The reality just hit me - tonight I'll jump on a train to attend Meltlake onboarding & DevDay tomorrow! And why did it hit me? I got 2 packages delivered to my place - one was SWEET, and the other one I gave to my kids. Take a guess which one was which 😉

OneDrive: *Creates a link to Personal Vault in Finnish (even though my machine is in English)* Also @OneDrive, literally 1 minute later: "WHAT IS THAT, DELETE IT NOW, DELETE IT NOWWWW!" Peak #OneDrive experience right there. 😅 Also, somehow only happened on #Windows. Mac user not affected...

I think I know the answer to the first suggestion, #Google. The suggestions have of course been generated by an algorithm for ages, but I feel like they're just getting worse... #EntraID #Enshittification

Taking the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful Finnish Summer weather while heading out to #HELishSummit, and the traditional #ValoCatchUp just before 🙌😁

The most relatable #GitHubCopilot interaction of the day. Yes, my English can be tired after a long day, too. 😅

All things considered, this is fine. 🔥🐶🔥 #github

Happy to report that some things do not change even after you jump ship from #Windows to #macos... 🥲 And it's not the sorting I'm talking about 😅

The vacation is over and I'm back at work. My first task was to open my work laptop - and that turned out to be more of a riveting experience that I'd normally like! With that exciting cliffhanger, check out the article here: www.koskila.net/windows-retu... #windows #backtowork

#GitHubCopilot may have the attention span of a ferret on crack and it pays about as much attention to its instructions, too, but at least it CAN self-reflect and admit fault if you push it. 😅 It'll cost you, though - and the self-reflection never leads to any learning, so it's 100% useless 🥲

Every day is a good day to support Ukraine (and maybe send some post cards to Russian embassies around the world).

Are these tools working great for literally everyone else? All I see is hype and good vibes (well, except for energy and water consumption, that is). 😅 For me, the LLMs still constantly mess up the initial answers and ignore instructions. Tokens burned: 150k Value gained: 0. #FFS #Copilot

I just had a micro-panic when I couldn't find a #Copilot "bubble", ribbon menu or even a sidebar in #PowerPoint. 🤔 But then, it got worse: suddenly, I had two! 😱 Neither one of which works. 🥶 I guess this is my "Houston, I've got two Outlooks, neither of which are working"-moment. 😁

My face when #Claude 🤖 hallucinates numbers, secretly makes them a priority memory, adds them to all of the #powerpoint files I work on and finally refuses to change or remove the memory. ⛔️ Well.. I guess we can just nuke the project? To #hallucinate new documents takes only seconds anyway! 😆

Microsoft - if you can't keep #Microsoft365 up and running for more than a few minutes at a time, maybe rent some extra cloud from Elon? I hear he has zero use for it. 🧐

I guess it's safe to assume that all of the AI tools just work fantastically for everyone else, all the time. Just another case of me holding the tools wrong (like my years-long struggle with #Windows). But still - #CopilotCowork gaslighting me about storing a memory feels just cheap #Copilot

Antti K. Koskela @koskila.net · 16/06/2026
Maybe Microsoft should rent some of the unused #grok capacity just like Anthropic and Google do. My #Cowork keeps taking imprompt breaks. Wish I could just turn it off and on again. 🥲 Windows might be broken in many ways, but a reboot always made it better (IF it did actually start, that is 😅)

Antti K. Koskela @koskila.net · 15/06/2026
I guess my #Copilot agent is taking a union-mandated break? 🤔 Oh well, can't ask the agents to work TOO hard. I mean, I am hardly working either. 🤷‍♂️

It's soon been 7 years since my family moved back from abroad. We still have some of the cheapest Canadian brand of wax paper in our kitchen. 🇨🇦 This is either some high-yield product... Or we just don't use wax paper much. 😅

Last week I barely missed the Pope in #Madrid by a day - but #Finnair caused my luggage to miss the ride home by 3 days... 😅 The perils of traveling, I guess. This week, I'll actually meet some of my team face-to-face in Stockholm for the first time ever! And this time, I'm taking the ferry. 🚢

Hockey lovers unite! Thanks #SRF for the live feed - in Finland, the #IIHF world mastership games are shown on norwegian-owned #MTV3, which only shows them for paid subscribers online 😵

Working with agents is (still) often like working with an idiot savant... #GitHubCopilot is most of the time a much better programmer than yours truly. But that doesn't change the fact it's still an idiot, too 🧐

Love it when the "Explain with Copilot" prompt from #Azure Portal is so offensive it causes #Copilot's harmful content policy to fire up, and stop the investigation in its tracks. 😅 I guess whoever wrote the prompt that gets sent to #OpenAI felt the same way about quotas than I do.

Ha - #GitHubCopilot didn't like me addressing it without capital first letter. And this fix cost me one premium request, too... 😅 #GitHub

Oh, the day finally came! I was reaching for the - you guessed it - COPILOT KEY on my laptop, with the intention of actually opening the #Copilot chat! But - nothing happened. Why? Because I'm a mac user, and I don't have the key 😶 Damnit, #Microsoft. Even when you succeed, you make me fail. 🥲

New Outlook (NEW) is great. It truly combines the power of native development paired with the speed of web development. And suddenly it's 4 years later, and (on the mac version) you still can't subscribe to an online calendar. www.koskila.net/outlook-new-...

Oh, the irony! It's super refreshing to jump back to #Windows every now and then, even if only to relish the memories and confirm that yes, all of the problems are still there 😅🙈

Credit where it's due: #M365Copilot actually just took leaps in productivity and usability. I'd like to think me complaining about it in length last week lead to Microsoft laser-focusing on it. But I'm not THAT delusional 😅 Now, the experience with #PowerPoint, though... 🥲

Yesterday, Microsoft changed the AI game the way the always do: by introducing new licensing bundles! 🥳 The long-awaited M365 E7 bundle is finally here - and at $100 USD, it's sure to provide tremendous value to customers and shareholders alike! www.koskila.net/microsoft-ai...

Got to love how the #NewOutlook has decided that my theme color now is "poison green". Another move that kind of underlines the fact that the P in "PC" does NOT stand for "Personal"... 🤔

In the past 12 months, it's been fun to discover the similarities and differences between #Windows and #macos. One thing that's very similar is #OneDrive being a massive power hog! But at least it's much more stable on a #mac 😅

Antti K. Koskela @koskila.net · 14/01/2026
I wish we all had the endless confidence of #GitHubCopilot. Would make public speaking, performance reviews or any other stressful situation much easier. Here it proudly fixes the issues with timezones it found in documentation.. By inserting exactly the same values. 🤷‍♂️ Well done, #agent.

Antti K. Koskela @koskila.net · 30/12/2025
Spending some time away from #Windows11 has made me question some of the fairly random stuff just happening on the machine.. Like this dialog. What is "Setup"? Why is it running now? And why was it already running? As a #Windows user, I guess one just needs to accept that "stuff happens"? 🤔

Is it too late to wish for a #Macbook this Christmas? 😇 My #Dell Always Maxi Ultra Plus has spiraled into yet another infinite boot loop, keeping up with its biannual crash routine since 2023! It's impressive, given I only use it 3-4 times monthly.. Going to finish my blog on mobile. #TechWoes

Ever wondered if shelling out for a top-tier #Windows laptop really delivers the bang for your buck in development speed, or if you could do with a much cheaper pc - like a #macmini? Stop wondering, and start reading, because I've got the answers for you! www.koskila.net/windows-jugg... #dell
