The top menu is not necessarily for common functions. Nor is it true that no one uses it. Chrome’s unique buried menu breaks user expectations. Casual users have trouble finding it.

The author addresses this. Humans are the same in 2026 as 1992. Besides, that interface designers or even the average computer user understands more than in 1992 is highly implausible on its face.

This does seem to be what many are arguing, even if the analogy is far from perfect.

I hate to comment on just a headline—thought I did read the article—but it's wrong enough to warrant correcting. This is not what the Dunning-Kruger effect is. It's lacking metacognitive ability to understand one's own skill

They aren’t mutually exclusive. No reason you can’t use both and get the best of both worlds. Also, future IDEs will have prompts and interfaces to better manage the LLM.

For Claude Code, you pay $20 for pro, then npm -g install @anthropic-ai/claude-code. Then invoke claude on your terminal. It is a different thing, in a sense, because you can install command line tools that far surpass the Claude clien

The ethos of rap music isn’t like the others. It’s not about musicality. I don’t know who it appeals to, but like RMS, I find it repulsive.

The differences between Chrome and Firefox are too minimal to chalk up Chrome's market share to preference. From 2008-2010 maybe, but Chrome established such a lead in that time that its inertia (and Chromebooks) did the rest.

Yep. Real "metaverse" energy.

Giving power to the radicals that want division wouldn't have that effect, and it's bizarre to even suggest that it would.

Except nobody chooses M365 Copilot over ChatGPT or Claude, so clearly the usual reasons aren't working. In this case, improving the product via integration is a last resort.

I use a Shortcut for this because it cuts down on the unnecessary apps. Hammerspoon.app would work too though. tell application "System Settings" activate end tell delay 0.1 tell application "System Events"

There is a simple fix to disable auto dubbing. Go into your Google account settings, under General, then add any languages that you watch YouTube videos in. I did this for Spanish and all my Spanish videos stopped getting dubs and translate

Tailwind is semantic too because the class names say what they do.

You're mixing "is" and "ought." Why ought styles be interchangeable (remembering that stylesheets and DOM structures often have complex, dependent relationships that are rarely as simple as Pico or anything similar)

I appreciate strong opinions, but I appreciate good arguments even more. And there's just nothing here. You're raising a bunch of meyerweb talking points from 2003, except why? WHY does markup need to be "semantic" in th

I'm sure you think you're well intended, but your attempts at rigor have me scratching my head a little bit. I don't understand the defensiveness given that you haven't done the bare minimum to explain your position. And

When you reject the idea of reductionism, which Nagel's paper provokes us to do, then the entire idea of emergent phenomena collapses. Everything is on the same level, from fundamental particles to consciousness. Of course, some things

What's incoherent about it? Do you not think subjective experience has its own qualities? Breathing in fresh morning air, for example?

You're getting a little ahead of yourself. First, ontological assertions need to reflect reality. That is, they need to be true or false, and many philosophers, including prominent scientists, don't think they qualify. Indeed, the

The moniker was mostly invented by the press. But if we're talking about all four "horsemen," I think they all made positive contributions to their respective fields. Likewise, there are fair critiques one can level at each o

I'm less convinced with consciousness as some sort of exceptional phenomenon—and how it's been used to define the "hard problem"—but the paper is still valuable as it provides an accessible entry point into the many prob

Office 365 is a macOS and web-based application too. The implications of cloud-based document storage as the default is greater than just another bullet point in Windows' decline. This will affect anyone, anywhere Office 365 is used.
