It's already gone. Replaced once with Microsoft 365 and then rapidly and haphazardly by the Copilot name.

Only the domain and SEO artifacts remain.

The only mention of the word 'Office' on that page is

'The Microsoft Office app is now Microsoft 365 Copilot'

It is really sad to see MS kill such a behemoth brand for nothing.

The hypocrisy of the conservatives aside, the Democrats also end up doing nothing meaningful to thwart any of it when they are in power. The higher ranks of Democrats are almost as conservative as the Republicans. Palantir is not a post-2024 phenomenon. The data was always collected. They are just being brazen now.

"We've tried nothing and are out of ideas."

Sounds like Americans are in general fine with all of it. Voting patterns hold. General sentiment still remains aligned with the status quo. There does not seem like there are any consequences for the representatives to not represent the people.

What I understand from listening to the management from various podcasts, it was a mix of shipping the most minimum impactful features with the leanest product team needed and then jacking up the price every year for the people that can't move away from these products.

How would you know if you were supposed to be here or not without due process.

YOU would not even get a chance to prove your case when they deport you. And I use "you" here deliberately because everyone is at some point at the lowest rung of the ladder in a fascist regime.

"I demand a purple unicorn build the things I want to."

Now what?

Running into this issue with just 1 agent. I have plenty of tokens to spare. Just not enough time to iterate and bugfix.

For 99% of the SaaS teams, low latency becomes an issue later unless the product itself needs to be catering with that feature. Focus with kits like this is to get everything running on day 0.

Have heard good things about Garage (https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/).

Am forced to use MinIO for certain products now but will eventually move to better eventually. Garage is high on my list of alternatives.

It's more like

Home Depot sold you a shovel because you had $48 to spare. they don't care about the why.

Also happy to see European players doing it.

>You have to make sure you're not putting any secrets in the container environment.

How does this work exactly? containers still need env vars and access to databases and cloud environments. Without these the container is just useless isolated pod.

>You are not Google.

It's literally Google coming out with this capability and how is the criticism still "You are not Google"

100% the reason I am long on Google. They can take their time to monetize these new costs.

Even other search competitors have not proven to be a danger to Google. There is nothing stopping that search money coming in.

I've been aggressively firewalling Windows machine for ages now. Something like https://www.binisoft.org/wfc.php makes it easy to deal with.

Any executable like Copilot will never get access to the internet.

I don't see any impeachment proceedings from Congress. Looks like the wannabe dictator has their blessings.

'Density' is not the concern we all have about fossil fuels. It's the effects on the atmosphere.

It is an implementation. As long has it behaves the same...

Instead of being the best model, it's a race to bring in revenue and add bias for ad channels.

You are arguing as if the two sides are acting in good faith. Authoritarianism almost always isn't. Greed and corruption is is inherently tipping the scales unfairly against the fair system to be imbalanced against the good actor.

You can see it again and again in the success of voter suppression acts and the deceitful tactics played by authoritarians.

Arguments only work when both actors respect good arguments.

Hmmm. The rise of nazis to power from time to time is evidence to the contrary.

Most people, might not be 'stupid'; but complacency in the population is enough to drop the guard down.

>I really hope open-source Browsers like Firefox follow up soon with better alternatives, like on-device LLMs to counteract the "all in the cloud" LLM approach.

That's the first thing that came to mind. Every single action across every single website would be available to OpenAI with this browser. Even if I wanted to leverage something like this it'd have to be a fully local LLM interacting with a huge local DB of my info.

Yes, you can use

INSTALL iceberg;

to start working with iceberg https://duckdb.org/docs/stable/core_extensions/iceberg/overv...

Excel sheets have replaced many humans too. Pretty low bar for AGI if you'd ask me.

Everyone is very silent on AGI in the past months.

The latest from AI is better targeted ads and better adult content didn't you hear?

Have been running a couple of machines on Hetzner cloud with https://github.com/vitobotta/hetzner-ks for about 2 years now.

Have been very happy with the setup. Also hosts a StackGres cluster that's backs up to GCS. Plenty of compute foe the price.

Reminds me of this XKCD: https://xkcd.com/538/

With bitcoin you can't even just rely on memory for the keys, you need something physical that can be taken away from you.

And all of those things are more steps than "buying a computer".

Reminds me of the "Dropbox can be built in a weekend"
