Does sound like they may need a talk on storage management. I've had it with others before.

Getting conceptually closer to how the human brain works. Looking forward to more of this.

It's not really that different from talking with a coworker about something, whether if they were on the phone or in the passenger seat.

Let them cry, I don't see anything changing unless they can somehow get China to agree. And I doubt China will drink any of that kool aid especially while they're being disadvantaged by export controls, so the ever-improving open

Arguably this should've been a thing since day 1 (and probably would've helped to prevent the buyout), but better late than never.

And again, how is "AI or human" relevant to discussing? Given the potential of an indistinguishable discussion (which will eventually be the case). Although also eventually it's AI that will consistently provide the superior

The same could be said of commissioned paintings when photography became a thing. And yet here we are, and I doubt anyone - except maybe artists - would say the world is worse off.

We all been forced to help train Google's CAPTCHA for years for free, with no benefit. At least here you decide to opt-in or not, and it can potentially help you be more... discerning.

Doesn't really work for me. It's just a site likely checking what the browser tells it any the system. Meanwhile I have a VPN blocking most connections and every Google app is either uninstalled or disabled.

Flet (and that to-do example) has been out for years before this AI rage. And even of it came out early this year I and many other would still very much appreciate that basic example. If you want something more complex, vibe it.

I'd say sacrifices need to be made. If one wants apps with reasonably modern capabilities, then one has to invest in a device that can handle such capabilities. And those devices come with ample storage. Like I had the OnePlus One and

Yeah I'm curious about the difference between "nothing" and "0", but I just decided to roll with it. Until the Greek letters made my head start to spin as they usually do.

This sounds like my experience switching from conda to uv. The speed seriously blew my mind, and sometimes still does today. But then I think about the tradeoffs: I've encountered issues with uv-packaged Python because they've opt

You'd be surprised. But you're comparing a browser to an interpreter, so it's already apples and oranges.

Doesn't really apply to Android devices, which is the context here. You buy a phone and that's the storage/RAM you're stuck with until you get another phone.

It uses Flutter for UI and native services, but there's a full Python interpreter there. I think it does mostly canvas, but that could just be due to my selected option back when I tried web with it (couple years ago).

Native build size depends on what you want in the app, like the app I'm currently working on is almost 300MB, but I've added a few custom extensions to it (charts, iroh, and more). Earliest APK I can find is 140MB. In this day and
