I agree but you expect those from a consumer OS since at least Windows 95.

You would still be free to use the appstore, I'm sure if it's as great as Apple says, it will have no problem

Just download the app from the website and install it

Personnally I use Flutter which has a very minimal use of their SDK. Basically enough to render inputs to a gpu accelerated surface. And I'd argue that this is a core OS feature that you expect on any modern OS.

Every time you try to inform consumers how much Apple charges, Apple bans the app though. So even Apple thinks informing consumers on how the appstore works is a threat

Apps still need to go through Apple bureaucracy and they still take their cut. They are still free to ban any of those apps without any specific reason

Personally I don't, I would just downgrade the Apple permissions to match normal apps, I'm just pointing the doublespeak

You can't because the duopoly prevents you to do it, that's why it's called a duopoly.

I thought the appstore was safe because of its vetting, at least that's what they officially say

I have a different perspective because I would put all these points as a negative for React Native except hiring. React Native is actually Native so you feel all the pain of the yearly redesign by Apple and Google and the millions of differ

That's also not possible, what's the worst problems enabled by LLM? Political propaganda, influence of population at scale, misleading advertising, social media bots... None of that will be filtered by a "safety" filter

There's no way to make a model "safe", (whatever that means) since you can't know what users will do with the output. It's just PR. Closed models are also used for nefarious usage.

> War is the only thing that's left I think I would have agreed until the Iran war, the US used up so much of the missile stock that even the army isn't fully intact anymore

It's even worse than that, I sometimes get calls from phone prefixes which do not even exist in the world. They don't even check that the number can exist.

They all do that, when OpenAI reached a licensing deal with Reddit, it's to prevent less financially capable competitors to enter the market. (And I'm not saying that's right either)

If you doubt that you have gained something as high as 20% gains, it probably just means you got nothing. And also, individual productivity isn't the same as organisation productivity, especially at such a large company.

by realusername 2mo ago
These are enough gains that you don't need to believe, they should be measurable

Maintenance over time is 90% of the work anyways, you don't start a project from scratch every day

They had to put so much work to make it run on actual phones that each project is kind of it's own thing.

Well AOSP doesn't run on a single phone on earth (not even the emulator) so you also have to take into account the reality of what Android is on the ground. AOSP doesn't even include a functional keyboard nor a proper call manager

I'd say the OnePlus 6 is fully supported so it's one device at least (the stuff that isn't on it is minor). Mainlining is very hard though so the results are expected

Well no it isn't, this problem is so small that it's not even worth installing any additional cooling method. It's also the lowest consumption period of the year, making the problem even more irrelevant as some plants are alr

> Every single nuclear watt is being subsidised and has been for decades. You won't find any grid which isn't subsidized, remember Germany already spent ~2x the French grid and that didn't spend by itself.
