Reading the linked articles suggests that this is not possible, but Apple did acknowledge that the full-disk access grants you access to other apps (until the most recent update)

Typical "leopards ate my face" moment. You give AI (from Meta, nonetheless) full-disk access and then complain that—wow—it really meant FULL.

In a perfect world where you got nothing to hide, where companies don't sell your data and there are no hackers, even I would love to just hand all my data to Muse and have it be my trusted assistant. People who think we live in such a world are already doing that, evidently.

The call actually does appear in the Recents list in red, with the time of call, it just doesn't say "missed" explicitly. This matches how the Phone app has looked for the past 20 years.

The "missed calls" list I mentioned would be more of a filter, which is indeed annoying but not fundamental.

I think you're paid to deliver. Lots of developers for decades have delivered crap that looks good on the surface and is otherwise unmaintainable. Now we're reaching the point where "everyone can code" and review queues are getting too long, with the result of many PRs being yoloed.

This of course varies by company but this is clearly where it's headed: bot pushes, bot reviews, you look at the PR title and click merge.

It's quite sad to see incompetence at these levels. This is a static page that loads JS. They even inject styles via JS...

I don't see what's confusing about the app, both on macOS an iOS. You get a preview of your face, the last contacts you called and a green "New call" button.

To me this is simple to the point of being excessively simple, especially with the "missed calls" being in a 16x16 click target dropdown.

It looks like they optimized for "calls from grandma" mode.

Outside France people don't live in big clusters. Take a look at the night satellite view. All those small/continuous towns do not have (functional) public transport. In my 12k-people town we don't have buses other than school buses and long-distance ones. And unfortunately people don't really walk other than for leisure.

As far as I know the closest city with public transport counts 100k residents, but there are 60 smaller towns in my province alone.

Sorry where's the rubble? The OS is pretty thin feature-wise. It's not like certain other OS that literally ship with ads and third-party games.

Call me a paranoid but I'm afraid of the harness itself, not the apps it generates. You can see lots of people being concerned with Deepseek Harness being Chinese, but I share the same sentiment towards all AI-based software that can run unsandboxed on my computer.

Unfortunately the iPad is still not seen as a first-class OS so there's no Claude Code nor VS Code on it.

Good example because all that code is indeed run sandboxed, which is exactly what we need in native apps as well. "Any website" cannot access anything on my computer without explicit and often temporary permission.

That's a reasonable concern and I do hope that there's an escape hatch, but it can't be as easy as "click here for full remote control" or else most people would just do that and fall victim. This already happens regularly and it's what privileged dialogs aim to prevent.

I love how the website shows examples and comparisons with the codes it claims to be better than.

Any day now

This isn't 1980 anymore. The internet is super hostile and everyone wants to extract data. You're still free to allow every app on your computer full access, I won't. I am very glad that none of the hundreds of apps installed across my phone and Mac can access my photos and cameras without permission.

Please do. Too many applications have too much access. Why do people not realize they installed literal Trojan horses that visit websites and execute commands found on them (prompt injection)?

What we need is true application isolation even in the command line. Treat Terminal as privileged access, not something any app can just command. Sandbox non-app store apps as well.

You're just forgetting.

1-2 basically a different templating language

2-3 basically a different templating language

4-5 compatible but changed again

That's 3 syntax changes over 4 versions.

I think they're just really old and not supported by anyone.

Time to ask the agent to spit out compiled wasm then if it doesn't matter.

Svelte changed things up at every single version so that's what you get. I've been a fan/hater since v1. For me Claude still tried to write "export let" for props even if I specify Svelte 5 at times.

Ludicrous. Bug reports by the average user are worthless and generally a net negative if you consider incorrect and duplicate reports.

Paying user for bug reports would just incentivize very prolific spammers (you know who) to fuzz your entire OS and automate sending thousands of reports a day.

The reason why that happens is not really Europe's fault. Any remotely-competent developer just works for US companies, why would they not? Especially for AI, there just isn't enough investments in the EU to offer those salaries.

What's left are incompetent developers paired with people who get government contracts and leech off them. Ask me how I know.

Hello fellow copy-paster. I hit them regularly when asking for medium refactors with higher effort. I have ChatGPT in another tab for when that happens, but to me it's awful for anything non-trivial. Gemini I don't even consider unless I'm just asking "what would Gemini do"

Maybe, but the slop will still be painfully visible and avoided. I don't need to be told it's AI when I see a perfectly-formatted and overly-detailed comment — I already know.

Sadly for me you are the minority. A lot of businesses will try their best to squeeze their customers, see also the very popular shrinkflation.

I am in an homogeneous country where taxes are the same everywhere and tips are not expected, but more and more businesses are printing their menus with +tax+service attached, suddenly hiding that their prices are actually 20% higher than listed. Completely unnecessary and sometimes fraudulent (oops forgot to mention it on the menu)

I think generation helps with content and structure that GitHub Markdown does not support, as well as having a dedicated (and brandable) website.

An example:

- source: https://github.com/eslint/eslint/blob/main/docs/src/rules/no...

- rendered: https://eslint.org/docs/latest/rules/no-control-regex

This is a very simple example, you can see how the code blocks are highlighted better and slightly interactive.

What footguns? I disable most git hooks so your solution still has ways to shoot your feet.

It's really quite unfortunate that the promise was not delivered, mostly for political reasons. I hope that a new wave of reactors and the dire need for clean energy restarts the nuclear race.

I don't have any hope for broad legislation that affects all businesses. Americans are so used to + tax + tips + convenience fees that doing anything else would hurt at both ends: consumers will claim inflation (oh that 8.99+30% burger is now 11.50? Tragedy) and businesses will mourn the loss of scam tactics that lets them earn more.

I've honestly been dreaming of a markdown web for decades and we're finally close.
