This is a complicated issue. On the one hand, I tend to have a generally unfavorable view of apple. I don't like closed systems, oversimplified to the point of missing critical settings UX, etc. That said, I really don't understan

Well, in that case I think I'd 1) Not dilute the horrific tragedy of a century in pursuit of my histrionic agenda 2) Try and not overfit the clean simple morality of young adult fiction onto the real world

I have a close friend who is constantly hustling but has little technical expertise, so he just says "yes" and hopes I'll swoop in and figure out execution. We built a lead qualification and sales coaching plug-in for a CRM,

I sure hope the hype cycle doesn't destroy what's truly valuable here. I accidentally stepped into seemingly endless demand for AI projects this year, and it has been a god-send for my crushing burnout. Truly interesting stuff tha

I'm fairly competent, I don't even really have a "support" issue, I just need them to stop billing me for a device that was damaged and replaced. You can't terminate unless the "device is online", and the

I’m not an AI zealot, but this is such a strange debate to me. “AI only _appears_ to be reasoning” is silly, because appearing to reason is our only sane definition of reasoning. If we can’t say exactly when our random statistical noise eme

I used to find my Alexa devices useful, until they took the widely-discussed quality nosedive and started understanding less than half of what they used to. I can't think of anything else I've purchased that became so markedly wor

I actually love bluetooth, because I think it's a miracle it functions at all across so many devices. In general, I can make sound happen on a thing, and that's cool. Having said that, this list is missing my biggest gripe: so man

I have considered the that, but I ultimately decided they work because they are a fabric of what that ecosystem _is_, not what it has. It's the same reason two sites that are more or less the same will have entirely different communiti

I do think that, and a lot of other people do as well. It’s why they aren’t taken seriously and have a hard time being employed unless we’re in wasteful high growth economic states. And identifying a profitable market segment, inserting you

Careful, it’s gatekeeping to prefer that your game journalists have ever played a game at all other than when researching for an article. They write like this because it’s how anyone writes on a topic about which they have no experience. If
