I know nothing about the industry let alone in the era, but I imagine 'drawing glassware for Pyrex catalogue' wasn't a full-time job - but either a temporary contract, or just one project for an agency. So you might view it a

Of course sight is more serious than smartphone; my point is that if you rely on a for-profit company, then you should take that consideration (familiar from smartphones) more seriously for your sight. Occurs to me there was actually a Blac

You hate that there is a standard, or aspects of this one? (Or that it's a de facto standard, not clearly specified for example what's required and what just happens to be in AWS' implementation?)

It's not the only imaginable way, but it is the society we (in the vast majority of the world) live in, and I agree it doesn't really make sense to bash something not continuing to exist unprofitably when it was developed for prof

For the big ones the consistent familiar design language of the app becomes more important, or at least they can argue/get away with that, for the random crap companion app to a £5 drop-shipped FYGUIO-'brand' gizmo, it's

Or they just don't even do it? Michelin tyres aren't best fitted by a Michelin shop, those don't exist. You go to KwikFit or whatever you think's best, and get Michelin or Continental or Pirelli or whatever you think

Also people don't talk enough about (or are bad at separating themselves) the model vs. the client tool - e.g. from your comment maybe using codex/Claude Code/aider with Gemini API would be better, best even, but people rarel

It shouldn't be your only layer of security, and then it's not important. Think of it as replacing explicit IP black/whitelisting - you still want a login wall or something, but now you restrict access to guess logins or othe

It just makes trusted/verified sources more important, and more people to care about it. I wouldn't be terrified for politics so much as the raised barrier to entry (and concentration) of the press - people will pay attention to t

I believe GP means it still to be connected to 'if this kind of latency is unacceptable to you' - i.e. you can't load/use/unload, you have to keep it in RAM all the time. In that case it's massively increasing

It's still functional though, the point is comparing 'keep running the old tired one' vs 'replace with new', not 'how well were they made then vs now'.
