This is my experience with all Microsoft software. The worst thought out, buggy, untested pile of crap.

When you try to save a short-term buck by offshoring your workforce, you end up with long-term problems and brand damage.

And now vibe coding is the new offshoring, so we can make things worse at scale!

When did the offshoring happen, because Microsoft has been bad for a long time. Even in the 90s there were so many BSODs.

Well, the classic BSODs were not all Microsoft's fault, many of them were on 3rd party driver developers.

I think the worse thing here is all the subtle breakages and inconsistencies in Windows, as well as in the MS Office suite of products, constant redesigns of things that worked, adding layers upon layers of "make-up" on top that obscures functionality, etc etc.

		I think “The Operating System is fundamentally Unstable” is a much bigger problem than “First party applications are redesigned too frequently.”
