Usually the WiFi setup is the biggest culprit. You’ll want to have wifi 6 and wire your desktop to the router.

Apple could theoretically directly connect between their compute puck and their headset.

But also more weight

Meta can do wireless VR streamed from a PC with airlink. That’s at lower resolution, but it’s at least theoretically possible.

It could be done, but there are more tradeoffs than at first glance. They probably didn’t do this because when they took the battery off the head it was already too late to redesign the thing again.

You would need to propagate signals from all the sensors back and forth which adds some overall weight in copper, and perhaps latency for more encoding and decoding. Could be worth it, we’ll see in v2.

It's basically Apple's version of Microsoft's Holographic Processing Unit

The math makes no sense, ~70,000 devices (best case) and $30 CPM (high) is like $2100 with every device watching your content.

Google doesn’t have enough e-fuses to update the pixel phones for seven years, the marketing department is incompetent and didn’t talk to literally the only engineers they should have.

This is the same failed strategy that Microsoft tried with windows 10 uwp. The control schemes and form factors matter so developers don’t get much benefit.

Because the Vision Pro has no compelling use case. Games is what you do when you don’t know what to do.

Satya wants to be able to book the OpenAI money as revenue. This is better for him.

Says the guy who copied everything from Xerox

What's the distribution of experience though? In a fast growing field, most will be early in career, which will push this metric down relative to established fields with little growth.

Seems like people didn't like Google FloC, it's possible the implementation was bad, but I suspect people don't like ads because the vast majority of ads are low quality.

and there will still only be 21 million bitcoin

> the people that are buying a product, are the advertisers, not the end users. Antitrust enforcement made the major mistake of only considering welfare of the end user.

Google and Facebook substantially decreased the price of advertising and greatly improved its effectiveness. Antitrust law seems to be moving towards a more competition-focused approach, at least in Europe, so maybe the legal system will push them towards higher prices and more competitors.

We could also simply just not update them all at once. This is just baseless fear mongering. Obviously everyone agrees there's more engineering rigor that should go into these things than your run of the mill CRUD app from a seed stage startup.

Worker protections have incentivized automation historically.

Workers providing these services is a point in time, and while it exists we should mitigate the downsides.

Meta products have more users than ever

Why do the people even want the internet anyways, they like getting everything from apple

Cacheing becomes more challenging, but you could theoretically decode the scheme at the cdn

8-10 hours a day? Basically nobody is using social media this much.

How can this be decentralized with no ICO?

Apple's competitors are capable of competing with them, so long as Apple doesn't preference itself unfairly

like anything the government bans, price will go up

Typically you build up accounts and pages over a long time period and try to fly under the radar until you're big enough to affect change without getting caught. In this case, my read is Russia is much better at growing before getting caught, probably due to more experience with influence operations.

Oculus is a much bigger investment than Stadia

It's not just about the quality of content. Facebook's value prop is about creating a social experience around the content.

> But they also make their money by directly charging users for services unlike the ad-based companies.

this does not make them more trustworthy

> There have also been many attempts by various governments to publicly force Apple to insert backdoors or prevent them from fixing security vulnerabilities which have failed.

Except in china, I suppose.

51% attacks can not arbitrarily change the rules nor can they steal funds. They can double spend or prevent finality. Nodes enforce the rules of the network by rejecting blocks they deem invalid.
