          I have so many question right now.

          Did... anyone at Microsoft approve this chart? How come they didn't notice so many glaring errors that produced by AI?

                @thomasfuchs so much of this "article" is factually incorrect. Literally bottom of the barrel slop.

                    @thomasfuchs the longer I look the worse it gets. “Tim” had me laughing but then I looked at where they put release branches and how they ordered the tags… I am so confused.

                            Tim seems to be going backwards. I'm going to call Tim a Reverse Engineer

                                  @thomasfuchs @NovemDecimal They only look at the page count. I've put recipes for making a chocolate cake in the middle of a large, dumb, mandated document and nobody ever noticed.
