Wait this keyboard doesn’t support swipe typing? Hmmmm

Why the use of “but” here? One does not get in the way of the other

You think everyone is silly for finding this policy dumb?

Right?

Who’s name-calling here?
jama211··on 27-year-old Apple iBooks can connect to Wi-Fi and download official updates
That’s my point. They were stating it like it was objective, so I countered with my subjective opinion.
jama211··on 27-year-old Apple iBooks can connect to Wi-Fi and download official updates
Indeed, I tried to not repeat their mistake of sounding like you’re speaking in objective terms.

Of course, it was fine. I was real glad they removed the full screen start menu at the time. I still prefer the look of 11.

You probably do, I thought I didn’t but if you just disable the warning about TPM 2.0 with a simple command it lets you install it just fine. Had no problems for years now.

It’s like you didn’t read the rest of my comment. However I can’t confirm. I wack that windows key on my keyboard and start typing all the time and can’t remember it ever opening the wrong thing.

Most useful apps refuse to run? I have an iPad Pro from 2016 and it runs everything I throw at it. Perhaps the air’s weaker hardware was always destined to struggle as time moves on. That being said I also have an iPad from 2011 which I can still use as a Spotify machine.

But true, they don’t have the flexibility of a laptop. They are however the longest lasting tablets I’m aware of.

Shouldn’t be too hard to come up with a new unique reasoning question

Yeah I keep maintaining a specific app I built with gpt 5.1 codex max with that exact model because it continues to work for the requests I send it, and attempts with other models even 5.2 or 5.3 codex seemed to have odd results. If I were superstitious I would say it’s almost like the model that wrote the code likes to work on the code better. Perhaps there’s something about the structure it created though that it finds easier to understand…

Because your opinion is in the minority

I feel the average HN user though might be a bad representation of the general population. Personally I prefer the aesthetic of windows 11 over 7, it’s about the ONLY thing I prefer about windows 11, but windows 7 looks extremely dated to me now.
jama211··on Fix the iOS keyboard before the timer hits zero or I'm switching back to Android
Yeah I’ve run into a few of these recently. I can’t work out if there’s just a few unhinged individuals on here or this is some kind of hyper-specific to HN trolling. Maybe a bit of both.

Accusing someone of a low effort dismissal and dismissing their comment as LLM written at the same time is quite the demonstration of both hypocrisy and instability.

Forgot you switched accounts my dude?
jama211··on AI adoption and Solow's productivity paradox
Exactly. So much terrible usage is out there and no one is talking about it. It takes skill to use, and I bet accountants were way slower when they were learning how to use spreadsheets for the first time too.

And you mixed childish pedantry with a general agreement.

jama211··on AI adoption and Solow's productivity paradox
Most people (and most businesses) aren’t making good quality code though. Most tools we use have horrible codebases. Therefore now the code can often be a similar quality to before, just done far faster.
jama211··on AI adoption and Solow's productivity paradox
I think it’s more likely that the same amount of work is getting done, just it’s far less taxing. And that averages are funny things, for developers it’s undeniably a huge boost, but for others it’s creating friction.

Ehh, there’s a style guide for what should be in each, you get used to it, but I’ll admit it’s not ideal.
jama211··on Fix the iOS keyboard before the timer hits zero or I'm switching back to Android
That’s ridiculous, that would drive me insane

That’s a lot of words to say “if I don’t like something it’s objectively wrong” - also your wild rant went on so long and on so many tangents surely I’m not supposed to take you seriously.

I’m sure there’s plenty you could find that would work. Or bobslist.com, don’t let your dreams be dreams.
