These seem like good checkpoints (and valid criticisms) on the road to progress. But it's also not crazy to think that with LLMs getting smarter (and considerable resources put into making them better at coding), that future versions w

Funny enough, this was in their Apple Intelligence demo. I'm not sure whether this actually shipped.

That's wonderful news. I hope it translates to being baked into the built-in apps like Home/Siri.

It's not about being fancy. My examples are so utterly dull. Being able to say "turn on the lights in the living room and turn off the fans in the kids' rooms" – is not a crazy use case. Instead, I literally have to say:

At this point, just about anything Apple can do will be way way way better than the absolute turd that is Siri. (It was only impressive 15 years ago). Apple's AI strategy has seriously hurt their reputation. I'd love to be a fly o

I think that is what the parent is alluding to, when it comes to waiting for more facts. One of those facts might be intent or misheard orders. It might just be that this actually happened (as a war crime) but it is probably too early to te

This is all very cool, but I hate to be the "look at the shiny lights" guy... How did they do that pretty "GEMINI" gradient in the terminal? is that a thing we can do nowadays? It doesn't seem to be some blocky grad

Yes, but if I'm implementing "good old function/tool calling" today, why would I not implement it as MCP? I suppose it complicates things? MCP, in addition to being tooling endpoints, would also open up my software to a

Technically, if it's all clean energy, does it matter if it's "energy-efficient"? So it seems like the better goal is to just aim for more clean energy.

Does anyone subscribe to The Free Press? Worth paying for? It’s more long form rather than daily but I’m curious. I have liked their podcasts. Are they as heterodox behind the curtain as they claim?

I use ground news. It’s fine and gets the job done. Maybe I’ve gotten used to it. I have liked the blindspot feature though. It was very useful during the US election when one sided reporting was especially bad. But I personally still find

Let me clarify. Things are only going in one direction. So if you’re not in the minority now, you will be in time. This is not a “tech bro” thing (as someone else said). There is real substance to it.

It definitely feels better than cursor to me. However, Cursor Tab keeps bringing me back. That, and the limited plugin ecosystem. Not that I haven’t found the plugin I needed (elixir tools) but it doesn’t let me configure which warnings to

Isn't the problem they're trying to fix that there isn't enough local academic talent (because they chronically under-spent in the past)? Are they trying to jump start and gain momentum?

It also makes me wonder whether our adversarial intelligence agencies already know and track these kinds of vulnerabilities (through open source intel on procurement contracts, etc) and it's stuck in a classified document somewhere?

Does this even matter, if you can copy/mount files over a network? What are potential use cases where you'd want to support those additional file systems? External drives?
