What they do is actually a robbery of others' time, privacy, screen space, money, and freedom. All for profit.
Web will be locked down too, via secureboot stack browser integration (not -s, it's already actually monopolised to chrome only, as FF lives on full life support from Google).
Very sad how it was allowed to happen so easily.
I will share an unpopular opinion: thil will only make a freeworkforce for those projects who profit from using OSM. And the OSM has surprisingly unreliable data quality for walking around even in the popular tourist places like Tokyo or Kyoto, or New York. I've tried, and it's so worse than GMaps (or Bing) to being completely unusable. No work hours of Starbucks, no local dining cafe, no menu contributions.
It's great for the trail and hike outdiors, sure. But that's very different from the city map, as the nature featutes rarely change, not like city POIs.
- it did not work before because greed
- will not work anymore because AI
Is human science dead?
Negligent is a better word. Even opensource linux support for bluetooth is way better for the same devices.
Another example is filtered goods at the local electronics store webfront. Progressive loading without ability to go directly to page 7 wastes my time if I know that what I need is there as each load of 10 items takes time. But of course this pattern increases some shitty OKR in time-spent-on-website. Hate this.
AI generated skill?
Tokens are burnt, that's the most important part. And with more of the generated shitty code there will be more tokens spent in the future.
> W4ME Station brings unmodified WebAssembly cartridges to CLDC 1.1 / MIDP 2.0 devices, including feature phones from the mid 2000s.
300kb is a _way_ too huge for most of the feature phones.
It works well. For those who sell tokens.
As much as the (agentic) processes are more and more complex it guarantees that more tokens will be sold tomorrow. Sell tokens FTW!
On contrast, my linux laptop does not have any issue with the same headset and it gets connected instantly.
Marketing for huge bucks sounds like this.
You will own nothing and will be happy (that you are still alive). Probably.
