HTML is an implementation detail and JSX is a syntax for describing UI components. For example JSX can be reused across different contexts such as for React Mobile. It just so happens most usage of JSX is used to render HTML so it superfici

You wouldn’t have to build a new intel. Their IP, infrastructure, and even the individual talent pool won’t simply disappear. They can either get redistributed into more competent companies like their competitors or restructured into a new

The AI agents tend to fail for me with open ended or complex tasks requiring multiple steps. But I’ve found it massively helpful if you have these two things: 1) a typed language… better if strongly typed 2) your program is logically struct

Speaking of translation with LLMs I've been looking for a solution to quickly open a bi-directional translation context without having to prompt ChatGPT or any other LLM every time. iOS lets you set the action button to use the default

I'm saying they should be. Rather than fighting to stop them from doing it, force them to legally open it to the public domain. Often the training code already is, so if they use public data they should release a public model.

That "industry" is everyone's industry if AI models that rely on public data is available to the public. Then everyone can benefit.

We have copyright laws to protect innovation as have deemed it as a society (for the most part) to be important, but there is no fundamental right to the protection of information. So the question now is: is it worth protecting the rights o

I've been working on a pickleball/badminton (or really any doubles type sport) event manager which integrates an Elo-style statistical rating system (OpenSkill) into the client-side UI. By simply logging the win/loss of every

I've found it works for suburban streets really well, and I've even used it for city streets with no problems. Nothing about city streets makes it not work except the need to frequently stop for lights and stop signs.

Actually these things usually pretty customer-sided. Obviously if you ask Amazon they will say you got it, but if you side-step them and they didn't get a signature it becomes hard for them to defend. They usually skip signature confir

This is exactly why adversarial countries like China want to block large multinational social media and technology companies from their market. India saw facebook try to meddle in their elections. This is probably why the US should block

My backup is also replicated. Once on my hard drive and once on my phone. Secondly, it’s apple’s job to build this feature. I’m not talking about why I do or do not do it myself. I’m talking about why apple doesn’t make it, which is because

It’s 3 taps that require specific instructions that no one knows how to do. An app store may require taps but you can link to a page that has an Install button. These small ux decisions make of break a feature or pattern. For example we had

Apple's 30% app cut is why we don't have the ability to make websites and web apps appear and operate like an app. Pinning a website onto your home screen to make it seem like an app is a cumbersome process which can't be aut

Vietnam is arguably less developed than China, but their bathrooms are way cleaner on average.

Granted I was mostly outside of the urban core of tier 1 cities, but most places I went people were constantly smoking in bathrooms, had to BYOTP, and floors were often covered in urine. In some second tier cities like Harbin it was basical

Apart from public bathrooms being much dirtier on average, they’ve modernized quite a bit. So, you can take me as 1st hand anecdotal evidence.
