  Still think it's an incredible business model when @Azure keeps giving me a 8vCPU CPU even when I select (and pay for) one with 32 or 48, but to get any support on this bug I need to pay THEM?

  Just the threat should cause @Cloudflare @Google @Azure to start reserving capacity, re-routing traffic and having resources in place. It would be prohibitively disruptive to the industry and AI would negatively impacted by reduced service and increased costs to customers

  Had to contact support to transfer my @Azure grant. Support was super responsive! But now it won't let me apply the sponsor credits to my billing profile. Lol I'm trying to build @Copilot support agents for staff at the homeless shelter I work at. Pls fix.

  @Azure what an awful product for anyone with less than a doctorate to try to use. Days wasted, even with Claude's help. Endless circles of conflicting errors and rabbit holes. Support dead ends. Insanely frustrating. Claude's suggestion...give up, cut your losses, move on.

  @Azure just lost its most valuable competitive edge. @OpenAI officially ended its cloud exclusivity with Microsoft. Their models can now be deployed on any cloud provider, and AWS CEO @ajassy already confirmed GPT models are coming to Bedrock "in the coming weeks." This was always going to happen. You can't build a $150B AI company and let one vendor own your distribution channel forever. The 2019 Azure exclusivity deal made sense when OpenAI needed survival compute. In 2026, it was just dead weight. The real lesson is that single-cloud dependencies in AI were always a bad bet. Model access, GPU availability, data sovereignty, you want optionality in all three. Anyone who locked their AI stack to Azure assuming exclusivity would last is doing some uncomfortable math right now. Is your AI stack still locked to one cloud or are you already spreading the risk?

  Microsoft needs to replace their Azure customer support team. How tf can every legit call I receive from them sound like a scam????? @Azure

  Thinking about it, @Azure couldn't have picked a worse time to have a wide scale multi-hour OpenAI outage. Their whole "We're Enterprise" schtick really didn't hold up to scrutiny. And now we have options in Europe with AWS.

  @Azure @Microsoft it must be a joke to pay $100 for support then still having to fill out this ****** form for EVERY SINGLE MODEL with 20 fields of the same IDs, names, data, email, etc and different ratios for TPM depending on the model. it can't be real? how does this pass product? is this a joke?

  @Azure Confidential Computing was built for this exact problem. Your data stays encrypted while it's being processed – locked inside hardware-level trusted environments. The cloud provider can't see it. The host OS can't see it. Nobody can. Overhead: under 8% #MicrosoftAzure

  @MSCloud assuming you guys handle Windows365 which is cloud based (and whose principles I love), you may consider using what we called a "transaction processor" although frankly it is very hard these days to find a description that fits what I knew of them when I started coding on IBM mainframes in my teens in the 70s. I'm only saying that because the executables' images these days are so huge and full of useless code you'll fast have huge memory management issues, the same we used to have on our mainframes back in time as we squeezed our code in a few kilobytes. The word transaction processor comes from the fact we mostly coded for banks and insurance companies, where one performed transactions before computing turned up, so it doesn't tell you why it's so great, nor how it works: Despite the fact we had thousands of online users for one tiny computer, there was only one executable image contiguously loaded in memory (maybe two). Each user had a session but all that was kept for each session in resident memory was only the data it used, and the adress (the position) of the next instruction to execute in the executable image for that session. And the beauty of that in a multithreading environment, is that it happens automatically without overbearing thread management. To be honest we coders never had to bother about it all, and Cobol as a programing language was well geared to such a use: working storage was defined before the executable code using those data definitions was lined up, unlike Basic for instance where you could define fields as you went, but where professionals defined them up with comments at the top of the program. (I suppose this can be reshuffled at compilation stage.. yes sorry you need to compile). I Guess object orientation that came a little bit later will fit very well in that framework. We used IMS and CICS on IBM, and ACMS on DEC VAX/VMS.

  @Azure @ghbdigital @AzureSupport Official account: redirect to support. Support: open a ticket. Problem: still yours.
