Big Tech joins the race to build the world’s heaviest airplane

I'm at the end of my tour for my new book, the international bestseller Enshittification. My last two stops are CCC in Hamburg, Dec 27-30 and the Tattered Cover in Denver (Jan 22). Hope to see you!

I have a weird fascination with early-stage Bill Gates, after his mother convinced a pal of hers – chairman of IBM's board of directors – to give her son the contract to provide the operating system for the new IBM PC. Gates and his pal Paul Allen tricked another programmer into selling them the rights to DOS, which they sold to IBM, setting Microsoft on the path to be one of the most profitable businesses in human history.

IBM could have made its own OS, of course. They were just afraid to, because they'd just narrowly squeaked out of a 12-year antitrust war with the Department of Justice (evocatively memorialized as "Antitrust's Vietnam"):

https://pluralistic.net/2022/10/02/the-true-genius-of-tech-leaders/

The US government traumatized IBM so badly that they turned over their crown jewels to these two prep-school kids, who scammed a pal out of his operating system for $50k and made billions from it. Despite owing his business to IBM (or perhaps because of this fact), Gates routinely mocked IBM as a lumbering dinosaur that was headed for history's scrapheap. He was particularly scornful of IBM's software development methodology, which, to be fair, was pretty terrible: IBM paid programmers by the line of code. Gates called this "the race to build the world's heaviest airplane."

After all, judging software by lines of code is a terrible idea. To the extent that "number of lines of code" has any correlation with software quality, reliability or performance, it has a negative correlation. While it's certainly possible to write software with too few lines of code (e.g. when instructions are stacked on a single line, obfuscating its functionality and making it hard to maintain), it's far more common for programmers to use too many steps to solve a problem. The ideal software is just right: verbose enough to be legible to future maintainers, streamlined enough to omit redundancies.

This is broadly true of many products, and not just airplanes. Office memos should be long enough to be clear, but no longer. Home insulation should be sufficient to maintain the internal temperature, but no more.

Ironically, enterprise tech companies' bread and butter is selling exactly this kind of qualitative measurements for bosses who want an easy, numeric way to decide which of their workers to fire, and leading the pack is Microsoft, whose flagship Office365 lets bosses assess their workers' performance on meaningless metrics like how many words they type, ranking each worker against other workers within the division, with rival divisions and within rival firms. Yes, Microsoft actually boasts to companies about the fact that if you use their products, they will gather sensitive data about how your workers perform individually and as a team, and share than information with your competitors!

https://pluralistic.net/2020/11/25/the-peoples-amazon/#clippys-revenge

But while tech companies employed programmers to develop this kind of bossware to be used on other companies' employees, they were loathe to apply them to their own workers. For one thing, it's just a very stupid way to manage a workforce, as Bill Gates himself would be the first to tell you (candidly, provided he wasn't trying to sell you an enterprise Office 365 license). For another, tech workers wouldn't stand for it. After all, these were the "princes of labor," each adding a million dollars or more to their boss's bottom line, and in such scarce supply that a coder could quit a job after the morning scrum and have a new one by the pre-dinner pickleball break:

https://pluralistic.net/2025/04/27/some-animals/#are-more-equal-than-others

Tech workers mistook the fear this dynamic instilled in their bosses for respect. They thought the reason their bosses gave them free massage therapists and kombucha on tap and a gourmet cafeteria was that their bosses liked them. After all, these bosses were all techies. A coder wasn't a worker, they were a temporarily embarrassed founder. That's why Zuck and Sergey tuned into those engineering town hall meetings and tolerated being pelted with impertinent questions about the company's technology and business strategy.

Actually, tech bosses didn't like tech workers. They didn't see them as peers. They saw them workers. Problem workers, at that. Problems to be solved.

And wouldn't you know it, supply caught up with demand and tech companies instituted a program of mass layoffs. When Google laid off 12,000 workers (just before a $80b stock buyback that would have paid their wages for 27 years), they calmed investors by claiming that they weren't doing this because business was bad – they were just correcting some pandemic-era overhiring. But Google didn't just fire junior programmers – they targeted some of their most senior (and thus mouthiest and highest-paid) techies for the chop.

Today, Sergey and Zuck no longer attend engineering meetings ("Not a good use of my time" -M. Zuckerberg). Tech workers are getting laid off at the rate of naughts. And none of these bastards can shut up about how many programmers they plan on replacing with AI:

https://pluralistic.net/2025/08/05/ex-princes-of-labor/#hyper-criti-hype

And wouldn't you know it, the shitty monitoring and ranking technology that programmers made to be used on other workers is finally being used on them:

https://jonready.com/blog/posts/everyone-in-seattle-hates-ai.html

Naturally, the excuse is monitoring AI usage. Microsoft – along with all the other AI-peddling tech companies – keep claiming that their workers adore using AI to write software, but somehow, also have to monitor workers so they can figure out which ones to fire because they're not using AI enough:

https://www.itpro.com/software/development/microsoft-claims-ai-is-augmenting-developers-rather-than-replacing-them

This is the "shitty technology adoption curve" in action. When you have a terrible, destructive technology, you can't just deploy it on privileged people who get taken seriously in policy circles. You start with people at the bottom of the privilege gradient: prisoners, mental patients, asylum-seekers. Then, you work your way up the curve – kids, gig workers, blue collar workers, pink collar workers. Eventually, it comes for all of us:

https://pluralistic.net/2021/02/24/gwb-rumsfeld-monsters/#bossware

As Ed Zitron writes, tech hasn't had a big, successful product (on the scale of, say, the browser or the smartphone) in more than a decade. Tech companies have seemingly run out of new trillion-dollar industries to spawn. Tech bosses are pulling out all the stops to make their companies seem as dynamic and profitable as they were in tech's heyday.

Firing workers and blaming it on AI lets tech bosses transform a story that would freak out investors ("Our business is flagging and we had to fire a bunch of valuable techies") into one that will shake loose fresh billions in capital ("Our AI product is so powerful it let us fire a zillion workers!").

And for tech bosses, mass layoffs offer another, critical advantage: pauperizing those princes of labor, so that they can shed their company gyms and luxury commuter busses, cut wages and benefits, and generally reset the working expectations of the tech workers who sit behind a keyboard to match the expectations of tech workers who assemble iPhones, drive delivery vans, and pack boxes in warehouses.

For tech workers who currently don't have a pee bottle or a suicide net at their job-site, it's long past time to get over this founder-in-waiting bullshit and get organized. Recognize that you're a worker, and that workers' only real source of power isn't ephemeral scarcity, it's durable solidarity:

☁︎｡⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆ how to resume ⋆｡ﾟ☾｡⋆｡ ﾟ☁︎ ﾟ

after 10 years & 6 jobs in corporate america, i would like to share how to game the system. we all want the biggest payoff for the least amount of work, right?

know thine enemy: beating the robots

i see a lot of misinformation about how AI is used to scrape resumes. i can't speak for every company but most corporations use what is called applicant tracking software (ATS).

no respectable company is using chatgpt to sort applications. i don't know how you'd even write the prompt to get a consumer-facing product to do this. i guarantee that target, walmart, bank of america, whatever, they are all using B2B SaaS enterprise solutions. there is not one hiring manager plinking away at at a large language model.

ATS scans your resume in comparison to the job posting, parses which resumes contain key words, and presents the recruiter and/or hiring manager with resumes with a high "score." the goal of writing your resume is to get your "score" as high as possible.

but tumblr user lightyaoigami, how do i beat the robots?

great question, y/n. you will want to seek out an ATS resume checker. i have personally found success with jobscan, which is not free, but works extremely well. there is a free trial period, and other ATS scanners are in fact free. some of these tools are so sophisticated that they can actually help build your resume from scratch with your input. i wrote my own resume and used jobscan to compare it to the applications i was finishing.

do not use chatgpt to write your resume or cover letter. it is painfully obvious. here is a tutorial on how to use jobscan. for the zillionth time i do not work for jobscan nor am i a #jobscanpartner i am just a person who used this tool to land a job at a challenging time.

the resume checkers will tell you what words and/or phrases you need to shoehorn into your bullet points - i.e., if you are applying for a job that requires you to be a strong collaborator, the resume checker might suggest you include the phrase "cross-functional teams." you can easily re-word your bullets to include this with a little noodling.

don't i need a cover letter?

it depends on the job. after you have about 5 years of experience, i would say that they are largely unnecessary. while i was laid off, i applied to about 100 jobs in a three-month period (#blessed to have been hired quickly). i did not submit a cover letter for any of them, and i had a solid rate of phone screens/interviews after submission despite not having a cover letter. if you are absolutely required to write one, do not have chatgpt do it for you. use a guide from a human being who knows what they are talking about, like ask a manager or betterup.

but i don't even know where to start!

i know it's hard, but you have to have a bit of entrepreneurial spirit here. google duckduckgo is your friend. don't pull any bean soup what-about-me-isms. if you truly don't know where to start, look for an ATS-optimized resume template.

a word about neurodivergence and job applications

i, like many of you, am autistic. i am intimately familiar with how painful it is to expend limited energy on this demoralizing task only to have your "reward" be an equally, if not more so, demoralizing work experience. i don't have a lot of advice for this beyond craft your worksona like you're making a d&d character (or a fursona or a sim or an OC or whatever made up blorbo generator you personally enjoy).

and, remember, while a lot of office work is really uncomfortable and involves stuff like "talking in meetings" and "answering the phone," these things are not an inherent risk. discomfort is not tantamount to danger, and we all have to do uncomfortable things in order to thrive. there are a lot of ways to do this and there is no one-size-fits-all answer. not everyone can mask for extended periods, so be your own judge of what you can or can't do.

i like to think of work as a drag show where i perform this other personality in exchange for money. it is much easier to do this than to fight tooth and nail to be unmasked at work, which can be a risk to your livelihood and peace of mind. i don't think it's a good thing that we have to mask at work, but it's an important survival skill.

How ERP Solutions Help Engineering Companies Manage Production and Inventory Better

In today's highly competitive manufacturing landscape, engineering companies face constant pressure to improve productivity, reduce operational costs, and deliver projects on time. Managing production schedules, raw material inventory, procurement, quality control, and workforce coordination through disconnected systems often leads to inefficiencies, delays, and increased expenses.

This is where Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions become essential. A modern ERP system integrates all business processes into a centralized platform, providing real-time visibility and control over production and inventory operations. Engineering firms that adopt ERP technology gain the ability to streamline workflows, improve decision-making, and achieve sustainable growth.

As a trusted ERP Software Company in India, Nivida Software helps engineering and manufacturing businesses optimize their operations with intelligent ERP solutions designed for industry-specific challenges.

The Challenges Engineering Companies Face:

Engineering companies typically manage complex manufacturing processes involving multiple departments, suppliers, machines, and inventory locations. Without a centralized system, businesses often encounter:

Inaccurate inventory records

Production planning inefficiencies

Material shortages and overstocking

Delayed procurement processes

Lack of real-time reporting

Poor coordination between departments

Increased operational costs

These challenges directly affect profitability, customer satisfaction, and business scalability. ERP solutions address these concerns by connecting every aspect of the business within a unified digital ecosystem.

Centralized Production Planning and Scheduling:

Production planning is one of the most critical functions in engineering manufacturing. Delays in production schedules can disrupt supply chains and impact customer commitments.

An ERP system centralizes production planning by providing real-time visibility into:

Machine availability

Workforce allocation

Production capacity

Material requirements

Work order status

Managers can create accurate production schedules, monitor progress, and adjust plans based on changing demands. This reduces downtime and ensures optimal utilization of resources.

Companies seeking ERP For Manufacturing Company in Surat often prioritize production planning capabilities because manufacturing businesses require precise scheduling to maintain efficiency and profitability.

Real-Time Inventory Management:

Inventory management remains one of the biggest challenges for engineering companies. Excess inventory increases carrying costs, while stock shortages can halt production entirely.

ERP solutions provide real-time inventory tracking across multiple warehouses and locations. Businesses can monitor:

Raw materials

Work-in-progress inventory

Finished goods

Spare parts

Supplier stock levels

With automated inventory updates, decision-makers gain complete visibility into stock movements and availability.

This helps engineering firms:

Reduce inventory holding costs

Prevent stockouts

Minimize wastage

Improve procurement planning

Maintain optimal inventory levels

Organizations looking for ERP Software in Vadodara are increasingly adopting ERP systems to improve inventory accuracy and eliminate manual stock management challenges.

Better Procurement and Vendor Management:

Engineering companies rely heavily on suppliers for raw materials and components. Delays or errors in procurement can impact production schedules and customer deliveries.

ERP software streamlines procurement by automating:

Purchase requisitions

Purchase orders

Vendor evaluations

Goods receipt processes

Supplier performance tracking

Automated procurement workflows reduce paperwork, improve transparency, and help businesses maintain stronger supplier relationships.

As leading ERP Software Providers in Ahmedabad, companies understand that effective procurement management is essential for reducing operational disruptions and maintaining production continuity.

Improved Demand Forecasting:

Accurate demand forecasting enables engineering companies to align production with market requirements.

Modern ERP systems use historical sales data, inventory trends, production records, and customer demand patterns to generate reliable forecasts.

Benefits include:

Better production planning

Reduced excess inventory

Improved resource allocation

Enhanced customer service

Increased profitability

When businesses can accurately predict demand, they can make informed decisions that improve efficiency across the entire manufacturing cycle.

Enhanced Quality Control Processes:

Quality is a key differentiator for engineering manufacturers. Defective products not only increase costs but can also damage a company's reputation.

ERP solutions help maintain quality standards by integrating quality control checkpoints throughout the production process.

Key quality management features include:

Inspection tracking

Non-conformance management

Corrective action workflows

Quality reporting

Compliance monitoring

By identifying quality issues early, companies can reduce rework, minimize waste, and maintain consistent product standards.

Manual data entry is one of the leading causes of operational inefficiencies. Errors in inventory records, purchase orders, or production schedules can create costly disruptions.

ERP software automates repetitive tasks, including:

Inventory updates

Purchase order generation

Production tracking

Invoice processing

Reporting

Automation significantly reduces human errors while improving accuracy and productivity.

Employees can focus on strategic activities instead of spending time on administrative tasks, resulting in better overall business performance.

Seamless Integration Across Departments:

Engineering companies often struggle with information silos. Production, inventory, procurement, sales, and finance departments may use separate systems that do not communicate effectively.

ERP solutions eliminate these silos by connecting all departments within a single platform.

This integration ensures:

Consistent data across teams

Faster communication

Improved collaboration

Better workflow efficiency

Enhanced customer service

Organizations working with ERP Solution Providers in Ahmedabad frequently prioritize system integration to create a more connected and efficient business environment.

Scalability for Future Growth:

As engineering companies expand, operational complexity increases. Managing larger inventories, multiple production facilities, and growing customer demands becomes challenging without the right technology.

ERP systems are designed to scale alongside business growth. Whether a company is expanding production capacity, opening new locations, or entering new markets, ERP software provides the flexibility needed to support long-term success.

Businesses partnering with established ERP Software Providers in Mumbai often choose scalable ERP solutions that can adapt to changing operational requirements without requiring significant system overhauls.

Why Engineering Companies Should Invest in ERP:

An ERP solution offers numerous benefits, including:

Improved production planning

Better inventory control

Reduced operational costs

Enhanced quality management

Faster decision-making

Greater business visibility

Increased profitability

Scalable growth opportunities

By integrating production, inventory, procurement, finance, and reporting into a unified system, ERP software empowers engineering companies to operate more efficiently and competitively.

Why Every Modern Business Needs the Right IT Company in 2026

In 2026, technology is no longer a support function, it is the business. From startups launching global products to enterprises automating complex workflows, the role of an IT company has evolved into something far more strategic. Choosing the right IT company today can define how fast you grow, how secure your systems are, and how competitive you remain in a digital-first world.

An IT company in 2026 does more than build websites or maintain servers. It acts as a long-term technology partner, helping businesses adapt to rapid changes in AI, cloud computing, cybersecurity, and digital transformation. Companies now expect solutions that are scalable, intelligent, and built with future growth in mind not just quick fixes.

One of the biggest shifts is the rise of AI-driven development. A modern IT company integrates artificial intelligence into software, customer support, data analytics, and even marketing automation. This allows businesses to make smarter decisions, personalize user experiences, and reduce operational costs. What once took weeks can now be optimized in days with the right tech stack and expertise.

Another critical focus area is cybersecurity. As digital operations expand, so do threats. A trusted IT company prioritizes security by design — embedding data protection, compliance, and risk management into every solution. In 2026, security is no longer optional or reactive; it’s proactive and continuous.

Cloud technology also continues to redefine how businesses operate. Leading IT companies help organizations migrate to flexible cloud environments that improve performance, collaboration, and scalability. Whether it’s hybrid cloud setups or fully remote infrastructures, cloud solutions enable teams to work smarter and faster from anywhere in the world.

What truly sets a strong IT company apart is its understanding of business goals. Technology without strategy is just code. The best IT companies invest time in understanding industries, customers, and long-term objectives before proposing solutions. This alignment ensures that technology directly supports growth, efficiency, and innovation.

For startups, an IT company can be the backbone that turns an idea into a product. For established brands, it becomes the engine that drives optimization and digital evolution. In both cases, success depends on choosing a partner that stays ahead of trends, adapts quickly, and values long-term collaboration.

As we move deeper into 2026, one thing is clear: businesses that thrive will be the ones backed by the right IT company, one that blends technology, creativity, and strategy to build what’s next.

What to Look for in Billing and Accounting Software

It becomes increasingly difficult to manage a business when financial documents are scattered in different documents. There are invoices, payments, taxes, and inventories that have to be updated on a regular basis. Manual procedures may result in errors that will require time to correct. A good billing and accounting software can help manage these processes in one place. The accuracy of the financial records, saving time and making routine tasks easier to accomplish for everybody are the main benefits that any business can obtain. The use of software is beneficial for small businesses and big enterprises since it helps reduce paperwork and improve financial record management. Some companies even combine their accounting software with call center software and keep the information about customers, invoices, and the history of services provided at hand during each call.

Features Useful for Daily Business Processes

First of all, one needs to consider whether the software does all the necessary business-related functions. Full-fledged billing and accounting software will be able to perform invoicing, payments, purchase processing, and financial reports preparation without using several applications. An inventory management system may be helpful because it automatically updates the stock after every transaction made.

GST billing, tax calculation, and customer accounts management are time-saving features as well. In companies where customers contact them by phone, the application can be integrated with call center software. It will enable customer support specialists to see the information about invoices and payments while talking to customers.

User-Friendly and Scalable

Ease of use is one of the primary characteristics that software should have. Employees will be able to master the software easily without spending months on training thanks to a user-friendly dashboard. The clear menu structure, organized reporting, and convenient navigation will help staff perform their tasks more efficiently.

Business requirements are subject to change over time. There can be an increase in the number of employees, expansion of branches, and an increased customer base. The chosen software should be able to accommodate all these changes without needing to be replaced completely. It is good for growing businesses to have multi-user support, cloud storage, automated backups, and data protection. At the same time, if the business uses call center software, the integration of both is important.

Reports, Security, and Integration

The owner of the business must receive reports on time to make decisions. A good billing and accounting solution must have reports on sales, purchases, profit, cost, tax, and overdue payments. Reports at real time give an opportunity for managers to control the activity of business without delay until the end of the month.

The security of financial records is an important issue too. The business information is kept in financial records, and it is necessary that the system provides protection of data via user permissions and data backups. It is good when integration with other solutions is provided. Companies integrate accounting platforms with inventory systems, CRM, payment gateway, and call center software.

Conclusion

The selection of the correct billing and accounting software is not just about generating invoices. It is about choosing an application which will help your business run smoother, maintain proper records and save a lot of time. Software which has the ability to generate reports, manage inventory, deal with taxes, has security measures in place and is easy to navigate will definitely make your life easier.

In addition, the software which integrates with other business tools is highly beneficial. The integration with call center software, for example, will allow customer service employees to have access to all the billing information instantly and be able to give better service.
