Feels like yet another distraction. I personally believe Apple would benefit from a renewed focus. Product lines are growing, software too, software qualify is not doing well... this is the same pattern that got Apple into a mess before Jobs returned. Sure, things are not exactly the same but it feels like time is echoing here.

I am sure "BUT BUSINESS AND MONEY" is the answer but that feels like a cop out in this case.

News flash...now you can continue to work whilst brewing a coffee, walking the dog or taking a shit.

jfc no

Are you actually complaining about having an option available, if you want it?

How about they are pointing out a worrisome direction society might be taking, whereas work will infiltrate even more what used to be family or personal time, thus accelerating burnout?

I really love my moonlander, the added benefit of being able to customise it specifically to my own taste has been a total game changer.

It is hilarious when others try type on it, if they can manage to get their head around the split they still have no idea how to 'use' it due to my custom layers and bindings.

Unless MS opens up Xboxes for actual gamers (which won't happen). Pity, as Series X is very capable

That mini pc... one more nail in the coffin of the xbox hardware business. Ouch.

I bought all my sim racing setup for my xbox. It was short-sighted but optimized for a quick decision. Now I feel like I'm stuck with it and can't upgrade the setup forward. Everytime I see these comments, it's one more nail in my wallet :)

It is sad and interesting that the thousands (millions?) of blogs with few/zero readers will ultimately end up as a dot inside an LLM. Serving a wide audience just not in the original form, and without success/credit for the original author.

This. If the only point of blogging is to have some kind of portfolio when applying for a job (which I believe is valuable), then why publishing it at all?

I'm tempted to not publish my blog. Write it for myself, and send it as a portfolio when applying for jobs. So that those damn LLMs don't benefit from it.

What when it goes into GMail, Office 365, or some SaaS email filtering system or some SaaS email archiving or SaaS email backup system?

Patrick McKenzie has an interesting perspective on this:

I think this is underappreciated by almost all writers. You should be doing something very differently with your life if you assume that as opposed to a generation earlier or even five years ago, most of the direct effects of writing will be by people who actually read what you wrote.

And you have the opportunity, a near certainty that most "people" who read what you write in the future are not going to be humans. But humans will interact with what you write with an indirection layer in the middle.

Honestly if the LLM finds and reads my blog and its essence imprints itself permanently on a set of weights to live forever it's sort of cool and way better than just being abandoned!

I wonder - what is the path toward LLMs keeping around material that has since been removed from the internet? Do the companies building them keep the scraped content around forever?

This seems kinda flawed, I did the test a few times and got very different results, from 80% blue to 80% green.

Most people won't want to carry multiple devices, and I doubt people will sacrifice their existing phone.

When Apple implement something remotely similar to this into iOS (WWDC this year, anyone?), it will likely render products like this obsolete.

Honourable mention, Teenage Engineering crushing it with the hardware, as usual.
