Heard this one about microsoft on HN as well. How did that turn out?

Companies culture tend to degrade over time, rarely improve.

It's perfectly faire therefore to requiere overwhelming demonstration of good faith to invalidate such a massive bad behavior.

They Never did So they deserve the PR hit.

Which honestly they didn't take nearly as much as they should have.

Stop defending the billion dollars corps. They have proved over and over they are not our friends.

At best our interests are temporarily aligned.

People working for them are not innocent either. They know the company past, they signed their contracts, and stayed despite the culture.

There is such thing as free will, they have their responsability too.

The "a few bad apples" argument is old and tired now. And the "not all People have a choice" have been repeated a nauseam.

What bad PR? When it was released that Apple let the gov suck all the user data throught the PRISM programme, as there any drawback?

No. Most People just shrugged. Gag order, they were forced, not their fault.

Why would you even remotely believe that they are not under a similar situation with the current admin? It's just ridiculously naïve.

In fact, with the recent ledger scandal we know you can bypass good hardware security in clever ways if you are an external actor.

But in this case the actor is just Apple, they can do whatever they want. And Tim Cook offered a gold bribe to trump in public, so we know for a fact they are under pressure.

We know Apple have cheated in the past (the home button scandal). We know they have a lied about privacy (turned out 3rd party contractors had access to your siri conversation).

Your position is just not credible in 2026. It's the xkcd wrench vs encryption type of argument, and it ignores two decades of history.

Reading such argument on HN tells me Snowden did throw away his life for nothing, damn.

And again you have to take their word for it because it's proprietary.

And even if it did work as expected, given the track record of 3 lettres agences, the chance they didn't gag order their way into a back door for this one is also very low.

I find it naïve that after what we learned for the last 20 years people still believe this PR.

It's just a gtd inbox and consumes nothing, but I can just empty my mind and save my adhd brain from drifting to all those butteflies.

Bots are going to love this.

It worked for google and facebook. Oh wait...

postgres in asic however...

Anyway, my claude.md contains only this:

The generalist aspect of jev is what is good about it. Old classifiers tended to be specialized, not good at ambiquity or limited.

LLM were used as classifiers because they solved that.

Jev have the flexibility of LLM and the perf and api of classifiers.

Mandatory intel quote:

> A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision

Obsolete today. What we need is reminding ourselves that we should held accountable the people behind the computer. There is always one in the chain, sometimes a CEO.

It is exotic, and bring only a little to the table for a stiff price increase.

Fun game, but very hard, and teaches you the danger of debt quite early in life.

But the 2 advisers were so funny!

It's virtually the case, google and apple accounts require ID verification, which in turn can be requested by the gov in case of an investigation.

I agree this dichotomy exists and find it useful to ponder for balancing your life.

But there is another more specific one in your context: objects are to be respected vs objects are to be useful.

My mother takes a lot of care of her objects. Her stuff lasts for very long.

Mine don't, but my life is much easier than hers because I don't think twice about making something dirty or worn. It's not alive; it's meant to make my life easier, we built it for it.

Again there is a balance: go too far and you get bad ROI out of your object.

But books fall very much into that category for me. I write on them, cut pages, turn them into a mess. They get a wild life, and then I discard them.

They are not trophies or decoration. They are not sacred.

And yet I may buy the same one 5 times for many friends, or just because I messed one up.

Thanks, much clearer that way. The speaker is unusually eloquent and to the point for a very nerdy demo, they should put that on their home page.
