The Apple Intelligence Shortcuts creation is great as well. I never had a desire to learn their visual programming language so I mostly ignored Shortcuts. Now it's one-shot some really handy utilities for me.

Not the Gmail app, but a Gmail account, yes. You have to at least have the default Mail app installed and signed in for it to be able to index the emails.

I'll say they definitely need to let people disable/offload the model, but if you haven't tried the new Siri, it's been great. Obviously it's not a state of the art LLM, but it's good enough, and the fact that

English still feels hard to explain when things sound natural and when they don't. You can say "there are some vendors in the street" and it sounds normal. But if you were to say "they are some vendors" it sounds we

A funny quirk of English I never noticed until I started learning Spanish: In Spanish, to say for example, "he is a doctor," you would say "él es médico." Which more literally translates to "he is doctor," whic

I've barely looked into this but I don't understand the water usage thing. Are people under the impression that water is a one-time consumable like a video game, where you "use" it and then it's gone forever? I&#x27

I tried "what is 7 plus 13 to the power of 25" and it correctly returned the answer (confirmed with a calculator) It seemed to know how to parse the equation and pass it to its calculator tool, as it shows the formatted equation a

I'm sure submissions have absolutely skyrocketed with model advancements since the beginning of the year. I'd be curious to see the numbers. I know Github's commit numbers have been pretty staggering YoY.

Isn't that just called listening to feedback? I think a bunch of the reversions to the accumulated bullshit of the past number of years happening directly following the sudden departure of Alan Dye and his cronies is not a coincidence.

It's not year+1, it's the year that most overlaps with that OS being the latest. 27 will be the latest OS for ~9 months of 2027 and only ~3 of 2026. I also don't know why this would be considered more confusing for chronology

I've been using it since the second dev beta and it's been working great. If you're seeing that most people are happy with it then it sounds like you're in the minority.

My favorite part of macOS 27 is they finally made corner rounding consistent across windows. It had been getting worse for years until last year when Tahoe bizarrely added a bunch of SUPER rounded windows in native system apps. Which I figu

Fortunately and unfortunately, a lot of those games in that deluge are legitimately quite good but no one will play them because 99% of gamers aren't looking for more games to play. Just the ones they hear about by worth of mouth, or r

That also makes it a more difficult to make it a career than ever. There's simply too many games releasing. Steam is absolutely FLOODED with new games releasing, and it's very hard to stand out. https://steamdb.info&#x2

"Better than the sequels" is not saying much. I think Episode 7 is a more competent film than any of the prequels. Though these days I don't want to watch it cause I know it's setting up a story that goes nowhere.

They brought a Pro feature to the base model and dropped the price. I don't want Pros because I prefer hard plastic tips. They're not doing anything deceptive or clever. Cheaper than last gen too.

Grok is my go-to LLM for research not because I care for Elon Musk but because it's really good. I'm not even sure if I'm paying for it? I have an X Premium account but I don't know if that's giving me more Grok usa

Tailwind is more relevant than ever in web development, it's practically the native language for UIs in the LLM world. I don't see why they'd put Tailwind into maintenance mode when they just purchased a pretty major building
