I'd assume that isn't the elephant in the room since Vivaldi is also YACB

What the heck is the "Key Facts" section at the top of the article?

How are the Duo's price, the Fold 8's inner screen size, and the Duo order date the 3 key pieces of information for this article

Your example sounds like a different case than what OP outlines since you know enough to reach the conclusion in the end.

An extreme example, but what happens if Bob Nottechnical follows GPT instructions which happen to include `sudo rm -rf /`? How would Bob know to stop trusting the instructions when every time he's followed things before it worked as expected?

This sounds like some variation of correlation // causation. The people that already like working with (or are addicted to) LLMs would look to try the frontier models on their own time.

> For me this would create more clutter and require more of my attention to ensure the devices work the way I want them to and that I have them on hand. Yes my MP3 player doesn't show notifications but its another device I need to keep with me and keep charged. Buying a device for the sake of it unless I have a real need just feels like consumerism.

I was skeptical until I kidnapped my wife's kindle and started reading on that instead of my phone. I recently added an mp3 player too and there really is something about the intentionality of a dedicated device that make it more enjoyable and more focused than using my phone for everything.

But to your point, there is definitely a lot of performative/consumerism basis - if you visit the Emulator subreddit for example there's an increasingly common joke that nobody ever uses their device, just buys the new one to collect it/post it online for internet points.

For some reason I never considered this route, despite following the PS5 Linux developments... is there a specific reason that the XSX is harder to homebrew than the PS5?

It would be incredible to convert my dusty XSX to a linux box

If the corporate mandates weren't the reason for the number being so high, I would expect the outside of work data to be more aligned.

I feel like these 2 sentences answer what the author is looking for:

> I do not want an LLM-generated novel with chapters, bullet points and emojis, just a simple description of the problem in your own voice.

> If I don't see proof of human involvement, then I'm not interested

I was really excited when I saw tabs were coming to the file explorer, but I can't tell now if I don't like tabs in file explorer or if I don't like all the other things that made file explorer worse when tabs got added

> If art is worth doing it's worth doing with good tools.

Yeah, that's why we should keep LLMs out of it.

Why should I trust someone that's making money from AI to tell me that AI isn't a bubble?

Especially when the entire argument seems to hinge on the author's dislike for the word Bubble. The bubble that pops isn't the actual thing, it's the money that was propping the thing up...

And how much further have we gotten past the moon since then?

This isn't an OTOH, it's just another example of looking at the exponential part of the S-curve.

Not sure what you mean - the text is #443c27 and the background is #f1f1f1, so it passes AAA compliance with 9.68 contrast?
