In a year-end writeup on the state of AI, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella made it clear he'd really like us to stop saying "slop."

    so, what’s the general feeling? is Nadella a worse CEO than Ballmer?

    Ballmer resulted in some good memes

      Copy/pasting a comment I wrote the other day on a post about OneDrive stealing and deleting your files:

      I knew back when Windows 10 came out and the lead of their cloud division replaced Ballmer that Windows was gonna turn into a shit show, but in my wildest nightmares I wouldn’t have predicted what they’re doing now.

      I’d say overall Ballmer was still a worse technologist and business man.

      Ballmer was an idiot capitalist who only made exclusive deals to push windows rather than software advancement people actually wanted.

      Nadella is doing the same thing but with AI and end user subscriptions.
