Everyone's been talking about how ChatGPT will disrupt search, but looking at the launch partners, I think this has the potential to completely subvert the OS / App Store layer. On some level, how much do I need an OpenTable app i

There are ton of internet use cases that don't need low latency, though, especially if you have super high-bandwidth with lasers[1] (sorry for shit citation, just went with the first thing I found). First one that comes to mind is stre

MIT licensed code doesn't mandate distribution. Companies and organizations are perfectly within their rights to own a private fork of an MIT-licensed codebase in perpetuity. With that in mind, if you fork an organizationally-managed r

Thanks for sharing all these! I'm in total agreement with you that there's an insane amount of cool stuff and innovation happening in the OEM laptop/tablet/hybrid space. But I'm still really concerned about the cons

The Twitter OP elaborates further down the thread that they're seeing real-world impact on Lightroom. That would be a bummer for me...but I'd probably buy a build with a larger drive. Waiting for confirmation that this is only on

I'm unfamiliar with the term "jargon". Would you mind not gatekeeping this knowledge? /s At some point, people have to assume a certain level of knowledge. And as you implied with your article, there's nothing stops

I'm so rapidly becoming someone who just feels no guilt. It's balance against the abject anxiety I feel no matter what day or time of day it is. The balance against waking up on in a panic that's it's 9:30a and I missed

I don't know if I got in me to write out a ton here--I probably owe this sort of thing a blog post or write up at some point--but I'll just say that marketing _really_ likes terms like "unlimited", sales loves to sell co

I agree with the central thesis of the article (I didn't watch the video...), that PLG is basically inevitable for developer tools, particularly given the way that devs push for adoption of tools that they personally like from within a

Good data for VM folks, but I really have accepted at this point that the VM experience is almost completely distinct from the bare metal experience. I'm really looking for a dependable pseudo-desktop/server OS for the monolithic

FYI, the framerate on your homepage is _really_ bad in 4K on my W11 box. I couldn't understand why it wasn't being mentioned in the comments, but then I dragged it over to my 1440p, and it was way better. Not sure what's goin

I totally empathize. I waffled on Tailscale for a long time, and was convinced I'd roll my own for everything. But goddamn if that spiffy web interface is not just the bees knees. I relented and put in a Google account that I don'

Crushed it, you're spot on. I've found the lesser of two evils to be that Product integrate as closely as possible with engineering, which means using either Jira or GitHub issues for high"er" level deliverables. You hav

I'm aware, but it's just one more thing to carry, keep track of, break, lose, etc. Except in the case of USB-C headphones, but I like to be able to use my headphones with _any_ device, and not just a USB-C device. Plus, it turns o

Having worked with Windows on ARM in the past, I _hope_ you're right. But my experience has been that a ton of code is still going through the x86 emulation layer, which IMO is woefully lacking in performance, particularly compared to

Did you happen to write down what you tweaked? I use an MBP M1 with an external 4K, and I've had a sneaking suspicion that my keyboard inputs are somewhat delayed. Just hasn't ever felt quite right....

I went with Docker Swarm on the same advice from someone else, and tbh, it's unnecessary overhead as well. And at least on RPis, it's very fragile and not as self-healing as I'd hope it to be. My stacks are well compartmental
