For what it's worth I genuinely loved your landing page. I casually clicked through and got an immediate unexpected chuckle at the giant animated crab.
It's obviously AI assisted but I interpreted it as a nod to itself on that and really appreciated it.
There's also nothing stopping us from stigmatizing the use of smartphones in public. Even a slight discouragement of it would be progress. It doesn't have to be all or nothing.
I think smartphones are a lost cause. Even at the gym, there are guys in the locker room taking pics of themselves in the mirror. Meanwhile I'm walking ass-naked out of the shower. There is just no sensitivity to appropriate time and place anymore.
It worked on ipv6 only for like a year, it seemed to be back this last month but it seems to be back down right now probably because of this whole github ragequit happening.
Teams is insane. You want a new entry in a bulleted list? Hit the enter key. If you dare.
I had managed to be on Slack exclusively for at least 10 years. Recent acquisition has me using Teams and it's hilarious to see for the first time what people have been complaining about. I thought surely people are exaggerating. No, no they are not.
It only took a couple weeks for me to figure out that I would have to compose longer messages somewhere else and then paste them into Teams.
Yeah, I had thin insulation strips running around these edges because my wrists were legit getting sore from these edges. And then Apple replaced the bottom case so they're back, as sharp as ever.
Thank you! I zoomed in on the photo looking for sanded corners on the MacBook and saw none. Took me a sec to finally see the amorphous edge nr the trackpad...
This is incorrect usage of the word "corner" to be overly pedantic. It's still a corner, but English doesn't have a separate word for inside vs. outside corner, so it's common to just say "outside corner".
And yes it is a corner (or vertex), where two planes meet. Edge can also be correct, but corner is not wrong.
Apple computers are made for those who purchases a computer. They are engineered to look great on a demo shelf.
«During the first Jobsian era at Apple, I used to joke that Steve Jobs cared deeply about Apple customers from the moment they first considered purchasing an Apple computer right up until the time their check cleared the bank.» (Bruce Tognazzini)
Of course it worked. Apple turned from a company that sells electronic equipment into a company that sells media consumption devices which double as fashion accessories signaling high social status. Of course the addressable market is 2-3 orders of magnitude larger.
They still sell computers, which count below 10% of the revenue, and are also partly fashion accessories.
I spend well over that of my employers money on pentesting every year. I’m absolutely certain Claude could perform as good or better a job using what’s available today.
It had crossed my mind that an AI agent pentester would be an interesting product to build. Once again though, the labs are just going to build it because it’s a thin thin wrapper.
Beyond existing software with vulnerabilities, the really important aspect of this for Anthropic et al is that the gigatons of code that are being generated every day needs to be secured.
There are quite a few such startups already out there. Results are mixed so far. Though I believe they get much better over the coming months and years.
Yeah, flying my family of 5 to Hawaii using skymiles accrued on my Amex. Totally a scam.
They’re basically interchangeable with cash. I don’t get the issue. The main frustration I have is that I cant buy myself a ticket with cash and then pay skymiles for my child. If they weren’t of an age that they must be on the same reservation it wouldn’t matter. Feels more like a limitation of Delta’s abacus that sits behind their mobile app.
