They have a monopoly. The quality of their products has become irrelevant to the short-term well-being of their stock, which is all that matters in our hyper-financialized economy.

People who only learn leetcode are designing everything, it seems

I feel like this is the one type of thing grinding leetcode would prevent.

Pretty sure I've seen this on HN at least once before.

The article doesn't mention it, and a comment poses the same question, but does this still happen if you have "Auto arrange icons" and "Align icons to grid" disabled?

A few days ago Teams got insanely slow when I was writing a comment on a Planner task. I ran a profiler and it seems like it was running some kind of sanitizer for every key press and that each call took over a second. They also seemed to get slower the more of them were queued up. Typing a sentence (blindly) would freeze the whole app for about five minutes before doing the first draw.
What's up with Microsoft these days?
