I am a self driving skeptic but seems like a good bet for Carmack. I would expect Waymo to open up to consumers before 2030 in SF, even if more expensive and take way longer than a normal car. It could be little more than a tech demo and he

I mean this in the most kind way possible but you might be reading within your echo chamber too much. You might be correct but your view are completely different than the normal person. The average person would not have any issue with have

There is absolutely a tech optimism bias which he is upfront about. I would find it very hard to find any one that deeply understands technology and makes their living writing about technology that does not think technological progress is a

Even if all the employees don’t quit, losing even a quarter would be devastating. They will have a reputation as a shit show and lose all the best people to anthropic, Microsoft and google. They have the best product right now but everythin

4k on 32” is usable but is very clearly much less sharp than 4k on 27”. If you can’t tell the difference, you might need to update your glasses or contacts.

$6 is the average but the set of people willing to pay for add free are both the heaviest users and the ones with the most disposable income. Let’s say you offer this for $6, only the top 10% would pay for it. But the top 10% might generate

Don’t you think blind people are smart enough to know when something requires a human to review versus an AI?

Agreed. I have a 13 mini personal and a normal 12 as my work phone. I hate the regular size so much.

While I grant you the upgradability argument. From a practical perspective, I see iPhones and MacBooks being used for a way longer time than windows laptops or android phones. Part of that is being more expensive but I don't think that

Seems pretty reasonable to me if you are really just sending your resume to every listing that makes any sense. I tried to pick roles I am a decent fit at and I am seeing like a 1 in 20-30 response rate. LinkedIn jobs are showing 100+ appli

This comment is kind of baffling to me. I agree that first party end to end encryption is not a silver bullet and it is over sold. But in use cases where it makes sense, like messaging, it is a virtue and absolutely is worth the connivence

It mostly likely a combination. This could blow over with the correct PR campaign. Spez idiocy is making this way worse than it should have been and risking everything. If Reddit just came out and said they can’t support third party apps. T

Maybe it a step back for you but look around. The phone won. Tablets, laptops, etc will never make a comeback to be nearly as important or popular as the smart phone. The only question is when a new thing will replace it. IMO it is not goin

Part of the reason big companies aren't going out of their way to screw over small companies is the terrible PR they get. Excusing it as just business negates this effect.

If you are not a good communicator, you will build the wrong thing. You will not fully understand what matters in what you building or be building something that is a lower priority. If you are still a good listener, which is 80+% of the wa

The median communicator is a very poor communicator most of the time. Communication takes active focus and effort and the default is zoning out or making assumptions about what the other is saying.

I agree with you but the sports metaphor undersells your point. Coaches usually don't matter all that much unless you are going from a truly terrible one. Bad management isn't like not a great coach, it like having a team where al

In small companies, I agree with you. However, in a big company the quality of individual work doesn't matter much at all. Most of the time will be spent on communication, prioritization, compliance, and oversight overhead. On top of t

Pretty much every sedative, ambian, alcohol, etc, will decrease REM sleep and increase deep sleep. I have no idea about THC but assume the effect is similar.

I don't really see your point. AI/ML can make programs the same way as humans, which is writing a program that seems right but it very wrong and keep iterating until it mostly works, most of the time.

It very much seems like this is the default and Microsoft and OpenAI are trying and failing to engineer the LLM into being PC and kind of a shitty search engine. The interesting bit is how good it is at seeming human and milking empathy out
