Was dies genau bedeutet und wie man es verhindert mit Updates oder Alternative #API's gibt muss ich mir noch ansehen.
»Fluent Bit – Schwere Sicherheitslücke bei vielen #Cloud-Anbietern entdeckt:
Das #OpenSource-Programm #FluentBit wird unter anderem von allen großen Cloud-Anbietern wie #AWS und #Google genutzt. Bei der #Protokoll-#Software wurde jetzt eine kritische #Schwachstelle entdeckt, die mehrere Angriffe (#DoS) erlaubt. Ein #Update wird dringend empfohlen.«

Of geek interest: UUIDs have been around for a long time and they work well and interoperate fine, but the specification space is a mess. So the IETF just shipped RFC9562; it has a fine consideration of the history and the trade-offs involved in all the different flavors of UUIDs, and is well-written and I think, as of now, the place to start looking if something UUID-flavored is puzzling you. Strong work! https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9562.html
@timbray
“UUID should be represented by the "hex-and-dash" string format consisting of multiple groups of uppercase or lowercase alphanumeric hexadecimal characters “
Every time I’m handling uuids in code I need to remember to think about case. I have seen resource IDs in azure recently consisting of multiple uuids in the one resource ID string. where some UUIDs are in caps and others are lower case. In the same ID string. But if you were building that resource ID string to use in an azure SDK you would have to respect which UUIDs are in caps and which are lc otherwise it will not be useable. It’s an absolute nightmare.
because the standard allows both and some library code has not implemented the standard correctly, we get issues with case. #Azure#UUID
Learning #Azure would be a lot easier if the documentation was up to date and things on the portal didn’t just hang or stop working at random intervals. Ffffuu
🤡 At Microsoft, years of security debt come crashing down
「 For many critics of Microsoft, the events of the past nine months are the logical conclusion of a company that has ridden the wave of market dominance for decades and ignored years of warnings that its product security and practices failed to meet the most basic standards.
“In a healthy marketplace, these would be fireable offenses,” 」
I've started documenting various issues\problems that I face in my #sysadmin role when working in #Azure.
My first technical post is all about the challenges faced when securing #Microsoft#SQL in a multi-tenancy environment. I will write more as and when I come across other interesting issues!
"Ich will nichts mehr von zwanzigstelligen Passwörtern, freiwilligen Cyber-Sicherheitssiegeln und BSI-Grundschutz hören, bis das BSI die skandalösen Sicherheitsvorfälle bei #Microsoft offen anspricht und auch endlich konkrete Maßnahmen ergreift, die geeignet sind, diese Gefahr für unsere Infrastruktur zu verstehen und zumindest einzugrenzen. DHS und CISA haben gezeigt, dass das geht."
Sehr schade - ich fand ihr Interview mit #jungundnaiv wirklich vielversprechend und mit ehrlichem Drang für mehr Sicherheit getrieben. Es scheint politisch nicht opportun zu sein, Sicherheit über die enge Microsoft-Kundenbeziehung zu priorisieren.
