I did not use AI to write any of my comment. Please don’t make that accusation. I don’t use AI to write prose at all in any form, not even drafts.
Your middle paragraph sounds amazing but it works great until it doesn’t. That’s pretty much the answer. The simple stuff has already been tried and there’s already some reason why we can’t just make XYZ simpler.
Boilerplate becomes burdensome as complexity increases. Perhaps sometimes we don’t give ourselves enough credit for how much applications and their infrastructure are actually taking care of as part of boilerplate. I…
It’s not just code quality, it’s all the other business fundamentals like the product itself having value. I see this in a very non-AI way working at a company that’s a hodgepodge of acquisitions. Some of our products…
I agree. Being twice as fast as X might not help depending on how X impacts Y and Z. As an example, my X is that boilerplate and general speed/effort of modifying my code is lower, but I’m noticing that this doesn’t…
If you had continued they probably took just about zero rights away from you. Anyone can put a bunch of unenforceable scary language in their EULA.
This assumes that anyone has maintained the 48V infrastructure, which doesn’t seem like something that will be feasible considering the insignificant quantity of customers using true copper landline service. The other…
When cars became popular, a lot of urban areas were developed under the assumption that all destinations would be reached by car from that point in time onward. There was no need to consider the idea that someone might…
I gotta be honest I don’t care enough about this subject enough to keep going lol I am really just not in any pickle and don’t lose sleep over any of this. That was my original entire point is that sometimes it’s…
And similar to a phone, I don’t usually think that the answer is to just not own one at all. I’m all for reducing trips and being more mindful about car dependency but I’m not personally going to sell my car because I…
Telecoms (calling and texting) are literally regulated utilities. I’m confused at where the baggage is. I’m failing to see how Twitter is relevant. I’m failing to see the “keeping up with the Joneses” factor here. I am…
Last two sentences of your first paragraph are definitely not the sort of thing I was trying to say is okay. I also don’t think some of the conveniences I talked about have much of a cost. My kids having a cell phone…
Knowing where they are isn’t necessarily “installing spy apps,” it can just mean being able to call them or text them. “Move to a safer city” is a lot more expensive than a phone plan. A lot of people don’t have that…
The other side of this coin is that not everything about the past was better. I’m struggling to see how having anxiety about losing your children is better. I’m struggling to understand how knowing where they are would…
The indictment of Cursor is that it’s run by a Nazi-saluting illegal immigrant who spends hundreds of millions of dollars to elect people who want to make your life worse. My statement sounds like inflammatory hyperbole…
Well, the commenter said “best recommended,” and usually “best recommended” means it’s at the top of the sales charts or at least somewhere close, not #4 in global marketshare. If your point is that Apple computers are…
Where we are still in disagreement here is the fundamental idea that a computer should be maximizing the amount of information on the screen. I don’t really believe in that. The power user who wants that can make that…
Of course, the obvious best way to protect Detroit was to continue the EV rebate program. Ford, GM, and Stellantis were dumping money into EV development. The rebates directly favored domestically produced batteries…
For everything that actually matters about owning a car, things like service network, whether the brand will exist in 20-30 years, parts availability, crash safety, driving characteristics and comfort, manufacturing…
I'm not sure this article really points at government debt or spending as being immediately obviously relevant to this accident. Of course, it's probably too early to say, and that again makes me question why we are…
I’m very wary of finger-pointing like your comment that ultimately serves to advocate for cutting quality of life for citizens. Roughly 31% of Japan’s budget goes to social security. They don’t have problems keeping…
I hope so given that they now sell a significant amount of smartphones. Hardware is lower margin and makes revenue a lot higher since the purchase price is so high in comparison to software. E.g., let’s say Google makes…
You are quoting an incorrect TDP number for the 338H (65W is not correct), and in addition to that you are misreading "maximum" as its minimum. It idles at far lower than 25W. And anyway, TDP is not a standardized…
If Apple is the better product why are they #4 in PC sales? Lenovo sells over 2x more personal computers than Apple.
The UI isn't worse though, it's literally the same. It's just an additional option you have to be able to touch the screen. I routinely forget that my Framework 13 Pro even has a touch screen. I don't really care that…
