Anyone who claims they're good at programming is still learning. We're all just, more comfortable with nuances but still really bad at it. Programming rocks to do things correctly is hard.

The more I read this, the more I feel like web attestation is going to be suggested as a way to prove AI bots vs humans. They've been trying to push this through for a while now (to some moderate success). This may be the final push th

There's very low margin of error for a user trying something over speech (where they don't know what's actually capable). A user tends to try something once, if it fails they nearly never try it again. So now the question is,

yea... I want to disable notifications but I don't want to miss my Apple Card payment notifications. Now my thought is to cancel my Apple Card so I can disable notifications and not miss anything. Notification ads are the modern day po

How do the Addons work? Are they just pre-built Dockerfile s? Or is there more to them? I'd love to request mariadb if there's something special beyond just a dockerfile/docker image.

I personally point the blame on their constant breaking of SDK and API surfaces. From 7 to 8 and then to 10, so many APIs that were in use just broke and had no real 1:1 equivalent. I also think the death of Silverlight had a hand in it.

Used to work for a company that owned a Teams extension. Teams updates will just randomly break your extension behavior without any warning or heads up. The migration to their "new teams" app was brutal. Their SDK is built into 2

I also see it as a contingency plan. How do customers get help from you if your service has interrupted downtime? Relying on separate systems helps you be available still. It's one of those things that is not a problem until it's

If you hit `a` in the search results page it'll take you to a chat interface to better grok the AI in a conversational format. Not exactly the same as perplexity still, but more ChatGPT akin. There's also a continue in assistant

I honestly thought Salesforce was leaning this direction with Quip and Slack. Granted, Quip was never a good product. So I guess that fumbled.

Yea after their blatant disregard for community after the API fiasco, I decided I didn't need to use Reddit anymore. For a while I just used hacker news. Then I picked up TikTok. It isn't horrible but I sometimes have to be carefu

wow I loved Triplebyte. The startup scene in Seattle was so small compared to the Bay area, so finding interesting companies was tough. I also loved skipping some of these places' horrible phone screens. The triplebyte backpack is STIL

To be fair, they've been shown to still track unauthenticated users via fingerprinting and mapping it to known data from your friends who do have Facebook and upload this data (phone numbers, first, last name, etc). NOT having an accou

They have a governance panel for all AWS services that approves design docs and API contracts (at least this is what I was told by an old manager who worked on AWS back in the day).

I need them to get rid of the notch. It's so obnoxious. I'll run my M1 Air into the ground until they get rid of the notch.

I use Migadu for email. Great service that doesn't get in my way of using my email the way I need to (which isn't anything crazy honestly).

I've also been seeing Typeform emails coming from spam sources. Somehow people are using Typeform's positive reputation score to send emails to arbitrary emails.

+1 on Migadu. Service has been rock solid. Pricing is very reasonable. The few times I've needed customer support has been helpful.

I personally switched away from DDG when they started removing results that were errantly removed by Bing. Since Bing is their upstream results provider, I didn't feel like I was getting away from the overreach of big tech, so I went t

I'd equate Nvidia to being the seller of materials needed to make a specific shovel shown to be very good at digging gold. Microsoft and their kiln are buying all the materials to make their own shovel shop. They're also buying th

It's because there's a huge cloud first push internally. Leadership is trying to find any way they can find to leverage Azure and recurring revenue.

There was a lot of contention when Cortana was being integrated into the start menu directly. They have very temperamental performance tests for first paint on the start menu open. Cortana caused their 250ms (or something to that number) fi
