There's a lot of misdirected complaining here, so some reminders: - Apple has this event because it generates buzz, which increases sales. - You do not need to watch the event. - You do not need to pay attention to anything about the e

Looking at your comment history, you could do with practicing a little agency and sense of responsibility in your life, instead of complaining about seemingly everything.

I didn't have my phone physically on me at the time. They did not have paper menus at all. They kind of rattled off a selection of items from memory. I ordered something.

Anecdotal, but I've encountered a number of places where it's more or less required. - Restaurants: Menu is QR only. In one case, ordering food was QR only. - Queueing up at my local Costco optical department requires scanning a Q

I recently vibe coded a basic app in both SwiftUI and Flutter, and the Flutter version seemed much faster. What the heck. (I am basically familiar with both environments and the code seemed pretty good, not slop.)

On macOS and iOS, I prefer native apps because Apple gives these apps a bunch of extras in terms of keyboard shortcuts and functionality. Non-native apps that are web views don't get this functionality unless the developer properly hoo

For those saying it’s to protect you from Google’s surveillance, I’ll say a couple things: 1. It redacts emails even to my personal domain. 2. Multiple Amazon reps have told me this is a common customer complaint and there’s no way to opt o

I don't. Ubuntu forcing snap and other non-standard junk on server was the last straw. I've moved to Debian for servers and Fedora (usually KDE) and Omarchy for desktops. Fedora seems much higher quality than Ubuntu these days and

Similarweb shows a consistent ~15% YoY decline. It also shows growth beginning in early Summer, so this trend may be changing as of very recently. Sensor Tower shows a consistent ~10% YoY decline. DataReportal/Kepios shows a ~5.3% decl

You can do both. I still find time to read a couple books a month. You have agency and can choose your own adventures. If you don't like something, don't do it.

This is unbelievably cool. And you look like a skilled go-getter to the corporate hiring machine.

I guess I'm in the minority. I don't mind an AI response if it's informative, concise and well-crafted. The problem is that those kinds of responses are rare in the tech world. But when you have someone competent at the helm,
