Looking at the Mac App Store in the US, no they don't. There's not an LLM app in sight (local or otherwise).

There are millions of people who use Microsoft products as an end user who have no idea where or how their email or files are hosted. You don't have to understand the backend to use their tooling.

It's a little odd to complain about infrastructure (SPS, EX) then go discuss UX (Outlook) as some sort of example of said infra (?!?) and then go to discuss _cloud only features that never existed on-prem_ (M365 Groups). Before complai

Teaching is a skill like any other. While I don't think the two are anti-correlated, you're going to find good teachers and bad teachers, no matter how good they may be at their other duties. And I would gather you find more bad t

You're misreading those stats. The Census doesn't define "city", it defines "urban" vs. "rural". My "city" of 5K is considered "urban" according to the 2020 census. There are nearl
