@dazfuller@mstdn.social WHAT IS THAT VERTICAL ARROW? WHO IS TINM? NM ISN'T EVEN A DEFINED LIGATURE (as far as I can tell) (but it does exist maybe? maybe as a phonetic marker: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nm_ligature.svg ) I am so confused

Maybe it's a git mortgage, like the one you take for all this infrastructure and GPUs..?

@dazfuller@mstdn.social That's Tim travelling back in time to fix his morge strategy.

@dazfuller@mstdn.social This is just GitFlow reinterpreted by AI and it's honestly pretty much why developers sometimes hate git :-) Move to Trunk Based Development (with a coach if you need it) and look back on this model and laugh like a maniac.

@dazfuller@mstdn.social Now WTF seriously? I had to literally spell the domain out loud. Yes, it really is microsoft.com and not some parody site. It's not like I ever held Microsoft in high regard but this is beyond all comprehension. Is there really no one doing any proofreading anymore? I mean, yeah they're in AI business and they use it themselves, but I wasn't aware they've literally taken hands off the wheel entirely.

@dazfuller@mstdn.social This, to me, is a perfect encapsulation of the value proposition of chatbots: do what you can already do, but worse. The original image is available on the author's blog as a high-resolution PDF, explicitly licensed as Creative Commons BY-SA. It is *trivial* to find the article and get the canonical image. Instead, somebody asked copilot to regurgitate one, or possibly asked it to "upscale" a low-res copy of it. Doing the work well would have been faster and easier, but the vibe must flow.

@dazfuller@mstdn.social > don't know why Tim is working in the opposite direction It's not "Tim", it's "Timn" or "Tinm". No wonder everyone is confused. "Timn" is the one who's working backwards. The *real* Tim, who is working forwards and understands the details of `git morge --continvoucly`, already left for the day. The team will have to settle for a regular old non-continvoucal morge until Tim comes back and they can ask him for help.

@dazfuller@mstdn.social Honestly, I think Tinn took one look at this and is headed out the door.

@dazfuller@mstdn.social My favorite part is when Tim said it's morgin time and morged all over everyone

@dazfuller@mstdn.social this can all be fixed by cherry pitting morges and squash morging, or if you don't like squash, pumpkin morgues.

@dazfuller@mstdn.social this... this... this is a pastiche of a beautiful diagram of a Git branching model published in the late 2000s and later disowned by its authors as obsolete in an era of continuous delivery
