I think I get it, but it doesn't help the image that there are some who are so obviously abusing the system. Everybody knows who they are. Everybody can see what they're doing, how they're using their position to avoid puttin

Great to hear agreement that all this article manages to show is how sensible the AI Act is. No, you can't be irresponsible with AI in Europe, we've learnt the hard way what happens when there's no regulation early on.

It's a product that I was willing to pay for (until I required native E2E encryption). _iCloud Drive_ is a feature, mostly — aside from the fact that you still have to pay for it to be useful, so kind of still a product. Steve Jobs was

I went in to hate-read, but ended up mostly agreeing. Mainly, I agree that the issue isn't ability being valued, but which abilities we choose to value. In a completely free market, abilities that get you the highest salary are what we

Cursor's AI is in my opinion superior. Copilot gets anything but the most basic things wrong or poor practice advice, and even basic things sometimes. Cursor's _interface_ on the other hand, is not great. I found it clunky and too

Depends if you work for a shit company or not. From the comments here, I think some have only _ever_ worked for shit companies. Other kinds of places do exist!

My prediction is that they will "continue" the product as a different product, maintaining the name. A bit like how the Macbook Air is still a product, whilst we all know it was discontinued some years ago.

If the vast majority aren’t interested, that’s a sign of success. Remember, it’s when they came that everything went to shit.

I trust science completely, it's all we have. I don't trust the people doing the science. In the same way that you can trust laws, but not most lawyers. Medicine, but not certain doctors. It's not the scientific method that&#

I called 100% BS on the last one (video games desensitise children to violence), "but this time it's different" ;) Moral panics are usually baseless, but this doesn't fit the usual mould. This is rather coming from the o

_You do not need LinkedIn!_ I can not put enough emphasis on this. So many people think you can't be a professional without a LinkedIn account, it's depressing. Word of mouth trumps everything. Build up your _real_ social and prof
