The trouble with long-term contracts is that they have an end date. Looking at my 5 year fixed mortgage which will end in just over a year, and it isn’t going to be pretty. Apple doesn’t get a pass just because their contracts are many of o

Funny, because my LG TV had Google Assistant (whatever that is) when I bought it, but it was removed. It was never in your face though, just a button on the remote. It still has Alexa (it has both) but I never use it. I barely use the Echo

To be "AI native" (a la digital native) you have to have grown up with the technology. I'm not sure exactly which children they're planning to replace all their staff with, nor how they plan to get around the child labou

According to the article E0 was static, E3 was dynamic. What none of them did, however, was “learn” (as the title suggests). They used hardcoded algorithms.

LLMs use the em-dash excessively but correctly. This post is littered with them in places they don't belong which makes it look decidedly human, as if written by someone who believes that random em-dashes make their writing look more p

Going even further off topic, one of the things I love with Apple is having all your subscriptions in one place, and being able to cancel them easily. The few zombie subscriptions I've had have all existed outside of the App store, one
