Steve Jobs returning to Apple meant layoffs, but it was a month later. After analysis and planning. He didn't do it on the same day, while carrying a sink into the office. Elon is a showman. Constantly overpromising on things that don

Remix is wonderful. Combined with CloudFront, you can save a lot of money compared to Vercel when you become moderately successful. (yes, you'd need to be comfortable rolling your own to some degree, for some things, but honestly the v

Would NextJS's Apple-style marketing pitch at their events be more convincing to you?

He's got a dedicated audience reading millions of his books. Quite a lot of his twitter presence is reactions to the decline in America and America's politics. Musk would probably prefer King's voice quietened.

Totally right. And Musk's answer was to offer $8/m King wasn't talking about paying anything

You know that linking to this is effectively handing someone a VHS with the Ring curse, right?

Google glasses should be the warning here. They never found a reason for it to exists. Metaverse has reasons, sure. Sure you can meet with people. Sure you can play games. Sure the headsets are functional unlike glasses. But to what exten

I love the design of this, btw I'd say "retro", but it's more than that. It's like a homely functional design that has worked for decades in older sites.

Hey I like this, but I wasn't quite sure of a use case from the homepage. Is it something I download? Something I embed?

Maybe try Firefox? Brave is known to be laden with "interesting" extras.

Safari getting web push notifications in 2023 If a user could "save" a webpage to an app icon on their desktop, and get badges for new messages, then that could herald in a new wave. And seriously. I think there is money to be ma

Agreed. The number of IT projects I've seen delivered on time, yet sloppy and with very little re-usability. Immediate cost savings are celebrated, while long term damage and expense is hidden while senior execs quietly move on.

I thought the register article was way more pragmatic than that. They agree with the praise the CCP gives itself, but just add a dash of reality.

There's a whole world of paying jobs out there where near enough is good enough. Where the client just wants to come up with something , and is happy to go in a direction that balances speed and cheapness. There are millions of these

I like this reply. Not a user of either system currently, but have done projects on both. The use-case for fly.io is strong, but everyone needs to focus on where they want to spend their time vs pay off.

So is there a secure/hard restriction where only apps by the same author can share data?

I guess these apps report back to Facebook your device ID? So no direct comms between apps?

Exactly. It's opportunism. And if you're the richest man in the world, why is it so important to scalp people close to you. Weird!!!

Yeah sounds like it could be cause and effect. Even if they were on a break, it's cheap opportunism on Musk's part, assuming he ever cared for his friend.

But they were discussing a particular part, no?

Ah yes. There is no sun in winter.

Oh yeah of course unnecessary not sure why I was down voted. My point is the 100mb is very quick to download. App files are also cached around the globe and take time to download.

by slimebot80 4y ago
This is amazingly fast. If I needed to download an app file, 100mb would take minutes. (not defending a 100mb homepage, but still)
