Zitron’s narrative around AI revenues is that somehow the people Anthropic/OpenAI etc are pitching to, people who meet the sophisticated or wholesale investor tests (i.e., the only people actually able to trade on this information) do

I recently had (and then lost/left on a plane!) a Lumenate Nova[1] and found it was very helpful at quickly getting me away from the mind going state. I work very late to overlap with distant timezones and would often find it difficult

Any particular recommendations? I’ve been meaning to queue some up to have in the background playing when the kids are around hoping to stumble across something that that might pique their interests

Yeah. I've offset that by then long-pressing on any particularly sensitive apps I don't want to risk other people potentially being able to control via Siri and turning on "Require FaceID" just for those apps. Which then

yeah :( I'm definitely not in the pro "kids need to be protected from the internet/social media/whatever" camp as I'd much rather teach my kids to make smart decisions and manage it ourselves vs the government

So I've been working heavily on redesigning the CLI for where I currently work. I took the approach of building it from the ground up to be agent-first, primarily because we already had a good sense on what was missing for the human se

I've been thinking about doing more of this too. What spec machine are you running? And are you using long-running autonomous agents or more of the IDE/co-pilot style of collaboration?

My 12yo son is already significantly taller than me! We had to use his passport to prove he’s much younger than these systems report because they were locking him out from chatting to his friends (said the age gap was too big)

I think your example if proving their point: that's exactly what happens and is incredibly common.

Yeah, I had to go check this too. Not that I ever played either game, but I definitely recall Roblox being the knock-off version of Minecraft. It's wild checking the wikipedia entry for both and realising how much later Minecraft came

I can’t remember who they were talking about now, but I was listening to a podcast recently that had Questlove (drummer from The Roots) and he was retelling about the first time he met someone. As part of the intro he said something like “o

Which was a policy that increased their market dominance for their existing dominate products. What exactly are they extinguishing GitHub to the benefit of? Azure Repos?

Because it is made up fluff for this audience. There is a wall of data and evidence + anecdotes from many people pointing to the exact problem here and giving concrete examples of how this absolutely does cost more. And an admittedly unchar

super charger rate is typically 6x for me. What's the cost multiple difference when my rate is negative (i.e., I'm being paid to help load shed from the grid)? Anyway this wasn't meant to be a debate about rates. Just that &

Just got home from visiting family a couple of hours away in the highlands here. Battery is now at 40%, it'll take almost 2 days of charging at home to get it back to 100%. Hopefully I don't have another significant open highway d

Please share the other places this has been "solved". I'm a daily user of Wispr Flow, in part because all previous attempts to try and reimplement it myself have been terrible. Tortoise and all of the other suggestions people

Did you you have previous game making experience? I've toyed with the idea of trying to make it a small project for me and my kids but I thought it might be a bit beyond them (and then ultimately become just my project)

They had lightning in a bottle because they had an amazing developer experience… and gave everyone free compute and data transfer. So much of the value was already delivered in that simple `git push heroku master` which gave you a container

Absolutely none of this is true. What was the PaaS Heroku was apparently beating at the time of the acquisition?
