Yes, it's down again

My company owns their infrastructure and we don't have issues like this and our production servers are working like oiled machines and yet they want to move to 3rd party cloud services for reasons that have yet to be explained
The explanation is guys in marketing buying fancy lunches and rounds of golf for the guys in C-Suite (Source: A tired IT admin that has had to talk his management team off of this cliff due to fancy tech demo dinners from unsolicited cloud/software companies)

I haven’t played Minecraft for a while, but I was under the impression that Microsoft was progressively turning the Bedrock version into a microtransaction hellscape. If I’d have to reluctantly commend Microsoft for anything, I’d rather go for Visual Studio Code.
Bedrock indeed, but you didn't even have Bedrock edition before Microsoft, so you can't really say MS fucked it over since it was always kinda bad. Java has been pretty nice and the "big content updates" direction under Microsoft really rejuvenated the game.

Edit: seems like they fixed it, it works for me
Reliance on external services to build and test code is absolutely braindead design

My parents took good care of me, then.
Please take better care of yourself than your parents did! You deserve to feel taken care of
-
If with "good care" you mean "the core functionality is up and running most times", yes
Better than Github did pre acquisition, and we actually got new features after years of stagnation. I don’t know what they changed but at least the product moved forward in some way.

I'll get downvoted for this, but I think they take good care of github and Minecraft. As for the rest though... not so good.
Oh yeah, Minecraft fans will tell you just how much they love their handling of it...

Ironically, I find myself writing more code when CI is broken and I don't have to babysit it.

... Didn't they revoke the Minecraft licenses people purchased because they didn't manage to migrate their Mojang accounts to Microsoft accounts in a short amount of time?

Sometimes our internal CI tools break and I can't build either. I think GitHub actions syntax is actually valid in forgejo as well so I don't really think it's a problem.

You've clearly not worked at my company
Azure devops and pipelines but only that and nothing more (not allowed to deploy to azure/microsoft stuff)
ONLY deploy cf to Aws
write primarily c# for all services, even our websites (iis 7, cshtml)
only exception is a new mobile app which is written in React Native, but even that is more bloated than the windows 11 start menu. It's the only exception.
Projects are generally so poorly maintained, we're still using bootstrap 4, outdated framework versions. I know personally there's a windows server 2003 chugging along somewhere.
"we know about this (medium) bug/vuln, we can work around it. Just add this new feature to the codebase" but imagine this times 100. I quietly fix the bugs because i wouldn't be able to live with myself otherwise.
the projects are 95% boiler plate for the simplest of tasks (curl a thing and pass it to another service has about 40 different classes), no processing...
"Aws Q first" company where none of the developers actually get access to write code with. Explicitly forbidden from using copilot: "it'll use our code for their training"... right. Won't someone think of our flawless, industry standard code. Also, that's not how that works.
security none existsnt. Aws security tools used to scream at you every time you open the aws console. Solution at the company was to restrict views to those pages so (most) people don't see the security/vuln reports. To get reports, you'd have to ask cybersec.
most developers are in a constant state of burnout.
There's more but i'd violate my NDA too much at that point.
we're expected to hit 1/2 b gbp profit in couple years
i think we, the developers at our company, are the biggest clowns in the entire IT industry. And yeah, we're reponsible for your gov ids & loan applications.

On top of that, even if you did manage to migrate your account, the M$ Minecraft accounts get deleted without warning after some time (2 years?) of inactivity. Guess how I found that out.

Not going to lie, that is hilarious. And forget red flags, you have a whole squadron of semaphores right there.

Lost access to my OG account because I didn't find out about this until a month after it was too late.

I marvel at the proficiency with which Microsoft tears down every piece of software it touches nowadays.

People were given three years to migrate, I wouldn't quite call that short

Oh, yeah bedrock sucks. Java edition is still great though. And yes, VSCode is good as well.

As a Minecraft player, as long as they leave java edition alone I'm fine with it.

No, that's actually genius.
How else are you supposed to get random paid break-time, which the boss can't stop you from even if a crunch is going on?
