And it only took how many years and yoga sessions in the Maldives before he came to this conclusion?

Microsoft has spent more than $76 billion acquiring game studios and publishers over the past few years in an attempt to turn Xbox into a Netflix-like subscription platform, and the result is that nobody -- possibly not even Microsoft -- can clearly articulate what Xbox actually is anymore

In somewhat related news, WTF is this Copilot thing all about?!

Ever wondered how underwater cables are laid?

Here's a super cool subsea cable article almost as old as the cable in TFA.

That's an interesting article. At first I thought you were talking about the ruination of the US Agency for Global Media, Voice of America's parent.

Backing away slowly and killing this with fire.

Your mileage may vary.

If I wanted AI to do something for me for Drupal, it would be to write me a theme.

Radix 6 FTW!

Once, I found a much better UX/UI tech-doc than this, but that doc is very close to it and gives you the gist of the technique. It took me a long time to find that tech doc while searching for what I recalled but failed to find.

You're doing it wrong. Next time include a skill.md with your prompt.

Several weeks ago I met a guy in an airport lounge bar and we compared AI notes between us. He turned me on to Microsoft Githhub Copilot Enterprise 'agentic teams' which I've been focused on since. I knew it was only going to be a short period of time before the other AI companies offered similar tech and now I see Anthropic is doing just that, (disclaimer, I only read TFA and linked-to article, and I have no experience with this new stuff yet).

Last few months I've purchased Jetbrains Junie. This month I purchased Microsoft Githhub Copilot Enterprise instead. Both provide access to different AI models like Anthropic's, ChatGPT's, Google's, etc. for their monthly prices.

To use all of the features of Github Copilot, you must have a Microsoft Githhub Copilot Enterprise account with at least one Organization, which costs $39/seat, which is the same price as a simple developer account without all the features. Thing is: from my perspective those features are critical to begin with, period. One of the great values of Microsoft Githhub Copilot Enterprise is how well it works with GIT, and if you do serious work with GIT repos and want to use the new AI stuff, you'll need a Microsoft Githhub Copilot Enterprise which cost the same as a simple dev account, and is a royal pain to setup for a sole dev.

Creating and configuring a Microsoft Github Copilot Enterprise account for the 2 days it took to get right felt like enduring a long hike through thick stinky swamp water on a cold, rainy night. It does work but I haven't used it long enough to judge quality or time savings. It's certainly comparable to JetBrains Junie ($30/monthly) which lacks agentic coding teams, unless today's announcement changes that somehow.

I do like specialized *.agent.md files and how they hand-off tasks to each other and create GIT Pull-Requests for my review.

I found these articles about Microsoft Githhub Copilot Enterprise useful:

A mission control to assign, steer, and track Copilot coding agent tasks

Planning a project with GitHub Copilot

How to orchestrate agents using mission control"

Just like Voice of America, and don't get me started on USAID.

Whatever you toggle becomes the weakest link, potentially even cumulatively. ...not that I disagree with you.
