Man I've felt this for YEARS and I feel like I'm taking crazy pills with all the youtubers and influencers proclaiming Apple's Connected Ecosystem as such as productivity advantage. Either you can't sign in with your per

If I insinuated that GraphQL is dead, that wasn't my intention. It definitely has fallen out of the spotlight, however. I'd point to e.g. looking at statistically how many APIs ran by major internet companies are available over Gr

If the primary selling point of the new technology is something like GraphQL's "if your API doesn't have a good single route to get the data for this page, GraphQL can synthesize it"; frontend just doesn't, in gener

This is the problem with metaphor; eventually their legs run out. The more correct metaphor is: Walmart sells you a coloring book. In the back of that coloring book there's a mail-in coupon: send it in, $5 for a second coloring book. W

Most Tesla owners' sense of how advanced other cars have gotten is influenced directly by the frames per second their infotainment systems run at; which, admittedly, is quite bad, but hardly a broad indicator.

The longer this case goes on, the scummier Apple looks. Firing back with a 27% cut isn't going to relieve pressure from this vessel; its going to piss off developers even more, its going to drag the case out even longer, and frankly it

I don't necessarily think the problem is the range loss; the problem is the lower range to begin with, and the unreliable public charging infrastructure. The 2024 Toyota Camry gets over 600 miles of highway range. We don't think a

This being the first midwest winter I've had a Model Y: there's parts of the experience that are really bad, and parts that aren't as bad as I thought they'd be. I don't have a place to plug it in most evenings, a

How have they leveraged this argument against the idea that the user who purchased the device has some level of right to use the IP on the phone they purchase? Phrase this question another way: if I were to write and sell some application f

I feel its genuinely important to not dismiss this valid observation, and recognize it as actually something that is happening. Its not just Google, and I think Johnathan Blow captures the trend really well in this talk [1]. Both the doomer

Arguing (also known as: pushing back) is how you communicate that what happened was wrong. It won't impact the decision; they're just the messengers; but it might impact how the messengers feel about what happened, which might c

I tend to feel, just error handling in general. Its not even something I'd care so much about, if it didn't seem like everyone else felt like the way Go does errors is great. You can't/shouldn't do custom error type

I have a Model Y. I think there's a ton of disingenuous discourse concerning EV range. Tesla will say that it has, idk, 310 mile range or something. It never has this range, period. - You cannot run it down to 0%, much like you can&#x2

Baulders Gate 3 has quite great Apple Silicon & MacOS support. I know of a few normally-non-gamers who loaded that up on their Mac over the past couple months.

Music industry revenue hit an all-time high in 2023; it didn't fully recover from what napster/etc did to it in the early 2000s, until this/last year. Interesting that Vinyl makes up like 10% of their revenue. But, streaming

I feel its a valid concern, but the way companies generally respond to the concern is what is invalid. Teams should lift everyone up, not push superstars down. E.g. How much active knowledge sharing on the superstar's domain of experti

by 015a 3y ago
One strong argument (maybe the only one) for the concept of controlling superstar players is the reality that they are going to leave, eventually; maybe for a better job, maybe retirement, maybe they get hit by a bus. If your output is en

Most of the NYT is behind a signin screen; the classic "you can read the first paragraph of the page but pay us to see more" thing. There is significant evidence (220,000 pages worth) in their lawsuit that ChatGPT was trained on

As you already know yet are being intentionally daft about: They didn't use an LLM trained on copywritten material. There's a canyon of difference between leveraging AI as a tool, and AI leveraging you as a tool. LLMs have, to my

by 015a 3y ago
Maybe (though there exist plenty of examples to the contrary). However, the NYT isn't suing you , ChatGPT user; they're suing OpenAI.

What do you actually believe, with that statement? Do you believe Libraries are operating illegally? That they aren't paying rightsholders? Also: GPT is not a legal entity in the united states. Humans have different rights than compu

by 015a 3y ago
Yup, and I think that'll quickly uncover the reality that LLMs do not generate enough value relative to their true cost. GPT+ already costs $20/month. M365 Copilot costs $30/user/month. They're already the most expe

This is confusing: Tesla publishes that Tesla's vehicles, both with and without autopilot, are the subject of substantially fewer accidents per million miles driven than the US average; last quarter, somewhere ~4.8M miles/accident
