Serious question: how is assassination an official act? Asked another way, under what constitutional authority is the president charged with assassinating political leaders inside the United States? I'm not saying a president couldn&#x

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the product overall much more than ChatGPT. I do wish it had voice input that rivaled what OpenAI previewed. Excited for 3.5 Opus. For now I’ve canceled OpenAI subscription and removed the app in favor of Claude.

OpenAI has the model advantage. Google and Apple have the ecosystem advantage. Apple in particular has the deeper stack integration advantage. Both Apple and Google have a somewhat poor software innovation reputation. How does it all net ou

I will say Google certainly has the better branding team. I like Gemini, Gems, and so on. “ChatGPT” is quite a clunky mess. OpenAI just feels like a faceless entity. All things that could change but seems late in the game at this point. The

I agree iPadOS is not good enough, but when I hear people call for Apple to merge devices and troll them for maximizing profits, I have to roll my eyes. Okay, let's add background task processing, hungrier apps like Xcode, more simulta

What the heck is "Nasa"? Not the sword I'll prefer to fall on, but even if you're in the UK, let's honor that this organization is in the United States and they self-describe as "NASA."

It’s a metaphor for squeezing all the great things into a thin device. It’s unreal, the reaction to this.

Maybe this is a "guns don't kill people, people kill people argument" — but the safety risk is not, I would argue, in the model's response. The safety risk is the user taking that information and acting upon it.

I think the results are mixed and the lessons aren’t clear to me. Perhaps earmarks were the result of an electorate that wanted more purity in decision-making (at the cost of stability). In other words, earmarks didn’t break cooperation. Co

If I were within your proximity, I can assure you I have no interest in your minigame progress while you chopped cucumbers. I would however hope that you had avoided physical injury.

Is this really a business model issue? I understood that NPR’s funding primarily comes from corporate sponsors, not listeners or the government. If that’s true, there is less incentive to preserve local affiliates. Consolidation is inevitab

Any claim they make can be validated through discovery. I doubt they would lie, and I’m sure they’d love to increase Watch revenue by addressing the other half of the duopoly.

It's an interesting perspective, but as I understand this case, the case is not interested in a developer's bargaining power against their distributor. The case is interested in the impact on consumers (fewer choices, higher price

Reviewing 30,000 documents seems like a great use case of Gemini's new 1M token context window.

A great laptop but also a bit of a heartbreaker for me. The quality of the 16" MacBook Pro (Liquid Retina XDR?) is way ahead of the MacBook Air... which is a shame, because my dream form factor is the 15" MacBook Air. The 16"

So, you didn’t feel comfortable relying on “another SaaS” app, and then go on to suggest Retool Workflows, which is itself part of another paid SaaS app? All those “shoddy” alternatives also have free tiers.

"We grew frustrated with X." And yet every one of these AI features is coming to Linear, Asana, Jira, etc. So what would justify the switching cost?

Another thing that fascinates me about the Vision Pro: its looks. It’s at once futuristic - 3D knits, curved glass encased by aluminum - and yet also reminds me of something out of the 80s. Actually, it looks to me like a Mac. Aspects like

Every investor I know or talk to is a very, very, very regular user of OpenAI's products - probably to a fault.

It's not a perfect product by any means. The question is, has Apple backed itself into any corners? Can the battery life or field of view be improved? The resolution? The weight? I think in all cases, Apple has a technical path forward

I’m sure they had a discussion that size-based identifiers might imply models are primarily differentiated on the amount of knowledge they have. From that standpoint I don’t agree S/M/L would have been better.

PWAs will never be as good as native, definitionally. There is always API drift. There is always runtime cost. Nothing inside a system can ever have parity with its parent container. If it could, it would be the system itself. People's
