The start menu worked 30 years ago on a 32mb of RAM and a box of scraps.

Except every year you didn't have people like Pewdiepie and DHH pushing Linux. As as channels like GamersNexus doing Linux benchmarks. At the same time Windows and Mac making very dumb mistakes. So this time it does feel different,

You're welcome to try the LLM's yourself and come up with your own conclusions. By what you've posted it doesn't look like you've tried the anything in the last 2 years. Yes LLM's can be annoying, but there h

So you don't use the built-in Terminal? What about Finder, Safari, Mail, Spotlight, System Settings, etc? If someone doesn't care about how they look, they should use all the built-in stuff right?

> But I don't care that much about how things look, so it doesn't offend me. So I'm guessing you use some default Mac editor (Xcode?)? You don't change your color scheme, you don't change your font, etc? Aside:

I can conclude based on using FSD every single day. I've hit issues just like this, as well as police directing. And it's completely fine.

It kind of makes sense. Why program or train on such a rare occurrence. Just send it off to a human to interpret and be done with it. If that's the case then Tesla is closer to Waymo then previously thought. Maybe even ahead.

I used PureBasic back in like 2003 or 2004. It was super simple. Looks like it's still around and the site looks unchanged since then. Probably crazy fast on modern hardware

MacOS is abysmal with backwards compatibility. In the music space, everything just breaks every few years. With Snow Leopard, Lion, Catalina, Sequoia. While Windows versions work forever, you're stuck having to upgrade and buy new v

I used some software called Project 5 from Cakewalk back in 2006, as well as VST plugins. I can still install it and use it on Windows 11. Meanwhile, basic plugins from that time stopped working on Mac OS X Lion.

I've been saying what we actually need is universal dental care vs universal health care for over 15 years. Giving out universal health care without dental care is like changing the oil in a car but failing to see the tires aren'

Gnome still does things way better than MacOS. Multiple desktops can be used with no animations. Built-in hot keys for applications without a 3rd party tool. Gnome extensions, a search that works for finding things (I know this is hard fo

That's just a unified memory architecture. Strix Halo has this, too. It's not only Apple. Memory bandwidth is lower than the ultra series but faster or on par for every other M series processor.

> Not much has changed or improved on the pure fundamentals I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. What DE are you talking about? Or are you talking about something else?

What do you mean by unified? Strix Halo is "unified". The M series platform isn't the only unified platform out there.

I think with stem separation,you could potentially train a model. But the latest Suno is really good. You can still kind of "hear" it. I had a song come into my playlist. "The Dad Bods Pop Punk". I have a keen ear,

There's another side of this. The teachers have gotten used to technology, too. They don't want to grade papers by hand anymore.

We started on Rails 3.2 and on Rails 8 now. Some upgrades were harder than others, but they never warranted anything close a rewrite.

Everything is slower across every single facet of computing. Something is happening. I have a brand new Mac Studio M4 Max with 64gb of ram and every site is still slower than it was on a 2011 Mac Book Pro.

This. Multiple desktops and full screen plain just doesn't work if you're used to getting around an OS with the keyboard.

Who is MacOS even for anymore though? It reminds me of the touchbar, removing ports and Macbook Pro. Know your audience. Professionals use MacOS, everyone could get by with a $200 Chromebook. Why cater to the wrong crowd.

It's happening. They've probably had iOS on Mac laptops for 5 years at this point. Similar to when they had been compiling MacOSX on Intel for 5 years before switching off PowerPC. The cursor on iOS on iPad is the nail in the c

It's obvious iOS will become the desktop OS in the next 5 years or so. I've been worried since Lion that MacOS will become iOS, but with the recent changes on iPad it's clear the opposite will happen. That's why I&#x27

They don't need Anthropic or OpenAI. Literally just go to ollama.com and throw a dart at a random model. That will be better than whatever they are doing now.
