@Azure @Azure @nmoneypenny tweet says “is available” blog post says “generally available soon”. I realize I’m impatient, but this is bad comms for our customers. Pls fix.

@curious_queue @Azure @OpenAIDevs azure is also probably the worst software on planet earth and this i say from personal trauma over a long period of time!
Robert McLaws (@robertmclaws) reported 13 minutes ago
@Azure @shanselman This sounds cool and I’m interested in seeing it. Having said that… AI should never have direct access to the database. There must be at least one intermediate layer that enforces business-level data security through standard APIs + OAuth. Otherwise you are exposing your data to AI vulnerabilities, exploits, and hallucinations.

worklog: 1. Fixed the ai slop colleague pushed while migrating blob storage from @azure to @cloudflare r2. 2. Configured the ports on vm to restore the broken dev envs. 3. sat on call with a colleague to help correct the cloudflare dns settings and setup proper database conns.

@Azure Microslop, so slop. Windows Slop, Azure Slop. Maybe is not slop, just bad.

So.... I want to give @Azure my money... Can you all please resolve this issue? My account is apparently disabled and the only option presented is a link to a docs page which has no information on how to actually contact support and get my account restored.

@Microsoft @Azure I have been trying to get a 365 business license for 6 weeks now and none of your “partners” care to help a small business. I have called no less than 10 times now. I don’t understand why we have to beg TO PAY YOU. Please help! We need it to connect our Azure/BI

Damian Figiel (@DamianCTO) reported 27 minutes ago
@Azure just lost its most valuable competitive edge. @OpenAI officially ended its cloud exclusivity with Microsoft. Their models can now be deployed on any cloud provider, and AWS CEO @ajassy already confirmed GPT models are coming to Bedrock "in the coming weeks." This was always going to happen. You can't build a $150B AI company and let one vendor own your distribution channel forever. The 2019 Azure exclusivity deal made sense when OpenAI needed survival compute. In 2026, it was just dead weight. The real lesson is that single-cloud dependencies in AI were always a bad bet. Model access, GPU availability, data sovereignty, you want optionality in all three. Anyone who locked their AI stack to Azure assuming exclusivity would last is doing some uncomfortable math right now. Is your AI stack still locked to one cloud or are you already spreading the risk?
Proompt Engineer (@laktozmentes5) reported 27 minutes ago
Ok, I finally got approved for better rate limits on @Azure which surprised me cos I’ve been waiting for months… It seems they fixed a few issues and the models feel somewhat reliable now? Also got access to both Claude and GPT models now. Yay. Good job Microsoft.

Our subscription has been deactivated for 16+ hours since 7:55 AM IST, March 2nd. We received communication from the Azure Safeguards Team stating that our subscription activity would be reviewed and the subscription reactivated, however, we have received no further update since. Support Request: #2603020040001026001 Could you please provide an update on the review status and expected reactivation timeline? 4.5M users and enterprise clients in India & Canada are completely offline. @AzureSupport @Azure @MicrosoftIndia

@Azure "This specific error actually isn't an Azure Batch configuration problem or a permissions issue—it is a hardware architecture mismatch." (oops this was my fault for building a docker image on Mac m4 and targeting x86)

Azure and quota limits. Request quota increase. Request fails. System says: contact support. You contact support. You submit every required detail. Two minutes later: ticket closed. Result: zero resolution. Congratulations, @Azure Problem untouched. Morning ruined.

When you have an issue with your @Azure subscription and want to get help by creating a ticket, they with guide you with @Copilot . After you decribe the problem, @Copilot will guide you to submit a ticket. Endless looping.

i’ve recently went down a rabbit hole to learn how hyperscalers / cloud providers like @awscloud, @Azure (or at least in theory) work a huge respect to all the engineers that built the abstraction behind the resource provisioning. i am still trying to wrap my head around it
