How about phones? They are a computer after all.
I’m in the proces of choosing a new one (forced by hardware failures of current one) a I hate having to choose all of its parameters with no possibility of any upgrade or meaningful configuration at the time of purchase.

Similar with music. I am absolutely sure that the best music did not enter existence in the last year.
- Comment on Running DNS server in Docker 3 weeks ago:
Oh my, TIL. But what then in cases like these, when the Pihole itself is down? You need fallback…
- Comment on Running DNS server in Docker 3 weeks ago:
Shouldn’t you just have a fallback DNS for cases like these? During the outage, it would be the one used and after the things settle, you would be back at primary.
Maybe some kind of monitoring/notifications on top of thatm

- Comment on Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu 3 weeks ago:
Yes. Scary.
And before that, llms in many unexpected ways.
- Comment on Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu 3 weeks ago:
Ads were already there for years - for Facebook, TikTok, Candy Crush, and who knows what else.
I would say this is embarrassingly unprofessional, but the truth is this is just normal these days - normalized by Facebook and Android - and I’m just old and used to better software.
I switched to Linux the same year they appeared.

- Comment on Leaked SpaceX documents show company forbids employees to sell stock if it deems they've misbehaved 1 month ago:
In what sense? Lying about the actual capabilities of the business? Full autonomous drive next year and Mars at 2022?

Yeah, that’s when I started to call him “The pedo guy” (using his own words).

Yes, Klei, definitely!
They take any genre and create a really polished game in it. Then move on.
Plus - this is subjective - I like their art style.
- Comment on Public trust in AI is sinking across the board 2 months ago:
I don’t get all the negativity on this topic and especially comparing current AI (the LLMs) to the nonsense of NFTs etc. Of course, one would have to be extremely foolish/naive or a stakeholder to trust the AI vendors. But the technology itself is, while not solid, genuinely useful in many many use cases. It is an absolute positive productivity booster in these and enables use cases that were not possible or practical before. The one I have the most experience with is programming and programming-related stuff such as software architecture where the LLMs absolutely shine, but there are others. The current generation can even self-correct without human intervention. In any case, even if this would be the only use case ever, this would absolutely change the world and bring positive boosts in productivity across all industries - unlike NFTs.
