Fundamentally tying the OS to the cloud and AI makes me think this is really a pretense to move windows to a subscription model, and likely to end data privacy on windows as we kno…

I'll point out that just on this comment string from telmac are 3 different interpretations of what is wrong with the code and what should be done instead.

I was just wondering what has come out of silicon valley since say 2003 that has been a net positive for humanity. Just because something is profitable doesn't mean it's progress.

(If I'm understanding correctly) one example is if have two places where you x++ in the loop, so if you make an error in there you might end up hitting both of them and incrementin…

I can't see VR being a better home video experience for most people. For one thing, watching is often a group experience with friends, spouse, kids, etc regardless of content. But …

I think the main reason, besides chess being fundamentally a great and timeless game, is streaming. Popular streamers picked it up and many top level players also started streaming…

Great vibe. My only gripe is the music doesn't seem to be lofi at all, just like slow beats. Maybe it's just where I'm at in the playlist though.

Imagine for a split second an idea of value that doesn't start and end with private profit

Even if online sales are slowing overall maybe it is still growing in some areas, requiring more capacity. As for the land purchasing, maybe it is partly an investment to get cash …

This is odd to read because his chat moves pretty quick from what I have seen, in line with streams of similar size. Lots of memes and emote spam. But in general I agree with you, …

"Invested" in "inner work". Indie, maker, optimizer. Maybe it is just a different kinds of people thing but I think we shouldn't use business jargon language, with all the implicit…
