So this is a ghost kitchen. Link if anyone is interested in this business model. I don’t consider virtual kitchen as good of as a term since people are not virtually working there but have a time share rental of the space like renting compu

I use the bridge from cline to copilot with gpt4o and lately gtp5 to do code conversions from objective c without arc to swift for iOS only and it’s been basically the cheapest way I could find to do it without doing it manually. Anything l

They had a really good blog with the intricacies for objc, but when swift came out in 2014/5. It all stopped. It’s good to hear that they moved on to to other things, though.

The best people have the best options which may be leaving the company only a few weeks to months when their ‘dream offer’ comes in. In addition most work doesn’t need the ‘best people’ but consistent and dedicated people. I think this was

Intel made some really good low power gpus with good driver support. How are their gpus coming along for LLM support of local first?

Not really. There was a way of slab typed smart phones with capacitance touch screen windows mobile devices and they were more capable than the iPhone with on board GPS, etc. but they didn’t have an integrated App Store, which was the key t

The iPhone wasn’t as innovative as the AppStore which didn’t come around until iPhone OS 2. Selling software like music changed everything

It didn’t last past 2001 (lasted from 1996ish to 2001) and much of the money was stock and not real money so the paper millionaires never had the money since it never vested by the time they were hired until the time the dot com company wen

The phone can already copy your voice based on only a few hundred words, right? The next step is to have it remotely apply, work, and attend meetings for me. The invisible touch of the market if you will

Was there ever a version of this that would run a full blown DOS?

It was really fun watching the MOO and MUD and MUSH as the beginnings of the online, real time classroom and forums before the internet services and web servers really took off. All that was needed was Telnet which came with just about ever

You’d think with all this AI tooling they'd be able to organize better, but I think that the AI Age will be a very messy one with messaging and content

I seem to recall that early versions of Linux wouldn’t run on a cheap 386sx until the kernel started to incorporate embedded applications from widespread use in the late 90s. Also I remember the minimum ram was 4 meg but could go down to 2

The Usenet was considered a better place to store data about a topic for a year than a website because the interactive format allowed other people to comment. There was only cgi guestbooks which pale in comparison to a newsreader. People di

It would seem to logically follow that a Disk Operating System would have a directory list utility for disks like ‘dir’. It was there in the first version called 86 DOS. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/86-DOS

There are already several books about Surveillance capital. It’s not just VC money but public money, too. People pay taxes to get monitored by the government then go to work at a job where further monitoring takes place. Maybe one day house

I’m ok with owning a Mac if it only means that AI tools don’t have root access to the machine.

No one bought MP3s from Apple through iTunes. Audio was in their native format. Apple even had a page about importing MP3s into iTunes, so not exactly a walled garden there even for iPod. And the iPhone could play MP3’s in the native music

If the foreign candidates were so much superior than locally born candidates as you explained, why not just open a campus in that country and thus save the best employees from having to uproot from their native culture?

I go back and forth between ChatGPT and copilot in vs code. It really makes the grammar guessing much easier in objc. It’s not as good on libraries and none existent on 3rd party libraries, but that isn’t maybe because I challenge it enough
