Maybe they're trying to go for the "Windows anywhere" approach. So everything will be windows? Eg. But I have a mac! Just open windows and you're good to go.

I don't think conventional minded people think there can't be things that you can't say that are true. I think they believe that you'd be aware of the things that would get you in trouble, and that those things were alre

You're likely already on 10 databases for this comment, and dragging me along with you. But maybe the FBI will be thankful bc you just allowed them to legally spy on Hilary.

One thing that is important to note is that to many this seems like an overnight success, but this guy has been cooking ChatGPT since 2017? I don't think at many points this seemed like it'd be this successful. It looked just like

That's my point. Capital rich startups are not the subject of this comment. The reason Placemark is failing is not because it could not get one FAANG contract, it's because many small startups/smbs/single person business

US VC backed startup colored glasses: multiyear SaaS contracts. Some people are bootstrapping. And I thought the appeal of SaaS is pay for what you use, and pay as you grow? So now the selling point is buy in bulk?

I'm one of the users that is averse to paying even a $10 subscription. The reason is it would be one of the 10-20 subscriptions that are all supposed to be really useful and worth it. For a small startup, this adds up, especially the $

I don't think I've used it in ages. Maybe part of maturing as a developer, most answers I started to find there were expected and not covering the problems I faced, so usually original docs are the only reliable source, and maybe

I think eventually a solid antitrust case will bring them back to earth, but I'm very glad I jumped off windows over a decade ago so I get to skip all the nonsense in between.

Browsers could simply make QWACs distinguishable from all other certs. Make sure to show qwac next to the lock. Will the EU say hide the qwac?

How about replaceable and rechargeable batteries that can charge in their vehicles? They can keep their phones charged, cameras should not be an issue.

I can, but I don't abuse it. I only took it once as I was truly exhausted and really needed to decompress. My advice is make sure your performance is stellar and also make sure to leave your team in a good position to perform without y

I'm less comfortable with buttons on steering wheel. I'm left handed and I drive with that hand, leaving my right hand free to change gears or handle controls, which I do by feel, by knowing where each one is. Knobs that you can t

Take the time to build an alternative to something that exists today but is not incentivized to rent seek. Like a social network, an open source EHR system, or just find an open source project and improve its UX so it can compete with comme

That is fine. They will pay him for it and he can alter use that new wealth to build something else.

Why don’t they adopt a model like Spotify, when’re they track what information they’re scraping and how much if it relative to all the information they collect (bc I don’t think they can track how it’s being used by the model), and compensa

They’re low volume because they’re unreasonably expensive, not the other way around.

Seems like you’re putting a lot of effort in stretching the definition of pro to defend Apple. I have a personal 16GB mbp, they both struggle. Still don’t see your point.

Create a blacklist of websites built into browsers for one. Would defeat VPNs and other techniques for the average users.

My employer provided 8GB mbp has a hard time running some nodejs container workloads. The build step is particularly resource intensive to the point it slows down the whole system. So if you're developing with auto reload enabled, you&

With ideas like this, it may often be just as dangerous to publish them in the first place. Governments are now aware of it (including Apple's CSAM tech). How long until they start mandating this from browser/phone makers?

It's one of those things where you need govt funded ev charging infrastructure. Once people are at ease about always being able to charge, this might improve.

Does that include opting out of all tracking?

Then you can buy a MacBook or MacBook Air. The pro line is meant for people doing more than browsing and zoom calls. The probability that a person buying a n 8Gb pro will find it limited is very high. I can’t see how Apple would be in the r

Also, that LLMs can now choose to lie to us and given enough time, we could no longer have a way to determine truth. And this could happen very quickly.

That is also true, but the subset of companies that can be, does not include non tech companies. I mean, there are non tech companies that are worth a lot, lien coca-cola, or oil companies, or Walmart, but you can see what and how long it t
