| IBM hasn't made a product that works since Db2 so I am fairly confident this is a flaming pile of garbage. |

| No, you are wrong. IBMer here. I was at first agains it, my background is for 2 decades startup(s) before I joined IBM, and I started slowly using IBM Bob and I must say it is really good and helping. With many integrations that works :) |

| ▲ | quietsegfault an hour ago | parent [-] | | You get more bobcoins by using your old allowance and running out, then submitting GitHub issues that get ignored. |

| ▲ | quietsegfault an hour ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Are you allowed to use Cursor, Codex, Claude, or OpenCode or is Bob all they allow? | | | |

| ▲ | Saline9515 4 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | What is good about it then? What model do you use? Which integration are we talking about? Is it open source? How much the "transparent pricing" "bobcoin" is worth? | |

| Not an IBMer, but IBM MQ and Sterling Connect:Direct are both solid, I use them daily and they work wonderfully, although they can be a real bitch to set up and use in certain scenarios. |

| ▲ | getatme32 14 minutes ago | parent [-] | | A bit of hyperbole by me since db2 was made in 1983. But MQ was created in 1993. Sterling was an acquisition. The majority of products that actually work were acquired. Very little if anything of value since 2005+ that was actually IBM created. (Bob appears fully IBM created) |

| I wish you study the Wikipedia page, please. it's a very old company and we have invented really cool stuff. signed: a proud IBMer |
| |
| ▲ | quietsegfault an hour ago | parent [-] | | What makes you proud about IBM currently? IBM’s “RA” culture fostering Machiavellian politics, singleminded view of next quarter’s success, and asinine yet draconian bureaucracy are three out of MANY reasons why I’m embarrassed to have had IBM forced into my career and got the hell out as fast as possible each time. | | |
| ▲ | Stevvo an hour ago | parent [-] | | I don't work at IBM but there are many things to admire. e.g. You can take software written 40 years and run on a new IBM system today without even recompiling it thanks to the Machine Interface.
Have fun trying to run a 40 year old C++ program. |
