Curious to know if Bard regurgitates the Quake code that everyone was up in arms about over ChatGPT a few months ago

I learned a lot from this article. I don't think he is being critical, he is making very well reasoned arguments and is probably excited to get his hands on this device to see if they hold up.

I like that Apple are being so ambitious. They are literally the ONLY company that could possibly make this work as they make and control the stack from top to bottom. That said, it's still a very tough sell. I don't think having

Really curious to learn more about this. Have you had to scale back usage of certain appliances such as irons, air conditioners, washing machines etc?

People say this now in hindsight, but I very, very distinctly remember how people ridiculed any efforts at creating a third ecosystem. You had very influential tech sites literally memeing the likes of Windows Phone or Palm or Blackberry&#x

One of the cruel ironies of the human experience is that making children is almost as easy as breathing. Not everyone that can procreate, should. Stories of parental abuse enrage me to hyperventilation and I had a good childhood.

Aren't people keeping their PC's for far longer nowadays? In my experience they are far less brittle and far more capable than they used to be and we spend most of our time either running web browsers on them.

One thing I've noticed is that when I write nowadays, I very routinely leave out chunks of letters...almost as if my hand lags my brain. Pretty sure it has to do with the fact that we type much faster than we write

Somebody in that thread is speculating that the company in question is grammarly. I'm not sure but I'm now curious as to what the execs there are thinking, especially now with the recent Microsoft 365 news. Feels like the body blo

Somehow, Apple will have a moving video about their human centered values at their next product launch and there won't be a dry eye in the room. It's sickening how effective it is.

I was pleasantly surprised in the beginning of Musks reign, because a few weeks into it the World Cup came and went and Twitter didn't even flinch. But since then it's been quite the shit-show from a stability point of view. I&#x2
