True but it also reflects that the EU has indeed destroyed most goodwill towards it in the last decade regarding most things digital. Most EU initiatives have damaged everyday UX on the web and in tech. Yes, some…
Awesome book. Students were already gaming the system as extremists in 1200 Paris. > (the cleric students were) marked by the tonsure, which granted them two major privileges: > the privilegium canonis, protected their…
This specific design decision makes so little sense, really curious on how it got approved. It's not an accident or a miss, since the variable radius got quite heavily promoted during WWDC. Hopeful they don't wait 7…
If 90% of passengers were scamming the drivers or hijacking the car for some nefarious purpose that affects other cars, you definitely wouldn't find that silly.
Looks like it's recording all the time and analyzes 900 screenshots every 15 minutes? And it keeps records for 3 days. So I'm not sure I buy the lightweight/low-impact claim.
That's one is first point: "don't buy anything Apple" based on the linked Anil Dash's post, itself based on Arab Steve Jobs fantasy and Cook's supposed betrayal.
Clickbait built on 2 fantasy notions: 1- that Jobs would somehow be the hero of a mythical arab/syrian culture and diversity politics who would have behaved differently than Cook towards Trump. If anything, Jobs…
It's ironic that you didn't read a comment before answering. > it's unclear that Nasa can ever be without that (military and political) oversight By design, Nasa is probably doomed to get interference. > If theyd kept…
You could swap "tech" for "big media" and just play the same blame game for Reagan's and Bush Jr's elections. > the crown jewels of America’s last century Including Nasa in this pure idealization of the past. Nasa had…
Feels more like Apple is sticking to its position that "all those LLMs are gimmicks and not actual AI". So they think they're not late because they see the primary tech behind oAI (etc) as a base for non-threatening…
Sounds a lot like "Google+ will catch Facebook in no time". OpenAI has been on a winning streak that makes ChatGPT the default chatbot for most of the planet. Everybody else like you describe is trying to add some AI…
Pretty sure this is not about revenue but profit margins, since the Services line was under heavy surveillance by markets back then. Though that's the core issue, margins on services are just too addictive for big tech.…
You could argue that macOS development is too slow, not too fast and in need of a maintenance year. Basic OS features have fallen way behind in term of UX - and of vision. Managing files and searching for information…
An engineer in chief is not necessarily the best way to grow an engineering driven culture.
Pretty sure this thread will be the slashdot equivalent of iPod launch.
Just give it a few months and they can probably get back IP and the remaining OAI assets for nothing.
tl,dr: CCP involves as many ordinary people as it can into the judicial and extra-judicial killing process in what could be "life insurance" for the regime: too many have blood on their hands to ever face…
I've always been a fan of those projects but it's clear they've now mostly turned to greenporn. For this specific project: nothing makes sense. The farm is operated by "Nordic Harvest", with claims that it can produce…
Al Jazeera is 100% owned by the Qatari state (itself lacking democratic institutions), with its 2 last CEOs being from the ruling Qatari family. The current editorial standards are supervised by AJ chair man, who is…
Not sure this is the weakest link in value-for-money for Apple products. Like many people I know, my iPhones have been changed for no fee, outside warranty, for minor or major issues. I'd say it's more about Apple…
john...doe@gmail.com doesn’t seem to work though. I don’t think Gmail takes multiple dots.
I use a non-Facebook login on Spotify and the app crashes right there. How is this even possible, even less acceptable from Spotify point of view?
This is missing something on the larger dynamics at play to reinvent the car. It’s one of the biggest addictions inherited from the 20th century (with disposable plastics and cigarettes). This is not only about…
I live in Paris and whatever you think of the current mayor, this is pure marketing babble for the elections next month. Paris has always had this very dense city core where 99% of daily life is 5-10’ away. It’s a great…
Over 10 years of terrible back pain, tried all kind of things. At some point, I was prescribed painkillers, tried PT, yoga, everything. Turned out that the “glutes/hip weakness” approach was correct. Changed my life -…
