<p>I like these being submitted.<p>Twitter still does have quite a lot of unique content that either appears there first or isnt accessible anywhere else at all, unlike paid article websites, previews without logging in actually work for the most part, and xcancel as you said is a thing. Which extension are you using for redirects?</p>

<p>i think its all about caring and knowing what you want to make and willing to iterate on the result until it is actually good. If you want the ai to do your job for you its probably not going to work, but if youre really good at using its advantages you almost certainly will be winning</p>

<p>Yeah and also they still want to get at least some sales on the mac studios and mac pros with ultra chips, 256gb m5 max wouldve straight up killed both of those products.<p>We can have nice things but nobody is going to hurt themselves to give out things that are the very best possible, theres probably a lesson in this</p>

<p>laptops seem kinda solved now? for every cpu vendor and every os theres now a great option that just, works, so everyone can just use what they like and not be at a disadvantage due to not knowing the latest developements in the space, or due to habitual preference. Good type of boring</p>

<p>I mean, they had to make them good because of the new cpu architecture, but since the emulation worked so well and overall adoption was really fast it now is a problem for them as a company. A really good problem to have though</p>

<p>Curious about that as well.<p>They seem to market it as a technological advancement, which it is, but rather than being excited im actually worried about hidden latencies that could come with that approach. 
Have you found any interesting info on that yet?</p>
