I have upgraded my M4 Pro 24GB to M5 Pro 48GB yesterday. The same Gemma 4 MoE model (4bit, don't remember which version) runs about 8x faster on M5 Pro and loads 2x times faster in memory. So yes, do purchase that new MacBook Pro.

I am running Macs for over 20 years now and I wonder: why do we need Dock at all? I have hidden it over a decade ago and never ever used it. If anything, it gets in the way when I push the cursor to the edge of the screen. (I exclusively us

Yes I perfectly understand the reasoning and technically it is sound. It becomes insane once you start thinking of real life implications, specifically supply chain attacks. Although it's only marginally more insane than the other ecos

There are different kinds of hated products. Some are hated because they have bugs. Some are hated because nobody wants to use them at all. And some products are entirely a net negative for the world.

Paying customer since inception here. I presume the local ChatGPT.app has even more measures to prevent automation, right? Presumably privacy-invasive ones as it is customary these days? Is there a way I can opt out? I really, really, reall
