Execs: “We don’t have time for stupid things like ‘ready’! We want MONEY! Push early! Push often! It’ll maybe someday work, in the meantime… MONEY!”

Typical M$. Pushing half-baked and bugged products just to take a market share.

Standard business practice.

  • Get it out there, tout it as the new biggest thing. Most people won’t know it’s not busted.
  • Improve said item once the company behind it actually figures out what they’re doing.
  • Say it’s better, when it’s basically the original thing you promised.
  • ???
  • Profit.

It’s called prototyping do you even design think?

Only half joking as this is the actual strategy.

Whoa there slow down there maestro. New and Improved‽ By golly this thingy gets better and better-er, to which corporate department do I need to make this comically sized check out to?

I can’t wait to see AI form a labor union one day

Gotta make some profits!

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
