Because the person found it fun is a valid reason. It’s kinda cool! I’m pretty sure Apple will do this in macOS 28, and there are some details to improve (guessing from the animation, haven’t installed it). But, people…
So replier is right here: Jobs had opinions about literally every detail, he pushed people to work out those details and challenge their own assumptions, and he talked about these things in public like a designer—not…
That’s very true—the dude was up everyone’s ass. But there is a difference between Steve being involved as a stakeholder and people who are closer to doing the work itself. I mean yeah if I had to choose purely for…
Don’t hate the player. I have mad respect for people who can actually throw away a shit ton of financial security for themselves and their families for something they believe in. It’s rare for a reason. Everyone has a…
One big difference from Steve: it isn't the Steve show anymore. The people showing this stuff off are the people who lead the the teams that work on these things. It's so much cooler to me to see the people closer to…
I think you gotta set aside some of that to enjoy both as Sci-Fi games, not space sim games. In Sci-Fi, asteroids are close together and you can shoot them for resources or lose an enemy in them like a dark forest,…
People who use AI to do criminal acts should be tried as criminals, period. Gotta stop this unaccountable crap. You pull the trigger, you did the murder.
I would not recommend using any of those notes as evidence of internal “intent.” It produces them performatively—it is literally rewarded for thinking out loud in ways that seem plausible to humans. There are several…
Suggests desperation, or delusions of grandeur, or both. These are not trustworthy people. And they have everything to lose if they do not become the most powerful and valuable company in the whole of human existence,…
I think the core lesson of the story is knowing if your hobby is listening to music or curating a music collection. Optimize for one or the other. I went from meticulously curated MP3 collection on Linux to letting…
The non-story part is that they would include this risk even if it were 5 people.
Apparently >50% of a jury did not agree with you, in this case, and that is one form of democracy we have to make sure decisions come from the consent of the governed. Looks like democracy to me.
Gotta take making things away from the bean counters. Put product people back in charge, people who love what they make. "We don't make movies to make money. We make money to make movies." — Disney
Lying bullshitters all. These people are not interested in coherent policy. They say whatever they want to justify it, we know it, and they know we know it. It’s an intentional expression of domination. Just another…
The future is probably not 100% generated, but probably a mix of generation + animation + motion capture. AI is not going to be able to replicate the deep and affecting performances you get from humans—I fully believe…
Basically what iOS messages does with SMS. I would note that this hasn't resulted in everyone using iOS messages as a communication protocol, but it does make users aware when it's not in use, with some inherent social…
Having a billion dollars means the rules no longer apply to you. That is incompatible with functioning capitalism—incentives are no longer aligned with the rest of humanity—or personal freedom—rules for thee but not for…
“Boars are attacking the town! Kill 200 to thin the herd.” “We tried everything to cure the boars, but we couldn’t. If they go any farther, they’ll infect everything. Kill 200 to stop them from infecting the forest.”…
No one is “valuable.” People just are, whatever they are. And that has to be enough.
They’re already doing it. To anywhere they can be safe.
Texas would need to train its people. And the people would need to be as hungry as the Chinese were, and are to a certain extent. You should read the book the OT is talking about, it shows how the U.S. didn’t stand a…
This is the key passage. That may be true at some point, but it isn't now: > The filing also disputed SpaceX’s argument that it is a “carrier by air transporting mail for or under contract with the United States…
Would you say that about really well-edited scene in a movie, or a photograph that feels perfect, or a joke with perfect delivery? A lot of those things are defined by timing and the space between moments that aren't…
I'd wish a lot of people who make statements like "it just doesn't matter," or "this is meaningless" or "this is stupid," or any statement that terminates without some kind of qualify or scope, perhaps take a moment and…
It’s, hilariously, the opposite: the exposure of this idea makes every other product better and Apple can’t change it (until they do). Product tying is not a thing you can bypass. This is idea is independent of whether…
