Is this the guy who was complaining that he didn't get hired by Google even though he made brew? Maybe there were personality issues at play...

Maybe its related to their move to a subscription model somehow.

Add birth control to that list too.

After these technologies, certainly life is "normal" as in "life goes on" but the social impacts are most definitely new and transformative. Fast travel, instantaneous direct and mass communications, control over family formation all have had massive impact on how people live and interact and then transform again.

and they get only 3 results?

Like many AI-driven products, the marquee use case they show is useless. "Job offers that require my signature"?? I am going to have one of these in the air at one time and will not be too busy to keep track the relevant emails! Indicates to me that product is a solution in search of a problem.

Similarly, the first Humane AI Pin hype video showed a guy on a train asking his pin to tell him about prices of vintage photos of a solar eclipse.

Yep. The great thing about the expectation of suit is always knowing what to wear.

I don't think it's fair to the candidate to expect them to think that when a recruiter says "suit up" they mean in t-shirt and jeans or cutoffs.

I wonder if repair culture will expand in the US if prices on consumer elections rise with tariffs.

That isn't necessary, we know how much revenue that will raise.

The problem is that raising top end rates don't go far enough. It's a start, but we also need to raise the lower rates to solve the problem. That, or dramatically cut benefits.

Are families socialist, or clannish and nepotistic? I don't think you can run a country like a family, especially a multicultural transcontinental one.

That's because humans are all the same species.

Yes to both.

I agree with the sentiment, but LLMs have already had a lot more adoption than VR and Crypto.

Fiber optic and data center build out in the nineties is similar. Overinvestment led to a bust for a period, but the infrastructure was useful and provided the foundation for the next wave of Internet growth. LLMs could be similar.

US mortgage rates are typically 30-year fixed. In Europe aren't they typically variable rate and shorter times? Both impact the rate significantly.

A common language is a key component of the "melting" part.

In my experience, hardware people in the top decision making roles are the cause of degradation of software quality, not the solution. They often don't understand the nature of software and software product management.

The fixes are really really minor. Larger functional bugs that aren’t catastrophic are hanging out.

That said, it’s been fine for me and I’m still using it. I don’t see any reason to abandon it yet. When the company fails maybe they’ll open source or sell it. I’d happily pay for this.

Apple Arcade is great for avoiding all the adware and in-app payment crap.

This inspired me to play a round of Klondike for the first time in many years. Pretty fun! Probably slightly healthier than scrolling social media.

I'd expect this to be like when you call the bank and go through the phone tree, enter your account, birth date, SSN, zip code, etc. Finally get connected to the rep and the first questions are "What's your name and birth date?"

You can do all that in VS Code with the vim extension. I'm with you on the vim keystrokes, but configuring debuggers, code completion, etc. in vim never seemed worth the effort. With VS Code and vim keybindings, it's the best of both worlds.

I suspect putting these on the internet is recommended so they can push firmware updates, and perhaps it's even required to make the thing work.

Nah, it's to deflect customer support contacts. Which often in the case of ISPs, results in a truck roll which is hugely expensive.

The science is settled, bro.

Reading the article, I'd guess the introduction of the slash was introduced because the actual letter (Ꝃ) wasn't available on earlier technology like a typewriter. Funny that the "fix" caused problems with the next generation of tech.

I agree with you within a single data domain.

But is a smart comment buried in there about ETL systems and data exchange where it's pretty easy, and arguably correctly in some cases, to get "null" in an exported field. Then the importing system, again arguable correctly, needs to handle the null case as a true null, not "null." I'm not sure there is a very easy fix for this or an obvious best practice.

Rushed it out to respond to the JD Vance speech?

You mean comment equating FAA employees with air traffic controllers? Yes.
