I have the feeling that SAP is trying to make money with AI instead of using it to sell more ERP and other business solutions.

It happened with SAP HANA and now again. Sorry, but I fundamentally disagree with this strategy.

The way the SAP Community wipes even the most valued members off their platform is... just terrible

From one day to the other you become an anonymous "retired_member" or "former_member", never to be named again, cast to the side, dead.

WHY?

To claw or not to claw? That is the question

Do you claw already?

The funnel has changed forever:

Traditional:
Marketing → Landing page → Docs → Trial → Evaluation → Conversion

Agent funnel:
Problem → AI suggestion → npm install → Subscription

Marketing as we know it ☠️

Speed of Dev is accelerating immensely

Agent-driven projects deliver in minutes. Human dev overlord approves hourly. Moltbot for example is over 8000 commits in two months of existence.

How’s your SAP project doing? What’s your avg number of released transports per day?

I guess my eyes are getting old but ABAP help on my iPhone needs serious magnifying glasses

Is it that difficult to make this responsive in 2026?

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

SAP Billing keeping it safe...

Min 30 characters password 😲
But then not longer than 41 characters 😂

PS: Good ol' NetWeaver, of course. Guess it's not that easy to upgrade to S/4 or whatever.

We keep enhancing #abapGit

Here's a nice link to see what was added recently (since we tagged PRs more thoroughly). It's mostly support for new object types but there are some other goodies, too, that you might not know about:
