yes, but:

1. not anymore

2. That's the price you have to pay if you want the tool you like to have corporate buy-in

Logitech k380? Jesus Christ those round keys are ugly as unemployment.

This is the dumbest thing i’ve read this month.

Stopped reading after that.

The implicit amount of hate for DHH is almost at tinfoil hat levels.

1995 called, they want their lame hacking tecniques back

dumb example: it does computer chips (graviton cpus), it does backpacks and stationary (stuff under the "amazon basics" brand), it does editorial work (amazon self-publishing), it does satellite communications. oh and cloud computing and more and more stuff.

I feel what you write, but then again: every now and then i write small greasmonkey scripts to remove annoyances from webpages, and to do so i have to look at the html and the kind of trash you describe is already there.

Dario has been glorified unnecessarily. He's just like all the other people in the space: not good, not bad.

And keep in mind that when Dario was opposing AI usage by the US State he wasn't really opposing, he was just saying "not yet".

Weird to read this line when the author themselves explains earlier in the same article that mac os and apple’s storage controller do weird stuff with fsync and that data might not be durably written to disk.

I fixed that by using cursor the agent but not the UI.

I'm just running cursor in GNU Emacs via agent-shell (https://github.com/xenodium/agent-shell). Their cli client (aptly named "agent") supports ACP (agent client protocol) so the UI can be skipped altogether.

I know this sounds like a meme ("use x in emacs") but at this point at the very least i can keep my workflows and my UI all the same and focus on my work rather than "where did $company put $feature this month".

In the html5 camp the features appeared one by one and the tooling is still fragmented.

What happened between flash dying and html5 having a complete toolset is that interest died.

Reminds me about that time i was working at one of the very large cloud providers. I had to edit a script in a source code repository and somehow the direction was something like "download the correct jetbrains ide, connect it to the internal license server, install the 20 plugins to make it work with the internal source code service, the internal code review service, the internal build service, the internal this and the internal that".

Spent like two days installing half of the shit and losing myself among the infinity of wiki pages explaining how to configure this hyper-dimensional tetris.

Then i gave up and just opened good old gnu emacs on my cloud desktop. Thank god there was an internal emacs user group that had written a few major and minor modes to work with the internal tooling.

I was done setting everything up in like one hour.

I unironically spent two years and a half working in gnu emacs running in a screen session, and it was much more productive than whatever jetbrains stuff they were recommending.

Chances are that token prices will go down, but chances also are that the AI bubble pops and all of a sudden all these companies will either have to make a buck out of the inference or go bankrupt.

Getting your own hardware just grants you stable pricing.

funnily enough, if it was possible to find the source code of that plugin somewhere, i could probably tell some LLM to cook up some tool to find all such emails and extract the files.

Real life?

My macbook neo with 8gb memory is faster and snappier than my shit-tier thinkpad X13G1 even when the X13 is not swapping at all.

I have 8c/16t Ryzen 7 along with 32GB ram over there, running GNU/Linux.

And somehow my macbook neo running a phone chip is much more usable (and battery lasts longer, and suspend actually works).

Reality is, the iphone 16 sharing the same chipset is perfectly functional for many more years to come, running similar workloads (for the same target audience): mainly web browsing.

If the iphone 16 can have the usual 3-6 years of useful life, then the macbook neo has the same -- FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE.

And I wrote this because I did actually get the macbook neo and I'm using it daily for the intended purpose (mostly web browsing) and it's just fine.

(if anybody is wondering: i have a large machine with 16c/32t and 128gb memory that i use remotely via ssh to do the "heavy stuff")

> This model might trigger planned obsolescence legislation in some jurisdictions.

That legislation is at least ten years late but apple is absolutely not the worst offender. There is the entire market of cheap android phones (and tablets) that barely last a year or two, and have essentially no guaranteed software upgrade. That should have triggered the legislation in the first place.

Why didn’t the author even take into consideration that Trump actions might have played a positive role?

The writings around economics is always this biased, it’s annoying.

Same goes with Argentina with Milei, for example: according to everyone a few years ago his initiatives should have been catastrophic… and yer nowadays Argentina is doing incredibly better and it’s essentially an unsung miracle success.
