Looks very neat. Have you considered offering it through the App Store? I would pay a modestly higher price for that. Or for open source. But the combination of closed source and not being on the App Store is a bit of a dealbreaker for me.

While I completely agree with your premise, the software can be improved. It can be programmed to drop down to 5 miles an hour or less depending on street size, pedestrian proximity, school zone, etc. If only the same could be said for the

Are you trying to say that the AirTag is so strictly utilitarian, that they couldn’t have found a spot for a lanyard hole? I disagree, they could have, they didn’t want to. Beyond the look, this sure panders to their accessory partners. How

I’d rather they spent the money ensuring no trains ever left their tracks rather than halving the destruction if they do.

And also to reduce account sharing. How will a family share an account when they simultaneously make the adult account more “adult”, and make the kids account more annoying for adults. Lots of upsides for them.

I’m no expert, but I certainly wouldn’t call that racism. Bias, absolutely. And it’s important that we acknowledge our biases. But in a more literal sense, the chance of your joke landing was likely higher due to the things that you stated

Language is fluid. This is ok. There are many bad things about LLMs, but a benign shift in popular language usage isn't one of them.

But have you considered the shareholders? The line must go up. Cynicism aside, I wish there was a happy medium where companies could just _make money_ and not always have to make _even more money_.

Ahh, this was really cool. I’m not sure I understand the kernel much better, but init and the concept of an operating system make a lot more sense. I’d love a similarly styled part two that dives into making a slightly useful distro from “s

Imagine a lonely person desperate for conversation. A child feeling neglected by their parents. A spouse, unable to talk about their passions with their partner. The LLM can be that conversational partner. It will just as happily talk about

Yes, but nobody’s paying for it, and nobody’s getting rich off that. Or at least they could be getting more rich. Won’t someone think of the quarterly reports?
