I've always attributed this sort of thing to companies outgrowing any form of manageable structure. At a scale like google, each team gets so distant from various parts of other pa…

> The newer and better google tv streamer 4k is half the cost. reply I wouldn't go remotely that far, the old Apple TV blows the doors off every single Google TV hardware product i…

One thing I wonder is if this is just one step removed from 'Now we know the identity of every user so we can now have both probable cause and verified identity to arrest over stat…

For what it is worth, an M4 mac mini is also like 30-50x faster. Like, legitimately.

The funny thing about all of this to me is that, compared to most 'hacking' scenes in movies, this bit is wildly realistic, almost too good. If they were like "run upload_me" we wo…

Dell's own refurbished site. The precision 5560 is in their hot deals.

Not just 'way', These prices are downright absurd and anyone who buys one is either giving a donation or an idiot. $2000 for the very cheapest first-gen Core ultra CPU is nuts. You…

Meanwhile in private equity world, they have realized that code is "piling up from 10Xing everyone's performance" and as a result they have solved it by just firing all QA, focusin…

The answer really is that they were spending an amount of that money on devs who were working on tailwindUI / Plus - their paid product.

Yeah this is exactly opposite my issue with LLMs. They often take what you say as the truth when it absolutely could not be.

I mean, this is a textbook over-simplifaction to devalue an idea. Hell, with that logic, you could call all kinds of things a non-starter. "Why buy a watch, it just shows the time …

Which to be absurdly clear - is exactly what Rebble did to Pebble. They scraped the apps and are now mad that someone else could do the same to them.

Isn’t EEE exactly what Rebble is doing? They embraced the the pebble community with a copy of the App Store, extended it with their own weather apis and the like, and then now are …

It is basically a amd 7640u with a 7600m glued on. All together and subsidized by the store, there is no reason to think this will be more than $600, likely closer to $500.

Who quoted 800eur? This should be way closer to $500usd or PS5 pricing. Plus the ram and storage is upgradable.

I mean, if you have seen RasPi prices lately, I'm not so sure this is true. Seems like a really profitable biz..granted, I wouldn't pay their absurd prices for such underpowered ha…

FWIIW - The new Uno Q is exactly the midpoint of your comment - a linux based computer WITH a STM32 coprocessor to confuse the heck out of everything.

Honestly the best argument for uncompressed is actually nothing to do with file quality or loss - it's that Apple only supports uncompressed Fuji RAWs. You cannot preview or proces…

I meant mostly in the context of daily life tasks as a person with ADHD - so maybe a hair neurodivergent. My issue isn't that I don't wonder things, it is that indulging the wonder…

Oh I do still enjoy the glasses, they are actually rather incredible, even though they do not have a screen. That said - These actually do have a Be My Eyes integration - It is inc…

Thats super reasonable - I'm a person with ADHD so if I'm asking questions in a grocery store context - I might fully forget things or take way too long to get things done - Going …

Nobody actually wants half the useless tools companies are coming up with because most of the solutions are not really novel. They are just wrapping an LLM. It's kinda like what I …

I'm about to sound crazy. Github's problem is that it isn't a SPA. It is a massive Ruby on rails project that is all server-rendered. Everything you do needs to be synchronous and …
