... It looks like Twitter. I'm not taking the piss, it's literally what it looks like. But do click the article to see the weird home screen logo I guess.

The fact "the Linux creator" is involved in this stupid political drama exchange says a lot about the sorry state of our society these days. I'm not criticizing Linus, I'm just reflecting on the global cultural climate t

I'll wait a year and open GPT-5, point to the Adobe Creative Suite, and tell it "make dis" for $20.

I don't like the implications of the quoted "discovered".

In your mind it's not that different. Consider the importance of media on shaping your thoughts, beliefs, memories, emotions. Whether delivered through a cinema screen or a tiny phone doesn't matter. VR/AR has wow factor, but

Interesting. When you consider he may be a Russian asset, and that's a significant revenue source, his decision to be on Twitter makes more sense. He can combine both revenue streams and make ends meet. I doubt Twitter alone can pay hi

You added a citation, but your cited source is wrong. The external battery is 2hrs. The device can't operate without an external power source.

He's concentrating really hard on Twitter right now. This is why 80% of engineers are out, ad revenue is down %60 and going lower, and the lawsuits are piling. It's hilarious and sad to watch. He has no clue what's he doing.

So it looked like a bad idea to most people. But to few, it seemed obvious. Should they try it, or should they project their thoughts onto others and pass because if it's obvious, no point doing it? It's very simple. Take everythi

His goal was to become X, the everything person. This is what happens when you're surrounded by yes-men non-stop for like a decade and they tell you that you're awesome at everything you do. You start drinking your own Kool-Aid.

It's a quite vapid argument. "No point doing the obvious because someone already tried it!... And they tried it because they ignored this very advice you're reading right now!" This argument is akin you "no matter w

I'm sure it's true that this happened and the young Pakistani dev won out. But the generalization from this anecdotal example to broad conclusions is of course BS. We know nothing about this German coder, what they specialized in

The end of self service in certain regions. Large franchises will learn to adapt to local conditions. One strategy fits all is a bad strategy. Did you know in Japan there are food vending stands which is just.. racks of food with price on t

We'll eventually be paid to just hit an "AI, do the thing" button repeatedly 9 to 5, and eventually someone will figure out "wait, we don't need humans for this."

AR won't happen in the mainstream. Not with this tech. I see only investor influencers and nerdy "I can now have a virtual girlfriend" fellas excited about this. The same crowd that was getting psychotic over Web3's pote

I'd change your strategy a bit, yes. 1. Twitter is collapsing, I wouldn't invest in the account, but of course do look-up people you like and want to connect to and engage with them and seek contacts off Twitter. 2. Everyone is su

If they wanted that, they'd allow top-level code, instead of this weird halfway method of doing it.

Everything is possible. We're discussing what's likely and not likely. I don't buy the hallucination theory. BTW, technically it "hallucinates" everything, because it has no connection to the outside world, only mem

Very unlikely. That's a pretty accurate description of the startup. "CollegeAI" doesn't suggest at all it's an admission matching platform. The hot take would've been it's a college driven by AI, or colleg

Being nice is indeed the classic startup strategy. Then they grow up. More people come knock on the door. Other people go away. And the company becomes the only thing it can become. Another corporation, acting like a corporation. Of course,
