And the latest version of Firefox requires the version of Android released in 2017… is that really a win?

This is completely different. While for Uber and AirBnb as the person delivering the service I have to worry about a private citizen either doing harm to my property (more statisti…

I review AI generated test of AI just like I reviewed tests of developers on a team I was leading. There is no “morality” when it comes to my job. Outside of my feeling morally obl…

And then as experience developer you would have to try one of the other tools in your toolbox. Why should someone tie a hand behind their back and not use an LLM out of some sense …

That would require the logged in user to do something stupid. That’s like saying what’s to prevent the authorized user from emailing his credentials to a random person.

We do? Have you been reading the news where the President is firing AGs who won’t go after his enemies and firing FBI agents who didn’t agree to perp walk his enemy? Not to mention…

Surely you aren’t talking about Android as “open source”. To a first approximation no one wants a phone running only AOSP without Google’s proprietary parts.

I can’t see the case where we won’t need more data centers in the future even if AI is a bubble as more work load is generated and even if it is a bubble. There are real world use …

It came out soon after AOL acquired Tine Warner in 2001 that they artificially inflated income to prop their stock up for the merger to go through. No one was punished for it.

Who gets hurt when the bubble pops? And who will the government need to bail out? Last time, a lot of the companies were public and the general public saw stock losses. This time t…
