I run Windows daily at work on a 60Hz display. I recently got my son a gaming PC complete with a 144Hz monitor. I was genuinely confused why Windows itself “felt” so much better. Just dragging windows around seemed like magic. It’s not that the UI is lagging on my machine, it’s more the smoothness of things when they move around. It makes everything seem faster, despite us timing various things and finding no actual performance differences.

+ $4,000 to bump to 512GB from 96GB.

I had no idea Nord offered that and we’ve used them for years.

It literally says, “...anyone can RSVP, regardless of whether they have an Apple Account or Apple device.”

This might underestimate Apple consumerism (I include myself in that).

> “However, it is important to note that this does not impact our results,” Liu told National Post. “The levels of flame retardants that we found in black plastic household items are still of high concern, and our recommendations remain the same.”

Thanks for this! I have used macOS for ten years now and somehow I was unaware of this. This is such a useful feature, it’s a shame it’s not better documented.

QuickTime? The video stuff from Apple?

Is there a way to turn this off entirely? Something like <html autocomplete=“off”>? It’s rather annoying to have 1Password trying to fill my contact info into any form with a Name input. For example, Forum Name, Todo Name, etc.

It works well enough that I have Visual Studio running without issue. However, no one has been able to get SQL Server running.

They’ve done a great job getting people to accept the premise that your phone/iPad is somehow not a computer. Like Final Cut for iPad is a rental (aka subscription) while you can actually buy it Mac.

> We just don't like crap on our face.

This slightly reminds me of when my grandfather told me not to get into computers because no one wants to stare at a screen all day.

Maybe the next generation will have less resistance to the idea?

I’m confused why this is so impactful. If you have software devs, even if you don’t classify as R&D, you can deduct their full salaries, right?

Do you mind sharing how you use ollama in VS Code?

What happened to Notch?

I found the tooling to be quite nice. In my opinion, it’s better or equivalent to most popular languages (python, ruby). It’s definitely not full-on bumper rails/training wheels like a Microsoft IDE, but it’s obvious they’ve invested heavily in tooling early on.

Any real competition to OpenAI is welcome. However, I'm not too fond of fake humanness in these things. Fake politeness is fine, but saying things like, “Oh, my dear human, I have some juicy news for you!” is just cringe.

I think VR can enable human connection where it otherwise isn’t possible due to distance. Of course, it isn’t a full substitute for in-person interaction, but it doesn’t have to be either or. We can have a great remote connection via VR and still exist in the real world.

Dell SFF Systems I’ve looked at are huge. They are like 3-4x the size of a Pi 5. Is there a specific model that is more comparable in size to the Pi?

If sure that would void the warranty or some other consumer punishment.

I wish there was a law that products which data mine had to be free and it was illegal for paid products to do it.

I purposefully expose myself to alternate viewpoints from my own. It’s how to prevent the frog from boiling into an extremist (L or R) without noticing. I have enough conviction in my beliefs that I can read contradictory views without getting emotional. I don’t understand the desire to surround yourself with clones of yourself.

Pretty sure this is Kansas not Florida.

It makes me happy to see the future generations refusing to accept the magic of it all and instead pulling back the curtain. Excellent work!

As a side note, once OpenAI slurps up your work, the next ChatGPT might not have to lie so much.

Our root issue is Microsoft SQL Server refusing to install on Windows 11 ARM. If it did, we'd happily move to Windows 11.

If a system goes down when Meta experiences outages, can it be considered "on-premises"?

> It seems M Series won't get native support in parallels for Windows 10 or Windows Server 2022.

This seems to be a hole left from Apple’s move away from Intel. I’m part of the niche group of people running Windows on Mac (via VMWare Fusion & Parallels). We’ve been buying Macs for 10 years now and suddenly we don’t have a path forward with new Apple hardware.

We’re currently deciding between changing our development stack to not require Windows or to just move away from Apple.

Did he explicitly state that as the reason? I thought he said he didn’t want to be in an executive role.

This reminds me of a typical comment during the first Apple Watch release.

- “Too expensive” - “Who is this for?!” - “my $20 watch has 20x battery life” - ”This will obviously flop because no one I know wants to strap a screen to their wrist and carry it around all day” - ...and on and on.

I don’t have a guess as to whether this will flop or succeed, but I’m always amazed at how people are willing to announce publicly with confidence that a product they’ve never used will undoubtedly fail.

That sounds like a fantastic tool. You didn’t happen to open source any of your efforts did you? I’m planning to do something like this and any head start would be greatly appreciated.
