The "old" ChatGPT app is now called ChatGPT "Classic", and new features may be available only in the new app.
So the separate "Codex" app is being sunset. I'm not thrilled about this, since the new monolithic app is monstrous at close to 2GB, and takes longer to launch, and I can't easily see my chat history.
Fair, but what about names that are specific enough to give an attacker a clue to a potential attack surface, like "authelia.example.com" - now they know you've likely got an Authelia setup, and can start digging for exploitable CVEs etc. I'm in the process of removing all my individual certs and replacing with a wildcard cert served by Traefik. Is that a bad idea?
I was also a fan of Hex, but development has stalled. I tried FluidVoice (found it buggy) and Handy (had problems with hotkey) before eventually landing on TypeWhisper[0].
It works very well, and has a few more bells and whistles without feeling bloated.
For the last 6 decades or so, a computer was a machine assumed to operate with high levels of precision and deterministic outputs. Such precision enabled spacecraft like Voyager 1 & 2 to travel billions of miles from Earth, staying on course, semi-operational and sending telemetry- 50 years after launch.
Now we have machines that, when asked to produce a paperclip, may instead produce a butter knife, or a banana, or maybe just a "try again later".
These modern "tools" are quite a different animal. They're more akin to roulette wheels that generate massive amounts of heat and CO2.
Oh man that's nice. When I was in high school slugging along with a Mac LC, I dreamt of having the amazing Quadra 700 with its superior speed and graphics. Crazy that the price was $5,700 ($14K in 2026) and you just picked it out of the trash.
I wish there was built in iSCSI initiator support on macOS. All of the halfway decent third-party ones either broke many OS versions ago (GlobalSAN) or cost a small fortune ($250 for Atto Xtend)
"They" is 1 guy (George Nachman) who has tirelessly maintained this app in his spare time for 15 years. This is an arms race that's simply impossible for solo devs or even small teams to win. It's going to have a real chilling effect. I've seen a few popular open source projects take themselves private recently (eg cal.com) due to this.
I don't have statistics on that, but I can say that Verizon FIOS NG-PON2 service in the US (which is what I have) does not offer native V6, so yes, sadly I am forced to use a tunnel broker in 2026.
Is it possible to disable Safe Browsing AND also not have to manually click to confirm that "yes, I actually do want to keep the file I just downloaded, thank you" every. single. time.
