I just launched PWA support for Booklet [1].

The feedback I keep getting from users is "Wait, Apple really lets you do this?"

Push notification access outside of the App Store controls is insanely powerful. Many apps don't need to be native code - but go through the rigmarole to get access to push notifications.

I think we'll see a lot more PWAs this year, and along with that - I think Apple will start to roll back some of the features like they're doing here in the EU.

> When people perceive one school to be better than another

Often there's more to it than just perception. My parents moved to a smaller suburb so my brother and I could attend schools with higher standardized test scores, lower class sizes, less violent incidents, more extracurricular activities, and ultimately _a lot_ more funding. Both districts were public. They made this decision looking at publicly accessible data in the 80s/90s.

Looking back, it was objectively one of the best decisions they made for our future... if not the best.

Sure - address fraud is very common in regards to getting your kid to a better education opportunity but when there are stark, vast differences between districts I have a hard time blaming people. Especially given my anecdotal experience.

The idea of making agents like CrewAI easier to quickly prototype is great.

It’s unclear though from the landing page how this is different from Make. All of the examples are things that could be done using the OpenAI node in Make / Zapier / n8n.

It's built on QuickJS.
I think the confusion stems from mislabeling and the cultural associations that some people have with it. In the US, the term socialist usually means something bad, while in Europe all modern states are build around some concept of democratic socialism.

If I say progressive, some people here might identify that with some mouth foaming marxist that will apologize any non free-market dictator.

Label progressive = human rights , not economic policy.

Any suggestion for a term that works better in your habitat is welcome!

That's my approach as well, but I had the same number calling me for 3 weeks and I finally answered. It was my electric company, something had gone wrong with a payment.

They have my email address, they send me txts all the time, but apparently collections is still making phone calls. Had to be the dumbest thing I'd seen. Once I answered and found out the issue, I paid the bill properly, but I wonder how far it would have gone before they cut off my power, while they kept sending me emails and txts about things that have nothing to do with my bill.
I have a bit respect that Apple is technically allowing WebXR support on the Vision Pro - behind a Safari Flag for now but still it's there and a step in the right direction towards a less restrictive walled garden.
Fitbit was a fitness tracker that later adopted more smartwatch features -- but things like Pebble (early 2013), Android Wear (now Wear OS) (spring 2014), Samsung's Galaxy Gear (fall 2013) all already existed. Now were any of them as good as Apple Watch -- aside from Pebble (which could never have the same level of integration as Apple could offer for iOS, but still did a very good job), I would say no -- but I would also argue Apple Watch was fairly medicore outside of its core notification features at first too.

WatchOS until like fall 2016 really wasn't that great. The third-party apps were all garbage and we didn't even get "native" apps until six months after the device launched and that original Apple Watch (the Series 0) was woefully underpowered for what it needed to be. I bought one and don't regret spending $800 on the stainless steel variant with the modern buckle combo, but it also got like two years of software support, and even the support was limited compared to even the low-cost Series 1 released a year later.

I think Apple made the right trade-off here, but the external battery seems like the feature of the Vision Pro that will make us look back from the future and shake our heads.

Maybe I’m dense but I don’t really understand this jump to [shakes hands like Doc Brown] “the future”. We’re in Magic Leap’s future right now, how did the physics and battery constraints turn out for them?

If your car gets stolen, and the police find it, they will call you from a phone number that's not in your contacts. If you don't pick up, you won't realize that your stolen car has been recovered a couple miles from your house, and if you show up there in 30 minutes you can drive it back home, but if you don't, the police will send it to a towing yard, which will require you to go through 24 hours of paperwork with the police to obtain a release and then pay the towing yard $1,000+ to tow and store your car.

If you live in an area of low crime, though, maybe it'll be fine not to answer phone calls from numbers that aren't in your phone.

What I've seen from that project in the past does not fill me with confidence, and nothing I've seen since has changed that impression. Even if the project results in working hardware (which is uncertain), its performance is unlikely to be on par with expectations.

There are an infinite number of ways to do anything, you can't try them all. Rules of thumb are necessary for making progress.
You're only minorly wrong in that they don't sell access to the behavioral data [1] , but you do realize that you sound absolutely unhinged about it, right? Is HN surveilling my post because I typed here and pressed the 'reply' button?

I've never convinced someone of flaws in ethics by framing the perpetrator as a big bad boogeyman to the nth degree. It's unproductive self-satisfaction.

RoboKiller has "answer bots" that do what you said. They just keep saying things like "hello? I'm sorry, I don't understand" etc.
The way I read it, he moved on from ikiwiki to his "newest approach", which looks to me like regular hand-written html+css. And why not, it's just a bunch of words, no frameworks necessary. This guy has software running on Mars so making a good old '90s style website by hand seems appropriate.
WOW finally I encounter somebody with the same use case as me in the wild. I thought that would never happen. Except I stream off my 2007 Macbook instead, which is basically just a NAS to me at this point. (I actually do own a Synology NAS but have not integrated it with this existing system)

I hate the UI on Apple Music enough that I don't use iTunes Home Share anymore, but instead run an instance of MPD and then just control playback through ncmpcpp. But to modify tags, add ratings, etc. I have a Screen Sharing session open to the 2007 machine to use iTunes. I have an ongoing project to write a web app that would free me from iTunes altogether, but it will be a while before that's usable.

I don't remember if I ever encountered the disconnection issues you did with a modern machine + home sharing with an older one. The thing that drove me the most nuts was that I could not use home sharing if I was using my headphones over bluetooth. They had to be plugged in for home sharing to work.

My favorite trick was when I figured out how to get the advertisements from home sharing forwarded over VPN, so I could use it when I was on work travel. Unfortunately that broke when I upgraded from Mavericks to High Sierra and I never figured out how to fix it.
Another in a long line of ways that they've been damaging the web ecosystem.

I can only hope that some day Apple/Safari are seen the same way we look back on IE6. For now, it saddens me that the very people that should be advocating for a healthy web are the ones that will choose to defend it or justify why this is a perfectly acceptable thing to do.

Regarding the comments, I see very few inflammatory or divisive comments. The average comment here seems to be poking fun at the fact that robocalls are already illegal, and that banning the more specific "AI robocall" seems like security theater.

Excellent review of the device that doesn't pull any punches and isn't dripping with honey.

I found [0-2] the AVP to be an excellent piece of hardware that is unfortunately limited by software, a common refrain for Apple's iOS/iPad OS. I have no doubt that I will buy a future version of this device as the software gets better, the cameras/passthrough improves, the price drops, and/or the software allowed to run is opened up.

I absolutely loved playing with the AVP but right now it's just an infinite-screen iPad with window management. I can't work on an iPad and likewise I can't work in this. "Mac Virtual Display!" I hear you screaming, and while impressive, the blurriness of the MVD is something I can't put up with, especially while I have 3 external monitors available to me. If I traveled more and/or only used the laptop screen I might feel differently but I don't.

So for now I will probably return mine unless some "killer app" comes out before my return window closes. I applaud Apple for releasing this now though, it's not fully fleshed out but it won't be until 3rd party developers are able to use it and get a feel for how best to build apps for it. Right now the AVP is a dev kit++ in my eyes.

Yeah, I'm sure cloud streaming Activision games in 2024 definitely would have saved 2000 employees' jobs. Especially with the next statement (from IGN):

>Additionally, a new filing by Microsoft lawyers today claims that Activision "was already planning on eliminating a significant number of jobs while still operating as an independent company." The layoffs, therefore, cannot be attributed to the merger, they argue.

I don't exactly like the 2nd defense of "well Activision was laying off people anyway". But it's clear this is the age of plutocracy, so the reason doesn't really matter.
On the other hand an American (migrant) doing an about face about a group of people based on preconceived notions is completely expected.

> At least Nintendo's names are kind of cute. It's still silly, but at least Wii or Switch is kind of endearing.

Those were not the ones I called out as bad. Those are good because when they came out they were unique and memorable.

Let me list out the following consoles:

Nintendo DS

Nintendo DS lite

Nintendo DSi

Nintendo DSi XL

Nintendo 3DS

Nintendo 3DS XL

Nintendo 2DS

New Nintendo 3DS

New Nintendo 3DS XL

New Nintendo 2DS XL

There's technically only 2 generations of Nintendo consoles in there, but the DSi had some exclusive physical games that were sold in store, and couldn't be played on the DS. And the new 3DS had some games that couldn't be played on the original 3DS.
How, in the utter fuck, does this get past app review?

It’s not like it’s an edge case either, there are hundreds of apps with obviously and blatantly misleading logos, brands, names etc. Just see ChatGPT / OpenAi for example.

I have taken to sharing direct links to Apps in the app store now when recommending things to non-technical friends/family, because I’ve lost all confidence that they will find the “correct” app anymore just by searching, and not one of hundreds of highly dubious clone apps.

Difficult to argue against the recent actions of the EU when the supposed benefits of the walled garden are crumbling anyway…
I've watched 3 shows on Apple TV+ - Extrapolations, The Morning Show, and Ted Lasso. All of them start very promisingly (as in, the premise is good, the initial setup of actors/sets/etc. is promising, there is lots of potential ways it could go) but they're all superficial, get very predictable, and then the quality steeply goes downhill after a point. All three could have been way better, and had vastly more promise than what they delivered. It was enough to make me cancel the service.
I think the FCC is splitting unimportant hairs. All non-opt-in robo calls should be considered a criminal attack on the communications infrastructure.

But of course, this is considered an important part of political campaigning, and probably no one appointed to chair the agency will let it happen.
I see you are one of the heads of sudo for Windows, now based on your comment I see sudo for Windows with non-so unhopeful eyes. The comment about 88 lines PS code is about sudo.ps1 on the repo, thanks for clarifying. I'd like if more consideration is taken over sudo for Windows, as the MSDN docs relate: sudo at the moment has a clear distinction with runas and you must be the one who chooses what's best, I can infere the intention is not replacing runas, but then there's two ways to the same goal and each one with its differences. It's a similar situation than it was with WMIC and WMI for PS, being this case as a longer-standing approach, WMIC is deprecated but you can still use it if you want, however WMI for PS has the same functionality as WMIC and still offering benefits over WMIC, ultimately WMIC will be removed from future Windows releases. I'd be less confusing if this route is planned for runas and sudo
My other guess is that it's one of those things where it only connects to actual person if you say something. I could try actually talking to see what happens but now that I read on this thread that they record you for replay maybe not.
But only to complete a winning position.

Even The Verge acknowledges:

Oh yes, I have my eyes on the future and I am bloody unhappy about it.
But the early USSR was both authoritarian and progressive, with the suppression of nobility privileges, strong improvements to women's rights, legalization of homosexuality, etc.

This is close to a no true Scotsman argument; virtually no older-than-30y.o. political movement would check all the boxes to be qualified as such.
Usually I deserve downvotes, but why would anyone downvote this?
> Can you still see individual pixels if you look for them?

I could not. The passthrough is slightly grainy and "smears" a bit when you move your head but the displays themselves are amazing. I couldn't see pixels when I ran native visionOS apps. The Mac Virtual Display is slightly blurry but again, that wasn't the fault of the displays as evidenced by the sharp UI of AVP apps.
