Congratulations to Artemis II on a successful mission! You captured the wonders of space and our planet beautifully, taking iPhone photography to new heights, and we’re grateful you shared it with the world. Your work continues to inspire us all to think different. Welcome home!

Fou de devoir encore expliquer ça en 2026 mais c’est vrai que c’est un méconnu d’un (trop) grand nombre.

Un excellent résumé de ces derniers jours concernant clawdbot / moltbot / openclaw ⤵️

I spent $1.4 million on Microsoft Copilot. $30 per seat per month. 4,000 employees. Why? 2 words. Digital transformation. This morning I opened Microsoft Teams. My top notification wasn't from my boss. It wasn't from my team. It wasn't a customer escalation. It wasn't my wife. It was Microsoft. Telling me to learn how to use the thing I already bought. It said ... "Elevate your expertise with new Copilot courses." I've had these licenses for 6 months. Apparently ... I should have waited. The courses are 47 minutes each. There are 9 of them. That's 7 hours of learning. Times 4,000 employees. 28,000 hours. To learn the tool ... that was supposed to save us 40,000 hours. We're already down 12,000 hours. And no one's opened it yet. Here's the math I don't put in the deck. 4,000 employees. Average salary ... $105,000. That's $50 an hour. Times 7 hours of training. Times 4,000 people. $1.4 million. In labor. Just to learn the tool. The training ... costs as much as the software. $2.8 million. Year 1. To save 12,000 hours. That's $233 ... per hour saved. The CFO will never see this slide. But I'll mandate the training. Completion rates will be tracked. Tracked means dashboarded. Dashboarded means presented. Presented means ... "adoption metrics are strong." The graph will go up ... and to the right. Strong adoption ... of the training ... for the tool no one uses. Microsoft will send another case study team. The case study will be called "Enterprise drives 98% Copilot Academy completion." The CEO will post it on LinkedIn. He still won't know what Copilot does. But he'll know we're ... "committed to continuous learning." Learning is a journey. The journey costs $1.4 million per year. Plus $1.4 million in training labor. To summarize emails ... we could read in 30 seconds. But here's the thing. I'll renew next year. Because canceling requires a business case. The business case requires ROI data. The ROI data comes from the dashboard. The dashboard shows 98% training completion. 98% is a success. Success means renewal. Renewal means ... I keep my job. My job is ... making decisions. I made a decision. The decision was $2.8 million. The decision cannot be wrong. Because wrong decisions ... don't get promoted. I got promoted. So the decision was right. This is called ... "strategic alignment." Next quarter ... we're adding Microsoft 365 Copilot Studio. It costs extra. It lets us build ... custom Copilots. Custom Copilots ... to automate the workflows ... no one has ... because everyone's still ... in training. Microsoft says it's ... "transformational." I believe them. I have to. I already signed the contract.

@julien_c I wish… still a few days for me though. Well done!

Je n'ai pas souvent l'occasion de vous emmener dans mon travail, mais je profite que ce chantier ne soit pas tout à fait terminé pour vous faire découvrir le NRO de Maubeuge ! 😅 N'hésitez pas à poser vos questions, j'adore faire découvrir l'envers du décor. Il y a encore plein de beaux projets à venir chez @Techcrea_fibre, vous êtes prévenu 🫣

The story of FCKGW-RHQQ2-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8. If you're not the type to pay for your software, you probably know this key. What you might not know is that I worked on the first version of Windows Product Activation, and this was our first major "hack". And yet, it wasn't a 'hack' at all - it was a disastrous leak. The FCKGW key was a valid volume licensing key, so all you needed was special volume media to go with it. Eventually, they were bundled and put online by pirates. WPA worked by generating a hardware ID from your CPU, RAM, and other components, then sending it to Microsoft alongside your product key for validation. A mismatched or suspicious key would flag the install as pirated. But as a legitimate VLK, FCKGW-RHQQ2-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8 was whitelisted in XP's activation logic—it told the system, "This is corporate volume licensing; no need to phone home." During installation, users selected the "Yes, I have a product key" option, entered the code, and WPA simply... skipped the activation prompt. The OS booted fully functional, with no 30-day timer or watermarks. It even fooled early validation checks for updates. This loophole let pirates distribute "pre-activated" ISOs, making XP as easy to "acquire" as a free mixtape. Technically, you could still use it today on an old XP disc (if you can find one), but Microsoft's servers shut down validation years ago, and the key's long since been blacklisted.
