Why does all #software insist on being your buddy these days?
Can we go back to the old days where instead of trying to slide into your DMs, and be your best frend, software was a recalcitrant old hag in a back alley who spat out an obscure error code that at least when you looked it up in a knowledge base told you exactly what you had done wrong and what, if anything, you could do about it? This…

It's not a language or a framework that I ever use, but I think that "don't be too clever" is one of the most important rules that every software developer should abide by.

Content warning: "AI notetakers", little cautionary tale
Hadn't seen this variation before.
Recently, a colleague has had that thing where, un-asked-for by them, their "AI notetaker" tries to go to all the meetings in their calendar. This time it was double trouble: they somehow had _two_ bots trying to come into every meeting citing their name. Consequently, a few of us have had to boot out these bots at the start of a meeting, when the person themself wasn't there.
Yesterday, the _real_ person tried to go to a meeting. The host (who was a bit flustered due to connection problems) mistook their name for the bot appearing yet again, and kicked them out! so they missed the meeting!
(I found out only afterwards that they'd been trying to get on, and what had happened.)
=
Luckily it wasn't a meeting which hinged on this one person's presence, so not super high stakes. I was just thinking about it again now, and the phenomenon of "unwanted bot-behaviour causes knock-on problem". It reminded me of this more-troublesome episode, which I'd also read about yesterday:

Content warning: cautionary tale: removing free tiers that people rely on
"After 18 years of providing free, production-ready container images to millions of developers worldwide, Bitnami was effectively ending its free tier. ...
"Hock Tan doesn’t do interviews about his strategy. He doesn’t need to. His pattern is so consistent that VMware employees were updating their résumés before the ink dried on the $69 billion acquisition deal ...
"His formula never varies. Buy a company with sticky enterprise customers. Fire thousands of employees—VMware alone lost 2,900 employees by December 2023, according to CRN and The Register. Kill the free tiers and small-business offerings. Jack up prices by 200%, 500%, sometimes 1,000%. Then use the cash to fund the next acquisition. ...
"For two decades, developers built an incredible ecosystem based on sharing and mutual benefit. Bitnami alone grew to over 4 billion downloads annually, according to their own statistics. But that era is ending. Not with a bang, but with a pricing page.
"In its place, we’re getting a new model: enterprise software as hostage situation. Build your infrastructure on our platform. Integrate deeply. Depend completely. Then watch as we turn the screws, knowing you have no escape."
