This is the wrong way to look at it from a business perspective. They don’t directly profit off licensing or support or anything like that, but they gain free advertising. They gain absolutely nothing by handing over the name and brand - in

GPU drivers are some of the most complex and frequently updated pieces of code in the industry. I blame the manufacturers for failing to deliver stable products, rather than putting all the blame on windows for delivering drivers to you tha

Uptake of iPhone 16+ devices will be much more than 25% by the time someone develops the next killer app using these tools, which will no doubt spur sales anyway.

It's trivial to normalise the various formats, and there were a few libraries and ML models to help parse PDFs. I was tinkering around with something like this for academic papers in Zotero, and the main issue I ran into was words spil

How does it handle contention, and how frequently does it sync?

I wouldn’t use gloves to do any of those things you’ve described. They would be a hindrance, and the risk just isn’t that bad.

Could it cool and crystallise? Could those crystals then erode and reform again as sedimentary rocks to be come a solid planets like earyh? I understand that’s not how earth itself came to be, but it’s an interesting metamorphosis that I h

They are not useless to me. I need to keep my fingers on the pulse of what happened yesterday and what’s happening today, and what potential impediments might arise to make key decisions without asking everyone.

Flonase (fluticasone) has been a life changer. I have taken for granted how valuable breathing is in terms of speech, let alone sleep and general fatigue.

I recall reading about some link between respiratory effectiveness and human development. No idea how valid that research might have been. In retrospect, it almost borders on phrenology.

Trivial to eliminate through window treatments and training to mitigate should-surfing risks. It’s probably more valuable as a surveillance and monitoring tool than an espionage one, but they would no doubt be the first customers (if not al

At first I thought there might be some merit to help understand how damaging this type of application could be to society as a whole, but the agents they have used appear to have crossed a line that hasn’t really been drawn or described pre

There’s a fine line between chores and games. Imagine having to move a round thing around some other people to get that thing into a square frame. Then, imagine that you can only use your feet!
