"What came through was the voice of people who care deeply about Windows and want it to be better."

I gave up a long time ago hoping Windows would get better. At this point, I just hope it does not get worse.

If you haven’t watched it, please watch Rick and Morty S1E2. Your dog’s name is Snuffles, and he is teaching you how to teach vibe coding to dogs, to educate you.

These JSON files are actually readable, congrats. I’m wondering whether this could be handled via an additional attached file instead. For example, I could have mycomplexdata.json and an accompanying mycomplexdata.jsonfranc. When the file is opened in the IDE, the IDE would merge the two automatically.

That way, the original JSON file stays clean and isn’t polluted with extra data.

As a .NET developer who actually likes some Microsoft products, I can say this: the Copilot series is the worst thing they've shipped since Internet Explorer—and honestly, it might overtake it. The sad part is they had a huge head start before competitors gained access to powerful models, yet this is what we got.

If you haven’t seen how bad it is, here’s one example: Copilot Terminal. In theory, it should help you with terminal commands. Sounds great. In practice, it installs a chat panel on the right side of your terminal that has zero integration with the terminal itself. It can’t read what’s written, it can’t send commands, it has no context, and the model response time is awful. What’s the point of a “terminal assistant” that can’t actually assist the terminal?

This lack of real integration is basically the core design of most Copilot products. If you’ve been lucky enough to avoid them, good for you. If your company forces you to use them because they’re bundled with a Microsoft license, I genuinely feel your pain.

I think there’s a small detail missing. Most browsers also track user behavior and use your data. I can’t imagine big tech companies fighting each other in court just to give you the best internet experience. The idea sounds good in theory, but in practice, I don’t think it would change much. What we really need are regulations that truly understand business models and target and punish those that abuse them.

For example, right now any company can ask for your consent ten times a day until you give up, and once you click “yes” even once, your data begins an eternal journey.

A few months ago, my Samsung TV (which I bought four years ago) suddenly blocked everything and displayed a new agreement on the screen with only two options: Read and Agree. There was no way to use the TV without accepting the agreement.
