Many people don't understand this, even big tech engineers. They see LLMs as a bottleneck. It's more that they don't understand how to use it to multiply their skills, just basics …

He also ruined the Vision Pro on his way out. Engineers wanted to do wireless to a Mac mini-like hub (not standalone) so the hub could have more computing power. It’s a dev device …

I think less people care about it politically than you think. Most people I know who have Teslas stand by the product even through Elon’s dumb shit. I think people care more about …

That’s an amazing story. The wife really gathered together all the right people to create a phage treatment to save her husband’s life. Great job on all the doctors and scientists …

It’s a pretty common phrase for “what’s the ultimate goal?” I don’t think it’s meant to be taken as a chess metaphor.

Downstream impact is gamed internally at Amazon. People crucified Sears for making teams compete internally but that’s literally what’s happening at Amazon at a larger scale. Teams…

Amazon has started to refuse returns on many items. One of their core customer value mechanisms has been destroyed. Online shopping requires returns. Removing that option significa…

Even the chronic pain patients should not have had the amounts prescribed to them that they were. Doctors were incentivized to give as much as possible. Creating addicts in people …

Are you one of the lawyers? None of that would’ve happened if they didn’t start the flood of opiates to begin with. It wasn’t a marginally increased issue, they flooded the market …

When we are paying for it, we should care about those things.

I don’t understand why Mazda doesn’t just make a drift-tuned electric car. You could do amazing stuff with software focused on that driving style. A true electric successor to the …

Why aren’t they naming the “telecommunications store”? Does knowing the employee did it make the company liable for damages?

If you own a Vizio, your viewing data is collected and sold to advertisers anyways. They have ACR software running that can recognize any content playing on the tv. Casted, OTA, st…

If you trust that the people you are working with are working towards the same goal, disagree and commit is important. You are not going to be right 100% of the time. If the group …

Seems like the in between of a managed service and raw AWS trying to take advantage of individual AWS accounts having a free tier. So have the customer make the account, take advan…

Create IDE configs and other guardrails to limit churn and discussions on already determined style for your team. Clear goals and acceptance criteria.

Marketed to the general public but will be used by pros. The goal is excitement and investment in the app ecosystem so, when they figure out the form factor, the cheaper/lighter/mo…

If they work better now (maybe limitations in the past like transfer speeds), what’s the problem?

Yeah, I love it. Learn about the entire process and keep going rather than cutting short after a perceived failure.
