I don't know and can't speak for the team, but I suspect the "launching new products" is not a significant factor in the delays. It sounds to me like the delays are as a result of hardware manufacturing things (which may

Not so surprising. In the interim, Apple watch became a thing, and Apple has since locked down the ability for third-party smart-watches to do things in the iOS ecosystem. Some info from Eric: https://ericmigi.com/blog/

At its core LLM / agent systems such as this consists of a weights file (essentially a long list of numbers) and a reasonably straightforward algorithm that you could, given enough time, operate with a pen and paper. There's a lot

Data centers in space make perfect sense, in exactly the same way as a jetpack made perfect sense. It is an excellent vehicle to ride out some juicy government contracts for as long as you can keep the grift going. https://plural

oh my GOD I'm wheezing here :D I fly next week, I will have to decide whether having this conversation is worth not trying to get out of the opt-out procedure. The difficulty will be keeping a straight face.

I tried to opt out in the UK last time I was there a few years ago. The agent looked at me, confused, and said "so... you don't want to get on the plane?". She told me the the UK didn't allow opt-outs. This was the only

This is brilliant. I continue to opt out and get the pat down every single time. Which is annoying because they deliberately make it slow and anxiety inducing with your bags are out of sight for quite a while. I used to "punish" t

Yeah, I feel that. But I promise you, within one week I had one single regret: that I had not done this years ago. Also, I very much recommend using your own domain. It greatly eases the feeling of having to commit, because your email addre

My gmail address was also almost exactly 20 years old when I migrated two years ago. Here's how I did it: -- 1. Register your domain (if you're doing that) and get fastmail set up -- I remember feeling a physical discomfort clicki

Isn't this the same chicken-and-egg problem? > If you enable it, then all your 2FAs are leaked once Google password is leaked Nope, you'd also need my Google 2fa.

I wish I lived in your world. It is very rare I find a long-sleeved garment whose sleeves are long enough, and it usually only takes a wash or two for them to become too short :(

Not really relevant to the conversation, but: I stumbled across your watchface recently and absolutely love it. It's remarkable how much information density you've achieved while still maintaining "at a glance" clarity.

Once upon a time I read the joking phrase "M as in Mancy" and now it is the only thing I can ever think of when trying to spell out the letter M. Perhaps I have now infected one of you. I am sorry.

Huh. I remember a while ago Google Authenticator hid TOTP codes until you tap on them to reveal them. I remember thinking this was an absolutely stupid feature, because it did not mitigate any real threat and was annoying and inconvenient.
