It reeks of a consultant who sold upper management via a gated demo.

Google was always incorrectly viewed as a paragon.

In the comments its not just chrome that is affected.

Its apparently all Chromium browsers.

Timing is about right for it to be a batch of newly minted CS grads getting into their first corporate jobs.

Mentions UBlock seems.to be fast and safe, but that the API used lets extensions look at everything you do amd can dramatically affect browser speed. Implying that UBlock Origin is responsible for Chrome being such a memory Hog and that they, not Google, are the ones after your data.

What a garbage article. Chock full of google propaganda and fear mongering.

Based on Google Gemini and the sheer number of restrictions Microsoft had to place on Bing to prevent chaos.

I think saying that it “works” is a stretch.

Bing also grabs w3Schools as the top / AI result. However, the AI result also lets you swap to a Stack Overflow result.

And it has a bar across the top linking to different parts of the official website, including the landing page for the documentation.

I know its not chatgpt4, I never said it was?

That paragraph is on its own because it is a different topic. In this case I was using my own experience experimenting with chatgpt4 as to why I won’t be using it any time soon.

The example shown is setting a timer, then copilot suggests timeright value.

Contextually, it is bad autocomplete.

In practice, chatgpt4 is incapable of producing code to my coding standards. Edit: to clarify, its incapable of doing that in a timely enough manner that it saves me any time.

Clippy was occasionally useful as it could offer shortcuts you didn’t necessarily know about.

This is just bad autocomplete

Yes, I’ve been doing this for years. It’s great for both code readability as well as debugging.

No, not always. I know of a very major firm that uses google suite for everything but chat and video calls. They use MS Teams because its just that much better than google’s alternative. From the chats Ive had, the issue with Slack there is that someone high up in their IT stack hates it.

Best project Ive worked on, we went and implemented a scrict code standard, based on the code standard that a firm that contracted my team to do the work had.

Worked perfectly. Beautiful, maintainable code. Still used today without major reworks, doesnt need it. Front end got several major updates, but the back end uses what is now called microservice architecture, and we implemented it long before the phrase was common.

Got the opportunity to go back to it this year. Devs with the 2nd firm not only ignored all of the documentation we put out, they ignored their own coding standards document.

If nothing else, there is space for a competitor to MS teams in the corporate space.

Everyone else is ending up on teams, but no one actually likes it.

That’s awesome. I suppose I should look into lending a hand in the dev department.

The bug exists on mbin as well. (Kbin.run)

That on kbin ,*and mbin, if your post isn’t on page 1 it won’t go to your post if you’re trying to reply to a notification.

*edit.
