myko··on SwiftUI After 7 Years
To be fair CoreData was always a footgun as well
myko··on Google fixed more Chrome bugs in June than over the past two years, thanks to AI
or Swift! I know it isn't super popular outside of Apple ecosystems but I migrated a C 200k LOC personal project to Swift over the last ~4 years and it's gone really well.
myko··on Apple defeats liability for not scanning iCloud for CSAM
The 2A was created for states to maintain their own troops, what is now the modern national guard - hence "well regulated militia"

SCOTUS bastardized this original intent. It's shameful.

always with the "both sides" stuff, meanwhile trump literally provided girls to Epstein through Mar-A-Lago
myko··on Building and shipping Mac and iOS apps without opening Xcode

Looking at you, Apple
myko··on New York City to ban deceptive subscription practices
Truly insane that the US political system fucks people who live in population centers. Horribly designed.
myko··on Grok 4.5
Shocked people are still willing to try an explicitly extremist rightwing AI, dubbed "mecha Hitler" for good reason
myko··on Political bias in AI: Where the AI models stand
Nah, being woke was always good, since the beginning: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_Awakes

People would be embarrassed to say they were anti-woke 20 years ago, it's a shame what has happened to the US

myko··on China sentences official to death for taking $325M in bribes
I'm generally against the death penalty but this kind of malfeasance truly deserves it. Sad to see similar corruption at the top levels of the US.
myko··on Odin, Wikipedia and engagement farming
Odin isn't exactly obscure to be fair
myko··on Google loses fight over record $4.7B EU antitrust fine
Not anymore :)
myko··on 30-year sentence for transporting zines is a five-alarm fire for free speech
I can't imagine "both side'sing" the situation in the United States right now. The country has been taken over by a criminally corrupt, sick individual, who given his responsibility w.r.t Jan 6th isn't even eligible for the office he holds - the country is collapsing.
myko··on U.S. allows Anthropic to release Mythos AI to ‘trusted’ US organizations
> doesn't have the right to release weapons technologies

true but that isn't what we're talking about here

myko··on Political bias in AI: Where the AI models stand
Definitely captures the US since the whole trump thing
myko··on US holds off blacklisting DeepSeek, more than 100 firms deemed security risks
True that it is collapsing which is sad but it does, in part, still function. We are the proverbial frog in the pot.
myko··on US holds off blacklisting DeepSeek, more than 100 firms deemed security risks
even itself!

Given what happened January 6th the unsettling truth is the USA is essentially an occupied nation.

myko··on Amazon CEO's talks with U.S. officials triggered crackdown on Anthropic models
What a clownshow, what a fucking circus
myko··on Statement on US government directive to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5
Extreme fucking overreach. This is outrageous.
myko··on Sem: New primitive for code understanding – not LSPs, but entities on top of Git
iiuc they answered the question directly and then told them where they can find further answers, didn't seem tone deaf at all
myko··on The perils of UUID primary keys in SQLite
I've been preaching this for years but nobody believes me until it bites them in the ass
myko··on Google to pay SpaceX $920M a month for compute capacity at xAI data centers
Nazi AI is bad actually, most governments will not want to be associated with it
myko··on Bricks and Minifigs Stole a Man's $200k Lego Collection
> It seems like theft

It is theft!

myko··on Bricks and Minifigs Stole a Man's $200k Lego Collection
Damn, I didn't realize this was a huge chain. I've hundreds of dollars at a local store and need to rethink that (easy enough to just go to the actual Lego store instead). This is crazy behavior, shameful.
myko··on ICE Awards $25M Iris-Scanning Contract to Bi2 Technologies
He should've been locked up on January 7th. That was the death knell.
myko··on Goodbye Visa and Mastercard: 130M Europeans switching to sovereign payment
When I was in the middle east as part of the US Army I really felt like my European friends had my back, no complaints here.

Apologies the other way around, though.

myko··on Goodbye Visa and Mastercard: 130M Europeans switching to sovereign payment
This is good for the world given the situation in the USA today. The folks in the US who voted for this will never understand how badly they fucked up.
myko··on Gemini CLI will stop working from June 18, 2026
Copilot CLI would like a word
myko··on Gemini 3.5 Flash
> and because the ban applied outside of Google work as well

I think false (or hasn't filtered to everyone lol)
