the great mystery with lync is how they managed to get online meetings mostly right and then fail so completely at all the trivial stuff (text chat etc.) that the overall impression remains one inducing anger and existential dread

Shaggar posted:threaded chat is retarded and its gonna take a while for them to pull it out. it is a bad enough idea that i would be unsurprised if they make it optional within a quarter or so. unless of course they have managed to entangle the threading with a bunch of other things vastly improving your product by removing a feature is a rare pleasure though

slack is such a 2016 it bubble company though that i can't really stand them being successful, despite it being fantastic when we got the license and a billion stupid bots flourished

in my last job it was felt expensive to have actual speakerphones in the meeting rooms, there were sfb setups, but if you needed an actual phone the official line was that you'd pair your cell with a bluetooth thing. bluetooth as usual was horrible to deal with. end result: when actual customers with actual teleconferencing setups wanted to meet the head office called in first, and we called head office on sfb and lived with a speaker-microphone air gap across the country before it got to the client wherever

i kept a stock portfolio analysis platform alive on a bad release version of the code for a few weeks by coming in every morning before the markets opened and clicking on a bookmark i had created which injected a piece of code which unfucked some of the data it relied on good times
