The entire administration has been operating on empty threats (see Brendan Carr's FCC speech policing). But most companies don't call them out on it, they just roll over

I didn't even see it was a brand blog. Sheesh

What a weird hill to die on

One thing people have pointed out is that well-specified (even if huge and tedious) projects are an ideal fit for AI, because the loop can be fully closed and it can test and verify the artifact by itself with certainty. Someone was saying they had it generate a rudimentary JS engine because the available test suite is so comprehensive

Not to invalidate this! But it's toward the "well-suited for AI" end of the spectrum

Very funny for this to come from the Warhammer studio, specifically

std::simd is so nice and easy to use, even as someone who's never done SIMD before. I wonder why it's stuck as nightly-only

I had something similar happen after sleeping a few times with my first-gen airpods pro. I think something must have gotten filled with earwax or something, because the noise cancelling got more and more broken and had more sudden sharp sounds until they were unusable

But since then I've had two pairs of airpods pro 2 and bought the 3s on the first day, and I've had no such issues with any of them, including sleeping, and flying twice with the 3's so far. YMMV

Super cool! I assume it plays nice with rust-analyzer?

I've heard that VSCode gets some special treatment and integrations with the typescript server that go deeper than normal LSP

I had the same experience and the same outcome. Zed was super fast for editing but slow for rich features, which on the net slowed me down compared with VSCode

Last week someone wrote a blog post saying "We dodged a bullet" because it was only a browser-based crypto wallet scrape

Guess we didn't dodge this one

I honestly don't think this administration wants economic allies

I feel like Dropbox has never figured out how to expand beyond folder sync. Which, it's still a fantastic folder-sync client and I'm a very happy customer of that product. But I mostly just have to swat away all the other things that pop up because I don't need them. And folder sync seems like a dying market, as fewer and fewer people work with files on disk

When Samsung came out with its ultra-thin phone earlier this year, reviewers said you can't really tell from pictures but it really does feel different in-hand, and is substantially lighter. This one is slightly thinner than Samsung's

Not enough for me to upgrade, but I would consider this one if I were buying this year

The rumors are also strong for a folding iPhone next year, in which case this may just be them using the same thinness work they already had to do for that. A foldable would prompt me to upgrade

I like Rust's approach, where common "errors" (eg unexpected responses from other systems) have to be handled, while true unrecoverable errors don't affect the signature

I got this confused with the Bear note-taking app for a minute (https://bear.app/), since it's in a closely adjacent domain and even has similar value statements. Unfortunate naming collision

I for one would like to see TypeScript's type inference be self-hosted

What's the elevator pitch vs other terminals?

It's a matter of scale. "Optics" (as a separate concern) don't matter at orgs that are small enough that everyone can see everything (and/or has full trust in the people who do). Visibility and trust don't scale, hence the necessary evil of pageantry

Amazingly, my company has done something in three years that took google 18 years!
