The macbook is quite easy to repair, it's just insanely expensive because they made the choice that, for user experience, they attach the keyboard to the machines body.

You can have ease of repair and build quality, but then you give up portability I guess (bulky and heavy). And also cost goes up

I'm perfectly happy with my "vanilla" macbook. Runs Baldurs Gate 3 and my final fantasy ps2 emulator just fine, and even trackmania was quite easy to get installed and runs well.

Can't comment on that hash thing, but I don't see why that would be a problem? It's not linked to your name or something. Windows does a ton of things too that I find inexcusable, such as changing settings or permissions after updates, those have an actual impact on my daily experience with these things

In our office, we'd definitely need the enterprise version for compliance reasons, not because of the features. That's about 14/user/month.

At a workforce of roughly 2500, that's a 4million+ yearly cost for something that is comparable to something you can get without that pricetag. It's no competition at all at that point. Think about it, would you be willing to ask your boss to pay 4 million so you can have a different chat app? No matter how much more ergonomic and friendly and intuitive it is.

Regulators should be all over it. EU has tried, but unsuccesfully, since it was lawyers who came up with the mitigation.

Partners get 300-400k and senior partners get closer to 600-800

In our experiments, we see a surprising benefit to rewriting blocks to use more tokens, especially long lists etc..

E.g. compare these two options

"The following conditions are excluded from your contract - condition A - condition B ... - condition Z"

The next one works better for us:

"The following conditions are excluded from your contract - condition A is excluded - condition B is excluded ... - condition Z is excluded"

And we now have scripts to rewrite long documents like this, explicitly adding more tokens. Would you have any opinion on this?

I consider it a good first attempt, but indeed hope for a sort of mcp2.0

They could succeed where Alexa failed. A free user can even bring in more than a paid user if you look at some platforms like spotify, where apparently there is a large chunk of free users generating more income through ads than if they would pay

And that's the point here: value is handicapped by the web interface, and we are stuck there for the foreseeable future until the tech teams get their priorities straight and build decent data integration layers, and workflow management platforms.

On Thinking it tells me I should drive if I want to wash it, or walk if it's because I work there or if I want to buy something at the car wash shop.

On Pro it's like a sarcastic teenager: Cars are notoriously difficult to wash by dragging a bucket back and forth.

Technically correct, but did catch me offguard lol.

Yes we have hundreds of identical Microsoft and Aws policies, but it's the only way. Checksum the full zip and sign it as part of the contract, that's literally how we do it

If they'd just drive 70 on cruise control, they'd be faster, less traffic jams and less fuel use...

I really would like to see some mandatory use of cruise control on some stretches of highway, even if just as an experiment

So yeah, it really is completely broken internally. monopoly abuse to the fullest, we weren't even allowed by our CTO to do an RFP with potential copilot competitors, and the license cost for 5000 users is insane

Sure I get gemini for free now for a year since I have bought a pixel, but I have no intention to renew, I'll likely just leech of the ones my employer pays for
