-
Tom Sella (@tsella) reportedmicrosoft @Azure is the worst developer experience i've ever seen. from the tenant deletion (no recourse) to expired tokens, its like they are trying to keep people away from using it.
-
Tech P (@Tech_p001) reported@Azure "The question isn't where AI should run—it’s how many billions of dollars are being wasted running models on unoptimized, chaotic data estates just to satisfy FOMO. You can't out-build bad data architecture with more compute."

RangerWi-Fi Consulting LLC (@SecuringWiFi) reportedAI experiments are one thing. Running them at scale is another. Check out how Wrtn uses @Azure OpenAI Service and the new o1 model:

Fabien Snauwaert 🇫🇷🇺🇸 🇪🇸🇭🇺🇷🇺 (@fabiensnauwaert) reportedMy experience with @Azure: - Pay USD 123.58/mo for Postgres - Server gets stuck on restart. Cannot access it. Gotta contact support. - Pay $29 to contact support. But that's business hours only, and it's 2 AM. - Pay $100/mo to reach 24/7 support. - SLA is 1h. Get a response 2h later. - Request a refund. Get ignored for 13 days. - Escalate the ticket. - Receive 5 full-page apology emails, all expecting a response. - Server still not stable. - Upgrade to USD 218.48/mo. This is the kind of nonsense @levelsio warns about. Meanwhile, Hetzner would cost ~€40/mo.

Soru Soran Adam (@SoruSoran_Adam) reportedI felt really bad when I switched from Azure DevOps to AWS. Why did AWS create such terrible interfaces for DevOps / Dev Teams ? Constantly defining permissions with JSON is so tedious. It'll take a little while to get used to it. @awscloud @Azure
-
Kodeus (@TheKodeusLabs) reported@NVIDIADC @Azure Infra is scaling fast to bring agents into production, but infrastructure alone doesn’t solve the core problem running agents is one thing, trusting their execution is another.
-
ChrisK (@cjk365) reported@guyrleech @Azure At some point someone on the Windows App team will reach the same conclusion and fix the slowness and reliability issues. And hopefully rename the App to something more useful. Copilot has problems strongly binding to such a generic name.
-
Flexsin Inc. (@Flexsin) reported@Azure Confidential Computing was built for this exact problem. Your data stays encrypted while it's being processed – locked inside hardware-level trusted environments. The cloud provider can't see it. The host OS can't see it. Nobody can. Overhead: under 8% #MicrosoftAzure
-
Neon Cosmo (@VowOfJudgment) reported@Azure The latest official Edge build can't synchronize Profiles with old MS Accounts like @live.com.ar We've had these accounts for around 20 years, and spent a lot of money on MS Store purchases. If #Microsoft does not fix this it's plain theft.
-
Electronic Intelligence Agency (@EI3065) reported@Azure @LinkedIn prevents acess for selected nationalities with programers doing imposible security checks on login; on repeat level of app becomes low of low for conflict
-
ChrisK (@cjk365) reported@BlasikRandy @Azure Codex doesn't fix the problem of a cloud-native shell that's actually in the same region as the tenant with an effective set of security controls and behaves correctly in a chromium-based browser on multiple devices.

Luca Steeb (@steebchen) reportedjust paid $100 for the @Azure support plan just to have an underpaid offshore person tell me that there is no other way of filling a manual form for EVERY goddamn model to lift limits for a new account

Mark Xiong (@beaniedude0122) reportedMicrosoft needs to replace their Azure customer support team. How tf can every legit call I receive from them sound like a scam????? @Azure

Anne Durgueil (@AnneDurgueil) reported@MSCloud assuming you guys handle Windows365 which is cloud based (and whose principles I love), you may consider using what we called a "transaction processor" although frankly it is very hard these days to find a description that fits what I knew of them when I started coding on IBM mainframes in my teens in the 70s. I'm only saying that because the executables' images these days are so huge and full of useless code you'll fast have huge memory management issues, the same we used to have on our mainframes back in time as we squeezed our code in a few kilobytes. The word transaction processor comes from the fact we mostly coded for banks and insurance companies, where one performed transactions before computing turned up, so it doesn't tell you why it's so great, nor how it works: Despite the fact we had thousands of online users for one tiny computer, there was only one executable image contiguously loaded in memory (maybe two). Each user had a session but all that was kept for each session in resident memory was only the data it used, and the adress (the position) of the next instruction to execute in the executable image for that session. And the beauty of that in a multithreading environment, is that it happens automatically without overbearing thread management. To be honest we coders never had to bother about it all, and Cobol as a programing language was well geared to such a use: working storage was defined before the executable code using those data definitions was lined up, unlike Basic for instance where you could define fields as you went, but where professionals defined them up with comments at the top of the program. (I suppose this can be reshuffled at compilation stage.. yes sorry you need to compile). I Guess object orientation that came a little bit later will fit very well in that framework. We used IMS and CICS on IBM, and ACMS on DEC VAX/VMS.

oesnada (@oesnadaki) reportedThe European Commission is moving to designate @awscloud and @Azure as gatekeepers under the Digital Markets Act, a shift that signals the end of the unregulated era for cloud infrastructure. By forcing these platforms to adopt strict interoperability and data portability standards, the EU aims to dismantle the technical and contractual lock-in that has long defined the enterprise cloud market. This regulatory expansion means $AMZN and Microsoft will likely be forced to overhaul how they bundle services and manage customer transitions to competitors. The upcoming preliminary finding marks a significant escalation in antitrust pressure on $MSFT and the broader cloud sector.

whoajack (@whoajack) reportedWho knew Azure was so expensive :P VM, cheap (like less than $20/month). Bastion host to connect to it, not cheap. LIke $150/month. Time to switch to AWS. WTF :P @Azure

dayma (@blackride) reported@Azure your support request capability in Azure is a disaster. The drop downs don't help and never actually lets me open a ticket.....
-
Veer Shrivastav (@srivastaveer) reportedThere is absolutely no way to create a ticket on Azure Support even after taking $100 support plan. It's P0 issue our systems are down and there are so many unnecessary forms. @MicrosoftIndia @Microsoft @Azure We need immediate help.
-
Conor O'Neill (@conoro) reportedThinking about it, @Azure couldn't have picked a worse time to have a wide scale multi-hour OpenAI outage. Their whole "We're Enterprise" schtick really didn't hold up to scrutiny. And now we have options in Europe with AWS.

Priyanshu (@iproductAI) reportedPlease @Azure fix it i'm seriously even human can't prove that they are human Why not just automated captcha?

Till Kahlen (@tkahlen) reportedTried to setup @Azure Foundry for @OpenAI data residency in West Germany. Recap after 1 hour: This is the WORST dev experience like ever. WTF is deployment type (I selected Germany for a reason), what is quota and why does it not exist? I added a credit card - THAT IS MY QUOTA. Oh, and not a SINGLE OpenAI model (except text-embedding-3-large) is selectable. Apparently, there is "some quota" for GPT-4-Turbo (hello 2023!!) but the model is not even in the model selector... And the best thing? How much model quota you have, the model's description, and the model's pricing are at 3 different locations. Oh, and, yes, you are able to "Request Quota" but it is just a long form where you have to enter ALL your account data again and even add a justification, and then maybe get a reply at some point? So, basically, a customer needing data residency in Germany will need to write a support ticket as their first task after account creation. Nice CX.. I am quitting the process and will try out @MistralAI for this project

Florian Bador (@florianbador) reported@Azure : Remove this insanity of #AuthenticatorApp! I created a new biz account for some emailing, put the debit card, then the login forces to setup that stupid app, but I don't own a smartphone (and won't borrow anyone's). I tried to call support but got disconnected, calling again leads nowhere. At this point I could not even cancel the membership because I cannot login... Madness! Just let the customer decides what they want as 2FA!!! They know better, you control-freaks. So what am I supposed to do at this point? Cannot login, cannot setup auth app, cannot even cancel because cannot login, cannot open a case online because cannot login, and no "Use another way" option to skip this silly Auth-App setup, and no Desktop App either since I run exclusively on Linux.... Why so complicated??? Keep It Simple Stupid. @Microsoft @Outlook
