    I'm on their pro plan and I respectfully disagree - it's genuinely excellent with GLM 5.1 so long as you remember to /compact once it hits around 100k tokens. At that point it's pr…

    I don't disagree but then don't announce it. The issue isn't that they don't have these features, the issue is that they announced them in such a way that suggested they were right…

    Entirely anecdotal but in my experience amalgam fillings do seem to hold up much, much better than white ones.

    Indeed. My response to this has largely been "if this passes I'll just block traffic from the UK to my website" as it'd be cheaper than implementing this utter madness.

    Indeed, REAPER is surprisingly prominent in video game audio.

    Thing is even if you're not using Russian gas directly, prices are still going to be influenced by the global gas market (and the wider global economy in general).

    I suspect as of Big Sur that Apple were intending to release touchscreen Macs, but the changes to the OS in future versions makes me suspect that they then changed their mind.

    Indeed. As someone in their 20s one of my regrets, genuinely, is that when I was younger I didn't just spend more time playing video games rather than doomscrolling...

    Indeed but I think again information does have a role to play here. Back then everyone around you was going through the same shit and you learned to deal with it. Now you have soci…

    I think you've hit the nail on the head. I'm happily using Windows now but used a Mac before and it took a long time for me to realise that my complaints about Windows largely boil…

    I mean, I agree, but to be fair I had a positive experience once by letting my employer know when I had already started interviewing elsewhere (really just giving them a heads up t…

    In short, because the vaccines available in China, as it turns out, aren't all that effective at all, and the Chinese government desperately needs to save face now.

    Which implies that, at least theoretically, that Apple could enable the other neural engine at a later date (not that they would).

    It really reminds me of that interview with Steve Jobs from the 90s where you can tell just how frustrated he is at Microsoft's success with what he describes as really "third-rate…

    Not to mention if you build your own PC you can upgrade the parts as and when, unlike with the new Mac where you'll eventually just be replacing the whole thing.

    Oh absolutely, but what I have noticed as well is that companies in lower wage countries have started charging more as well as there's now more demand for outsourced workers.

    My company is fully remote, and whilst I'd agree that it's certainly doable to onboard people remotely (we've absolutely done this successfully), I would also say it really depends…

    Indeed. Not to mention if you're at one of the bigger companies then you're more likely to change teams than leave the company entirely.

    To be fair though I think there's a happy medium. For a while I really loved Apple's approach of just not giving a damn about backwards compatibility but I have to say using Window…

    To be fair I think the problem isn't just the people but how the roads and infrastructure is designed in the US. It's very anti-pedestrian.

    To play devil's advocate, I actually suspect the reason Apple were planning to implement this was because they were intending to start using E2E encryption on iCloud photos, but to…

    Indeed. I switched from macOS to Windows about a year ago now and I have to say I really appreciate how on Windows stealing focus is much, much more rare than it was on macOS. I ho…

    Indeed. I'm a web developer and my tools genuinely work better just under native Linux than they ever could with WSL etc.

    Sums up my feelings really. I genuinely think that what they're saying is probably true, that these emails were sent in error (and I have to say I don't envy their teams at all in …

    No doubt it's very popular still - I see it used every day. Just most of the people using it are busy using it and it's not the new hotness that warrants constant new discussion.
