@saraaccidentally wrote "saad" instead of "saas" in a text to my partner; they immediately coined "Software as a Disappointment"
and honestly, where is the lie

joe@sara It's nice to see all the software I've ever written can now be classified
Paulo Koch@sara /me cries in truth
Lalo Martins@sara well the problem with SaaD is that it's not so much a category, but really, most software, very close to all

Digital Mark λ ☕️ 🕹 👽@sara DaaS: Disappointment as a Service. (most major vendors)
Seth "Football Collector"@sara I need to share this with my team tomorrow. They'll get it!
azul@sara also works: Software as a Disservice
Mike Garuccio@sara due to this toot I’ll never be able to read DaaS as anything other than “Disappointment as a Service”

__red__I love accidental typos like this.
Reminds me about when I said I prefer to find bugs at compile-time verses ruintime.
Nathanael Newton@sara when I worked for bell Canada i had a bunch of demotivational posters on my wall, one of them was
'customer disservice, because we're not happy until you're not happy'
My boss made me take it down because they said it 'pissed off the client' 🙊

@elfinit
That's PERFECT!
`Da Elf@juliewebgirl @sara It really, really is.
SaaD: Software as a Disappointment ... That's like, 94% of Commercial Software (and 35% of FOSS).
That's a Hell of a Marketing term.
I AM BANKSY ☕ / 🗑🔥@sara It's all so clear now. I can't think of much that isn't SaaD.

corb@sara As a software developer and user for 40 years, this is way too painfully true.
Denis Veltson@sara OT: "saad" is an estonian word for ("to get", as in "You will get" :)

Refurio AnachroTheme song for this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypfoUcXg2nA
Some background, the vocals are by Lebanese actress and singer Sabah (Janet Gerges Feghali) and seems to have been first recorded in the 80's. Her song is so famous and has been covered so many times that I found it quite difficult to find good references about its history. It doesn't help that I don't speak the language.

Sasha Strange@sara This is hands down, the worst I've ever felt after reading a joke and being mad I didn't come up with it first.

Britstralian@sara Sometimes autocorrect just *knows*. A client of mine postponed a call yesterday as he had had a "packed aches of meetings today". I truly feel his pain!
duanetoops@sara ...that checks out...
Justin Derrick@sara This week I had to jump through a LOT of hoops to get set up at a new client site, and one of those things involved getting an exception from their security team. When we had trouble meeting the requirements, I jokingly referred to the security team as “NaaS” - “NO! As a Service”. I ended up agreeing to use a buggy 10 year old version of some software because it was “approved”, rather than the latest version, which remains unapproved after 3 years.
John Steel@sara I love this 😅
