You have to use Windows, Teams and Copilot; how many people did I just lose?

Wouldn't mind if people at Microsoft actually dogfed themselves Windows. It's as if the designers and PMs all use a Mac and screw up everything.

Windows 11 shipped with a broken task bar, couldn't even ungroup items. No power users was ever involved in this.

What does it even mean to use "Copilot" these days?

I use the Github Copilot app at work but it's really just a tool that gives models access to our Github repos and my local clones of them, and it's been super helpful to just tell it to reference other repos for patterns or integrations or whatever, get agents and an orchestrator to look at multiple repos to make a change across several projects and then implement them, etc.

And yeah you can use a selection of whatever model, I was using Opus 4.6 for a while, now I'm on GPT-6 Sol. It's been a very good experience.

Well, it's bad, but at least it's not Linux or MacOS, so there's some silver lining.

Gets my work done... I know there are better tools but at the end of the day I get my paycheck

"Fine. Please no. I'm out..." in that order
