    I believe you're being disingenuous. Perplexity is running a set of crawlers that do not respect robots.txt and take steps to actively evade detection. They are running a service a…

    I love that so many people here think they can think about the problem for 10 seconds and come up with a solution that hasn't already been considered a thousand times and discarded…

    I've moved from a Samsung S10+ to a Google Pixel 6 Pro and I couldn't be happier, and it's mainly because of November like this. I also hate that they got rid of their headphone ja…

    I've been reading Jason every day for the last 20-something years. I love his writing voice and his perspective on the world. There's no other blog I read as consistently or as ent…

    This is exactly why I refuse to buy any ios apple that cost more than $1. They're inevitably going away. This is also why the iPad is never going to replace a computer for me. Any …

    I'm not going to be at all surprised when Apple sells off their laptop division and kills their few remaining desktops. It's obvious they have no interest in anything outside of th…

    This is something that students and parents should take into account when they're trying to figure out what school students should go to. In other words, stop going to NYU. It's a …
