Strangely, Teams chat is working fine here. Anything in Teams that is tied to other parts of O365, including the calendar, is dead. I'm currently watching a training video on sharepoint.com, so that's fine too, for now.

While I don't expect this to be the case, I'm emotionally prepared for this to be some sort of "dicks out for Harambe"-style action protesting JH's departure from Nvidia, on a larger and more technical scale.

Edit: Typo.

Remember, my guys : “Microsoft Works” is an oxymoron.

My company is being pressured very aggressively by Microsoft to migrate all our users from us-managed Exchange to Microsoft-managed Exchange Online. Guess which users still have email today and which do not…

Neither email nor Teams is working at my non-tech megacorp employer. I wonder how much of the economy this is impacting.

My employer is very very close to MSFT. Both my employer and MSFT have been aggressively moving jobs to India, and firing people in the US. It's hard not to feel some schadenfreude.

When I worked at a company that relied on this, I called it "Microsoft 361" because it went down about 4 days a year

On the bright side, so much work got done today.

Also, their status page is a joke.. one entry, no timeline, is there another official one that has more detail?

Did Anthropic's new release this week include an AI rollout plan (i.e. not approved by humans) to take down Office and Outlook for a lot of enterprises? I half-snarkily ask since we have seen "rogue AI" headlines before.

A fictional story about AI could be that it rolled out its new document, spreadsheet, slides, etc. apps, knows the IPO is coming up and decided to make a lot of opportunities for people to sign up for their new release by DDosing their competitor.

who puts their status page on servers the status is supposed to be for?

Maybe due to everyone pre-downloading GTA VI today ;-)
