I think I know why GM and the others fear CarPlay and Android Auto, but it's just so dumb to me.

It makes sense for companies like Netflix to shy away from the Apple "walled garden." They want to deliver a unique experience with exclusive content, not just be another content supplier to the Apple experience. They don't want to wind up like the record companies.

But car manufacturers? There's a whole lot of stuff going on w.r.t. your driving experience. Like driving. Hundreds of physical things. Etc. Unlike the media industry I can't think of a future where the car companies eventually find themselves subsumed by allowing CarPlay integration.

Then again, I can't tell what's the main fear... if car companies are scared of getting iTunes'd, or if they really just want that revenue from 5% of car buyers paying for the Premium GM Infotainment Experience Recurring Subscription or whatever.
How tiresome
Yeah, its *super interesting* at first, but once the novelty fades you aren’t left with much.

That said, nowhere on earth had better driving directions on apps since people will notice the bugs on the drive into work and fix them. ;-)

I think that nothing has harmed the internet more than the online marketing industry.
And what happened?
Didn't think our boy karl marx would be relevant here lol but yeah that's a very commodity-fetishistic way to look at the value of AI/assumes that the value of the generative models is that they generate output that has some sort of market value as a commodity by itself. Makes way more sense to think of it as a service than a means of production. I'm not gonna pay for an ai generated image, but would I pay for access to better internet search, or document understanding, or for help understanding/writing code in new codebases? Yeah I would. Clearly there's enough people that haven't cancelled their chatgpt subscription that the value is greater than zero. Including negative externalities net value might even end up negative, which would make it hard to argue it has little influence elsewhere if it has a negative influence on e.g. artist pay or electoral democracy.
This game got weirdly very popular among kids of a very specific generation, here in Portugal.

The "Magalhães", an Intel Classmate variant that was available to school kids between 2008 and 2010 for a price between 50€ and 0€ (depending in social security status), came bundled with both Windows and a Portuguese Linux distro, which shipped with SuperTux by default.

It's good to remind ourselves and occasionally others that if the answer to a problem in a domain we don't have much knowledge on seems simple. Chances are the people with the knowledge are well aware of your answer and know why it won't work.

It's App Store. It all started with the App Store.
Do you really not see how a car is a much greater departure from their core expertise than the iphone? They were already making handheld electronic devices well before the iPhone. And they were making computers pretty much for the whole history of the company. Ipod touch was a natural evolution of the ipod and the iphone was basically just an incremental improvement on the ipod touch.

The closest thing they've made to a car is those wheels for the mac pro.
Having a conversation with someone who provides a perspective or experience I do not have is automatically a positive ROI in my book.
For some collection of non-abelian anyons, the total state of the system will depend on how those anyons have been moved around each other. Thus, the paths encode a computation and the state, as measured by anyon fusion, is the result of the computation.

Browserless could implement limits on their side, for example, allow only 1 parallel request to IP/domain. This way there will be no significant load, but the data will be scraped.

Yes. But NASA money is available to others, too. Elon is not.
I find emacs moves plenty fast for my human brain. Including magit, anything to do with git slows my brain to a crawl anyway.

I get that it might be slow if you're trying to use it to automate something complex, as some part of a server, etc. but it more than keeps up with me.
I think the AI generated content looks superior to unboxing videos.

The problem is that generative AI is competing with clickbait and it turns out it does the job cheaper.

Oh wow, thank you sharing your dad's nursery. I am going to purchase some germinated seeds from him for the university greenhouse collection that I manage.
A reminder that “social media” is not just a bunch of gigacorps. I have a small Mastodon server that I host as a hobby. I’ve collected $0.00 in gross revenue from it; not net, but gross. I read the Florida law as best I could and didn’t find any carve outs for small, non-profit, personally run social media.

Well, nuts to that. I can and will censor whatever I and my users decide we don’t want to see. The people we censor are free to download and install their own copies and make their own moderation decisions based on their own community norms.

It’s ridiculous that we’re being held to the same standard as Facebook and X. And if that means these laws shouldn’t then apply to Facebook and X, then so be it. I’m not willing to give up my own 1st amendment rights to punish someone else.
I can't wait for Apple's "emperor has no clothes" moment. Their status as industry leader has caused untold amounts of damage.
It seems like this is happening on Sony's side. It seems that most or all of their AAA games are available on Steam now. https://store.steampowered.com/publisher/playstationstudios

(And I have to say they are probably my favourite big publisher. No extra DRM, online requirements or anything. Just a custom EULA)

> ”But, not a fan of touch screen order kiosks.”

It’s nice to order at a counter if you know exactly what you want. But I like the kiosks if it’s a place/menu I’m not very familiar with: gives you more time to browse and decide what you want rather than gawking at an overhead menu, holding up the line, and feeling pressured into ordering the first thing that comes to mind…

It takes balls to cancel a project that has probably taken large resources and is probably at late stages of development. Or it was going to be too late and too expensive.
What do you mean? It's accessible.

I honestly don't get why people post these sort of context free questions, how do you expect us to know what you're thinking?
My .emacs and usage is pretty much the same as it was 20 years ago. I should probably take a look at what's new.

OK that's an exaggeration, I have dabbled with org-mode and use magit, but really for editing code, it's pretty much same as it ever was for me.
They already run compute for siri for voice to text. So they could in theory still provide an LLM backed siri service for free for their customers/users.
That behavior is the result of nervousness and being in the stressful and unpleasant situation of having to do interviews at all. I'm not sure there's a lot that can be done to reduce it, honestly.

Elon is busy tweeting cringy memes so it's not him doing the hard work.
My situation is different. I lost the love of my life and felt lost and alone. Even with the support of good friends and family.

But that said, there’s alot of philosophy and other things to help. Aeschylus said “Happiness is a choice that requires effort at times.” Another relevant quote is that the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the next best is today.

You won’t get what you wanted, but live in the present and enjoy what you can have. I’d give anything to get my wife back, but that’s not reality. The next best thing to live today and find joy.
That's probably because making participation in a specific political establishment compulsory is authoritarianism and it, by design, will face less vocal dissent

Nothing .. I was wrong.

Switching only wins when Monty avoids opening the car door. If Monty opens a random door, then switching makes no difference.

The flaw in my logic above for the random case is that it's 1/3 chance orig pick was right, 1/3 chance unopened door, plus 1/3 chance that Monty opened the door with the car behind meaning you never even got a choice to switch.

I would totally buy a (corrected!) Apple Pascal T shirt after the poster.
Yes, I also don’t work I computer vision but played with it just a tiny bit—I think somebody saying they worked in SLAM and are moving to a Vision Pro project is not a huge leak or anything. It is like a chemist saying they work in lithium ion batteries and are making the same move. A very broad and fundamental concept.

Maybe the fact that they were moved away from the car project would have been a leak though, depending on what else they said.
Dope project!

That's what we nowadays call helping a democratic nation defend its citizens from a fascist invasion and literal massacres of civilians, huh.
I get real Citizen Kane vibes from the tweets of select billionaires.
Not sure we're referring to the same "antics". You cannot deny that Elon has changed as a person ever since he got hooked on Twitter. A lot of his personality and how he acts these days is very much focused on trying to get the most likes. Pre-Twitter "fame", it's true that he disregarded what others thought, but he also wasn't so focused on maximizing his likes either. Twitter was like heroine for him, and he now lives for the dopamine rush of going viral by pandering to lowest common denominator. He's far more focused on seeking attention.
> nativecomp is pretty much a gimmick

I wouldn't go so far as to call native-comp feature a gimmick, but you probably won't see noticeable UI performance improvements with it. On the Mac, --with-metal support may give it a bit snappier feel but it depends on the hardware, you may try both, with and without and compare.

Matter of fact, Emacs with native-comp flag may give you an impression of things being super slow right after the startup, because it often has to recompile packages asynchronously, the process of which you can observe in *Async-native-compile-log* buffer, it's normal for Emacs built with native-comp to be a bit laggy for a minute or two at the startup, but you don't have to restart Emacs very often. native-comp benefits can be observed when using things like lsp-mode, where it brings some good perf improvements, sometimes it's worth it, but you also have to expect things to break, and quite often, native-comp relies on libgccjit, and MacOS updates often break the toolchain dependencies, and it can be highly annoying if you like to update Emacs packages often, especially when using something like Doom or Spacemacs, but it's not Emacs' fault. It's great that we have the option to disable native-comp completely without having drastically reduced performance, most of the time, you won't even notice it.

Also, one thing I always recommend doing on the Mac, which is absolutely unrelated to Emacs is this:

```bash
# "Set a blazingly fast keyboard repeat rate, "
defaults write NSGlobalDomain KeyRepeat -int 1
# "Set a shorter Delay until key repeat"
defaults write NSGlobalDomain InitialKeyRepeat -int 10
# disable accents on key hold
defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false
```

Reboot after setting that and trust me, you'd thank me later. Emacs would feel like it's on steroids. And remember, don't ever change repeat rate in Preferences dialog, it resets it to the values acceptable for muggles. Don't be one, be the keyboard wizard, let your machine fly.
> Poor Dracula, he never had a chance – not against the double-reinforced power of a Catholic Modernity.

To be fair, he hoarded wealth, drank blood, and sought eternal life. If I were in a room with Dracula and his enemies, and you told me to point at the Catholics, I'd be a bit stumped.

Agree to disagree. IMHO, there are more people who thrive on internet conflict than thrive on being ignored.

It takes self control, but walking past the problem is sometimes the more effective solution.

"Man, that asshole on the Internet disagreed with me. I'm going to write a detailed rebuttal of why they're the asshole."

"Hunh, I wonder why I occasionally get down voted and no one ever responds to me? And also, the responses I do get are a lot nicer in tone than mine..."

The ticks per second thing is very interesting because of a something weird i encountered the other day - i suddenly realised seconds are WAY faster than they used to be.

I play music so have a pretty good feel for rhythm and i distinctly remember the clock in a family members house ticking each second being way, way slower as a kid. Slept there the other day and it was fast as hell. So incredibly weird. I'm sure my memory of the BPM is much slower than the feeling from today.

Sitting looking at the digital clock right now two seconds seem close to one as a kid.

I agree with you about markets as such being meaningless in the end because they're fundamentally social processes. But as technology makes efficiency in trading less reliant on humans, I think the social layer will disappear.

Again, I'm no expert in trading, and I'm sure you understand the processes better than I do. I know that automation has been a big part of trading for a long time. But is fully automated and fully explainable AI really that far off? As in unattainable within the next decade? We're all guessing here, but judging on recent progress, I would bet that AI will be able to do everything a human trader could do, including providing the rationalization in a comprehensible and convincing way to managers, within 10 years at the very least, probably sooner. I would bet that AI can even do a better job of hitting the specific points that will be convincing to target the decision makers before that.

The focus on AI in the stock market is already evidence of that. Right now, it's the people boosting AI that are convincing investors to put their money into it. And once they're invested, they're going to be more likely to be convinced by confirmation bias, therefore more likely to listen to the advice generated by the product that they already invested in. That's a cycle that will be hard to break.

Yeah its kind of insane how many times Apple can pull this trick yet we still get people saying "they're late, they look like morons, Apple is finished".

Apple can arrive last to a product market. They can take six years of iterative releases to refine their vision on a product market. They will still dominate that market. Cue the "they can't keep getting away with this" meme, because this happens with EVERY PRODUCT THEY RELEASE and these people still keep thinking this time will be different.

The whole "Siri sucks" thing is also hilarious, because you have to ask: So? So what? Apple, Google, and Amazon invested billions upon billions into these systems (Amazon especially). Then LLMs came around and are absolutely eating their same lunch ten times faster. Apple, again, looks like a genius (intentionally, or far more likely, not). They didn't over-invest. They're not laying off a thousand people from the Alexa division [1], or removing a ton of Google Assistant features [2], or releasing hardware no one is buying. They built exactly enough of a voice assistant to be competitive throughout the 2010s, and now its time for the next generation of all these things anyway.

I don't hate him, I simply find his views on most (?) topics reprehensible, naive and/or delusional. I think he's doing great harm to his businesses by oversharing them. I particularly despise his pathetic bothsidesing of the war in which fascists are invading and murdering my relatives in my country of birth.
> Note: There are some dumb stories floating out there about Reddit CEO Steve Huffman getting paid $193 million last year. You can ignore those in general since they are really about stock and options awards with a long vesting period. And you can specifically ignore them for this story since those costs aren't included in the R&D totals.

stock and options are both forms of compensation, in that they can be converted into simoleans. maybe not at a fixed rate, maybe not a sure thing. but to ignore them? did spez pay for the article just for that blurb?

Show HN: Aviator FlexReview – An Alternative to Codeowners
Excited to share FlexReview – a flexible way to manage code reviews.

Recognizing that not all code reviews are the same, with FlexReview you can:

- dynamically assign code reviewers using domain expertise, code complexity and review load
- set SLOs and track response times for code reviews (separate for internal and external teams)
- expand code ownership for improved knowledge sharing

Would love to hear any feedback. Check it out: https://www.aviator.co/flexreview
It is nice to know that I am special ;-). Do I get extra points if I told you that I do it all on a custom mechanical plank keyboard with blank keycaps? Of course, I don't use emulation. My windows manager is exwm, so I do everything in emacs.
Completely agreed. Trust and credibility are harder to prove for startups trying to contract to large health organizations, which is why a HIPAA compliance report or active monitoring from a 3rd party can be really helpful. Some large hospitals even turn away calls from startups for this exact reason. Compliance is table stakes. It's important to address HIPAA early and be able to attest to your compliance and security.
