Edit: seems like they fixed it, it works for me

I marvel at the proficiency with which Microsoft tears down every piece of software it touches nowadays.
I’ll get downvoted for this, but I think they take good care of github and Minecraft. As for the rest though… not so good.
If with “good care” you mean “the core functionality is up and running most times”, yes
I haven’t played Minecraft for a while, but I was under the impression that Microsoft was progressively turning the Bedrock version into a microtransaction hellscape. If I’d have to reluctantly commend Microsoft for anything, I’d rather go for Visual Studio Code.
Bedrock indeed, but you didn’t even have Bedrock edition before Microsoft, so you can’t really say MS fucked it over since it was always kinda bad. Java has been pretty nice and the “big content updates” direction under Microsoft really rejuvenated the game.
It’s nice that they brought Minecraft to practically every device. It sucks that they didn’t replicate redstone
Thats because Microsoft has refused to change anything meaningful, there are new mobs but they dont drop anything of value and there are new biomes but the blocks are all decorative. Microsoft knows they’ll screw it up so they only make surface level changes.
Oh, yeah bedrock sucks. Java edition is still great though. And yes, VSCode is good as well.
The bedrock version is bad, but they have recently given everyone that owned one version of the game the other version for free and now sell both versions of the game for the price of one
… Didn’t they revoke the Minecraft licenses people purchased because they didn’t manage to migrate their Mojang accounts to Microsoft accounts in a short amount of time?
On top of that, even if you did manage to migrate your account, the M$ Minecraft accounts get deleted without warning after some time (2 years?) of inactivity. Guess how I found that out.
The MS or MC account?
Because my MC account is very dead, while my MS is semi active.Edit: (Dead meaning not deactivated)
People were given three years to migrate, I wouldn’t quite call that short
People have absolutely taken a multi-year break from Minecraft before.
Really though, why is there a time limit at all? Google still allows you to convert old Youtube accounts to Google accounts, why can’t Microsoft do the same?
They deliberately removed code search for not logged in users almost immediately. Just recently they removed cloning without an account, so now updating my computer requires signing in to github.
They have been awful stewards.
Look what they just did to Notepad!!!
MONSTERS!!!
My company owns their infrastructure and we don’t have issues like this and our production servers are working like oiled machines and yet they want to move to 3rd party cloud services for reasons that have yet to be explained
a brief conversation:
Cloud good, very good for dynamic sizing up and down.
but sir we don’t need to scale up and down for our business.
but cloud good.
I’m worried that when the bean counters see the price difference between AWS and self hosted stuff they’ll find AWS more expensive and we will have to deliver a year’s work for 10 scaled agile teams again, but in our machines
I’m guess you have a fully staffed infrastructure team team, so the reason that has yet to be explained is that they want to downsize that team.
We use cloud services because we have never had a fully staffed infrastructure team.
The fewer magic blackboxes are around, the
- (happy variant) easier it is to train new people and the less mental burden there is on existing staff
- (sad variant) easer it is to fire people.
Someday soon: Claude is down
What are you planning? Downing the Dutch songfestival singer Claude? /s
This thread pivots hard from version control jokes into a somber discussion of the future of Minecraft.
I have found my people. You all are amazing.
What do they mean by “Carry On.”?
It’s already over. The guy in the left had both, the High Ground and the higher posture.
ackshually you can run most of the CI locally
Doesn’t matter if the mechanism that checks the repo and sends the trigger message to the runner is down.
how does that affect running the CI locally? I don’t mean triggering the cloud CI manually, I mean running the commands manually.

Ironically, I find myself writing more code when CI is broken and I don’t have to babysit it.
