      So what’s the new term then? Because Software as a Service isn’t a new thing, it’s just the “current” thing. I just presume the new “term” is just a new way to nickel and dime the customer.

      And we’ll replace nearly everything on the Internet with…what exactly? Big brother watching for thought crimes?

      What a clickbait headline. This is the first sentence of the article

      > According to Danny Lukus, a deployment strategist at Palantir Technologies, “SaaS is dead.” We were talking specifically about Palantir’s approach to supplying software for supply chain management.

      A single Palantir employee is claiming a very specific type of SaaS is dead and even then, when you read the rest of the article, he’s really just claiming that the write once, sell forever type SaaS is dead.

      TLDR: Palantir will help develop an application that talks to a base SaaS through an API to do additional functionality. But good luck getting support for it.

      Ah ok, so O365 that runs half the fucking world is ending? Hallelujah.

      Of course you’d say that since your business model is building expensive custom implementations. You’d want everything to be in your platform and eco-system.

      The typical ERPs have large templates and process heavy. You are selling “out of the box” thinking and customization. You have to make the legacy incumbents and other SaaS providers look bloated and non competitive since you want to win the market share.

      ‘*We put the @$$ in $@@$!!*’…

      Per the article…

      “Palantir uses “forward-deployed engineers” to provide solutions that are specifically tailored to their customers. These engineers determine the capabilities and processes their customers want to develop to fill the gaps left by their standard software. Essentially, the Palantir solution is built on top of solutions like SAP and Oracle.”

      …aka, “Consulting”.

      🤦🏻‍♂️

      Well given that SaaS is there whole business model that’s probably bad for them

      >I had seen the CEO of Advance Auto Parts speak at a UBS Global Consumer and Retail Conference. He mentioned that Advance Auto is working with Palantir for an inventory replenishment and a pricing solution.

      Is there a list anywhere of companies that contract with Palantir? I’d love to be able to avoid them.

      Alex Karp is an actual crazy person. Look at that hair. It tells you everything you need to know.

      Ai prompt: Claude, read all the docs about Azure’s features and build me a thing that does those things.

      I would like to see the true percentage of people that like that company and its owners. Wack jobs.

      Palantir reminds me of the people chasing Will Smith in Enemy of the State.

      Fuck this guy, thats a pretty bold statement. Maybe next time they pay their AWS bill they should consider what type of service AWS is. Dead my fucking ass.

      What this twat meant to say is “my ridiculous looking bird’s nest of a hairpiece” is dead. RIP.

      And I am sure Palantir doesn’t have backdoors into this solution they sell so they can Hoover every little scrap of information. /s

      I want to know with all sincerity how people end up this horrifically evil. Like, how, seriously. Is his brain wired wrong? I don’t get it, I truly don’t.
