No way in hell will I give Meta access to my IoT network.

Microsoft stole from Apple once before, so it's not like this hasn't been experienced in reverse.

Agree. I miss the mini. My girlfriend still has hers and is reluctant to upgrade for the inflation in size that happens every generation. Pretty soon we'll all look stupid with tablet-sized phones hanging from our necks by a lanyard.

The last company that I'd want to entrust my life with.

This is literally how Cell was made. Cell Saga, here we go.

It's not. Trump has always wanted to revert back to a predominantly white America if he could achieve it. The government is racist and hides their racism behind shitty interpretations of our founding articles.

This explains why they were in China pushing for them to open up the market to them. They're nearly bleeding all of Europe.

So, these will just be dumped into schools and the already deteriorating education system will just collapse because kids won't know anything and Gemini will just be doing everything for them.

I hate AI.

The message is too smart for the people it's directed at.

Shocked that they didn't just offer eBay $2 like they did for literally everything I brought to trade in.

I bet they were already in talks for being acquired and not open sourcing Arc was one of the conditions.

Who knows what Atlassian will do with it, but I did find it a bit frustrating that in the Atlassian blog announcing the acquisition, they showcase images of Arc when they're specifically talking about Dia. The two browsers do not have UI parity, and much of what I loved about Arc would need to be recreated in Dia.

This was so fun; thank you! Congrats on getting it licensed!

Am I interpreting this correctly? It sounds like the lawsuit is filed on behalf of at least 6,632 employees. $28,000,000 distributed amongst that many is roughly $4,221.95. That's not even accounting for the law firm's stake. That seems like an absurdly low amount to pay to folks to say "sorry we screwed your career over".

Google can and absolutely should be paying these people more in compensation.

Yes. They became billionaires overnight.

The marketing design approach feels very off to me. You barrage me with an annoying scrolling marquee showing me the most abstract, unrecognizable logos telling me I should trust you because they do. 10+ companies on board feels rather small.

You said AI-driven analysis to identify logs, but I'm already skeptical of AI doing tasks like this, and you obfuscate it further by not actually showing me how it works, just another generic abstract marketing design graphic.

I dunno. It just seems like vaporware-as-a-service from the design vibes.

I probably am misremembering then and just use the dean as a generalized title. This was almost 13 years ago. This person was definitely in charge of curriculum, I remember that much, so probably not the dean. Thanks for correcting my misuse of the word.

The fact that you hide behind a throwaway account to condescend to others is proof in irony that you're the one bringing quality down here.

I won't deign to respond to anything else you say, but you should understand how encompassing software engineering is and that it clearly at some point has to evolve to account for modern needs.

That was just an example, not strictly what I was there for. I just pointed it out to the dean as something that was always mentioned, but glanced over like "ew, this doesn't matter so much".

It, in fact, ended up mattering a lot.

University-taught computer science curriculum is going to have to change drastically.

Disclaimer: I am not a CS degree holder. But I did attempt a masters in software engineering and it was really eye-opening to me to see how far behind "traditional" curriculum was when compared to real-world opportunities. My university completely overlooked things like front-end web development and a host of other modern needs at the time; when I spoke to the dean, he recommended the school might just not be a fit.

So if we're leaving students behind for AI outputs and shutting the door in favor of the old guard, what happens to the new wave? Will schools train them to get to the point of working with systems enough to call bullshit on AI? Are schools even teaching students AI right now?

I ask sincerely just because when I pushed for change in curriculum, I basically was shown the door that led to me dropping out and (thankfully) landing a gig at a startup that opened up another (better) door for me.

Ugh. Can't someone please just let us customize how we want to experience the Internet? It seems like a right to repair law. But right to remove. If I know how to take out ads and I want them gone, I should be free to do so.

I think that we'll need to adopt network-level filtering if we want to outsmart the browsers. I haven't looked back since adopting NextDNS and configuring my router to filter all traffic through it. It does a great job of stripping ads out of all my devices connected to it, and that's something I don't mind paying a few bucks for a year (I think it's like $19/year).

Alfred does a lot more beyond just searching.

> - There's still no good window manager for macOS. Rectangle is as close as it gets, but it's not good IMO because it only works on non full size windows. (the solution is just get ninja-like with three finger swipe, and endure using the mouse/trackpad more than you'd prefer)

I use Magnet and it does the job well. If you're familiar with it, I'd love to know why you don't think it's a good window manager. Or do you just mean there's not a good NATIVE window manager for the OS?

They want these people to quit. In a company that basically selects for survival of the fittest and operates on constant evolution of talent and speed, do you really think they honestly care about disabled employees?

I was skeptical of LLM search until I saw Arc Search in action with its "browse for me" functionality.

Conversely, the M3 supposedly has better multi core performance? How is that possible?

Wait, so you're just not eating every other day?

The manifestation of "in a rush to feel connected at all times, we're losing sight of what's right in front of us".

What happens to the pilot in error in this case? Learn from mistake and keep flying? Grounded? Fired?
