My employer pushes everybody heavily towards AI, but unsurprisingly that stops the moment the work is late or bad in a way that catches their management chain's attention. I'm not …

Oh, I hadn't even considered the interpretation here where you're saying knowledge work is pointless and always has been. I'm not even going to engage with that one because I see t…

I certainly do. As usual the revolution is weeks away, but I continue to produce work better, faster and more reliably than my colleagues who have outsourced their brains to Claude…

Comments like this make me wonder if we're all inhabiting the same reality.

I don't think it would matter - the crime is sending images, not necessarily sending images of you . Entirely plausible a perp might use a random image they found online rather tha…

I think it's a question of integrity - I have reached a comfortable ceiling in my career, but doing the dumb shit would have got me further, faster. I don't begrudge the peers who …

There are good PMs out there watching in horror as their peers make changes and features that are obviously doomed (to anybody with a functional brain). I also write as much code a…

A lot of OEMs will have a shortcut to enable screen reader mode even if the display is cooked (I think maybe both volume buttons at once for 5s?). OTG keyboard can be a lifesaver t…

I don't know how scientifically valid this is (I hope very) but when a friend told me my USB hub / switcher would be introducing a lot of input lag, I bought a USB to eth adaptor a…

> I know so many people who made that same argument, if you can call it that, about smartphones. Sure, but people also told me I'd be using crypto for everything now and (at least …

> Why ... wade through dubious results, etc when you can just instantly get the result you want in the format you want it? Funnily enough, this is exactly how I justify Googling st…

Sonarr and Radarr are the big ones. Tracks new content (in these cases, TV shows and movies) and auto downloads as they become available.

Good luck! Great to see people having a go. Save a screenshot of my cynicism to send me when you make bank.

Neither of your demos actually launch when you press the buttons (Chrome on Android). Does this have users?

"let's schedule a short 1:1 pre meeting to get on the same page before we waste our team's time with a bigger thing" No, it's better to find their flight schedule and wait at the g…

I think that's a slightly orthogonal issue - I'm talking Google Search vs other search providers. I doubt there's a significant gap between Chrome and Chromium.

Probably not, but I reckon they'd have a crack for Nürburgring holiday planning.

Windows is still the most popular desktop / laptop OS, and while it might come with a Chromium browser it defaults to Bing. Users who want Google search need to either change their…

I'm being a bit contrary, but: it sounds like 80% of your traffic was coming, for free, from Google. Is the claim here that if you killed SEO, some more equitable, consistent metho…

What about the reason of "followers can read it in their feed without navigating away to a separate domain"?

I wish YouTube Music did this :( Ideas for other analysis; Songs that over or under index when sliced by some other dimension. Weather? Morning vs evening? Weekday vs weekend? Summ…

The original title is, in fact, the very first thing in the document. Twice!

The picture I was looking for in the article! Thanks.

Yes. I think my core thesis is that if noise and pollution upsets you, then I would spend less time complaining about a niche hobby that barely effects anybody, and a lot more time…
