Great exit in a crowded space.

I switched to Paseo long ago because of its full featured mobile app, local client server architecture, and open sourcedness. Conductor began to feel stale, pricey, and understandably but annoying for me moving toward enterprise.

It precisely matches your prompt, more accurately I think than your expectation which it meets if described accurately:

All the more remarkable given we all have research tools that can answer such questions immediately.

I’ve never had to replace an iPhone battery and I’ve probably owned 20 phones and used and passed on my old ones.

Can you suggest anything? I really don’t understand the demand.

To me making steady progress on well designed core products is very useful.

Personally I’d love better multitasking on my phone which is why the duo is attractive.

I agree on watch battery life that sucks.

Not sure why hardware design changes are a good thing on their own. The Apple Watch is well designed I’m not sure what I would improve except battery life and maybe taking the sharp edges off the Ultra.

The demand for change on its own is an odd one for me and not very Apple.

I’m not going to upgrade to get this, however given most devices are touch screen it has become almost expected. Sometimes you just want to move something with your fingers even if it’s not the main input method.

Personally I find I miss touch screen after using my iPad and Magic Keyboard for extended periods and then switching back to the laptop. I mostly use the keyboard but it’s very nice to be able to scroll, position things, etc

He also thought people didn’t want big phones and tablets.

What do you want them to come out with instead?

These are the devices people use all day every day. Iterating on them makes sense.

They are also working on AirPods with vision, released a home hub with display, released AR goggles, releasing GPU heavy servers, creating a framework for AI interfaces, …

Are you hoping for a replicator or transporter?

The Duo does have a killer use case at least for me: multitasking

Game + Video

Messaging + Browsing

App + Development

Notes + Research

etc

I assume you mean unsubstantiated.

The numbers are out there for all. Dropping token prices. Rising borrowing rates. Absurd contractual commitments. Commoditizing technology.

It’s ok to enjoy knitting too.

They are building it to solve their own problems, probably in many specific ways that make it less generalizable.

Making a complex system like this available for general use cases, especially when it's still under active feature development, is hard. It also commits you to providing documentation, upgrade paths, incorporating changes that aren't useful to you and may also cause problems for you, and just generally complicating development and maintenance immensely to the point of drastically slowing development.

My guess is when it's stable or they start building their next version control system, they will start opening it up.

I know especially in this day and age when developing from scratch is so easy, I write most software for myself first and it's way faster to develop than trying to build shared bits. That isn't great for the future of software, however the tragedy of the commons isn't anyone's problem, by definition.

That's a great idea. I may just try it.

Sneaky and a little icky, but novel enough to pass.

Something tells me it's not just coffee machines that do this, it's lots of appliances that have useful online capabilities.

My LG washer/dryer tell me when loads are done and when someone lets wet clothes sit in the washer. This is priceless. But yeah they are probably profiling my house.

I guess I never want to do business in France. What an abominable court system.

Why are you commenting?

Some day maybe excel will be a proper database. Anyway, who uses Excel?

The real question is if Google Sheets will get these features.

My favorite chess quote:

"The ability to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. The ability to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life."

I find this to be very valid.

"Only teaches two useful lessons" seems a little certain.

Off the top of my head I can think of a number - the value of diversity and the contextual power of capabilities such as the power of weaker pieces used diligently, and the power of counterintuitive sacrifices.

Chess also makes no accommodation for your fantasies and ego. There is no luck, only skill.

There is also much to be garnered from the layered complexity of strategy, where some strategies will take you to a certain level of play that need to be completely replaced or expanded with nuance to reach a higher level.

There are many lessons to be learned from chess.

That said, I would not recommend anyone become good at chess to get good at life.

Stockfish has created entirely new lines in chess which people incorporate into their play. For instance an early pawn push to h4 is now common among chess pros. It's value was not recognized before Stockfish.

Apparently uBO can't be ported to MV3, as dynamic request interception is no longer allowed, only fixed block lists.

"For security and privacy"

I guess everything is ok these days as long as the President says "We screwed up [our most basic responsibility to customers], and we own that."

But corners do look better in video games like that.

Interesting position, and also very opinionated.

For instance, personally I think having secondary masses dominate can make the structure look smaller and more intimate.

Like in this one, it looks like a bunch of cottages instead of a behemoth.

I live in a house with MANY "voids" aka windows. The house looks pretty stunning, and the views are spectacular.

Thanks for explaining. It's an interesting turn of phrase. I don't see how it relates to parallel construction.

Parallel construction would be if LE unlawfully intercepted transmissions using this technique and discovered a crime, then found other unrelated evidence to begin an investigation of that crime.

Indeed. Parallel construction is when law enforcement doesn't want to burn their source or their source is unlawful, so they find another way to justify a warrant or prosecution even tho their initial justification comes from a different source.

This has been upheld as lawful, but also can unfortunately be used to disguise unlawful behavior.

Reverse engineering is not related to parallel construction.

This is how markets balance. When there is under supply prices go up and incentivize production. When there is oversupply production goes down. Prices converge on a small premium to the price of production.
