Couches, I hear. Couches.

Sometimes also love seats.

First phone.

The waymo vehicles are so cautious they create safety issues.

Will there even be a path for junior level developers?

It’s this. When boards and non-tech savvy managers start making decisions based on a slick slide deck and a few visuals, enough will bite that people will be laid off. It’s already happening.

There may be a reckoning after, but wall street likes it when you cut too deep and then bounce back to the “right” (lower) headcount. Even if you’ve broken the company and they just don’t see the glide path.

It’s gonna happen. I hope it’s rare. I’d argue it’s already happening, but I doubt enough people see it underpinning recent lay offs (yet).

Home Assistant works well on a cheap(-ish) Raspberry Pi. They’re even working to get voice fully capable.

It can be fully local and is FOSS, for those for whom that matters.

I stopped using them months ago. I only notice when I’m looking for places (e.g., restaurants, barbers).

Did you enjoy the read?

Algersome?

He’s taking the territory early.

Others will be less willing to develop if they must compete with a loss-tolerant Meta with years (and billions of dollars) already invested.

I want VR and much of what he’s got people working on. I just don’t want it from them. Or Google. Or most tech bigs.

Agree. I have an S23 and I don’t want thinner bezels. It’s already at the goldilocks spot for me. Thinner wouldn’t be better.

Ethical behavior is a thing for SO many reasons. One of them is it tends to keep you on the right side of the law.

I wonder when AI will be designing its own chips. Or parts of its chip.

Someone with deep pockets needs to buy the super charging network.

Rebrand and keep building.

I’m pretty sure there’s a path to wealth in that idea. I have neither the means nor the skill. But some does. Just not Musk.

Nuh uh.

I watched the Truman Show, too. What they don’t show is when he leaves one sim, he exits into the adjacent flat surface.

Take home or total cost?

For instance, is there a pension to be funded with costs not included in that 100k?
