You had me until the whining.

I liked the idea, and found it useful (but I have smaller fingers). The biggest issue was how buggy it was, especially in earlier laptops. If it doesn't respond (common bug), then you now have no function keys, screen brightness keys, etc.

The way you describe it, this release amounts to an extremely large and expensive Touch Bar.

I think that sums up the "fleets of agents" approach fairly well.

I don't personally know of any software engineers using AI as "fleets of agents" in a "factory." Sounds like a nightmare.

They get aftermarket gold plating, diamonds, and that sort of nonsense.

> We show respect by packaging folks out to live comfortable remainders of their life.

And in what way is this distinguishable from disrespect? There is some major assumption in your post that remains to be explained.

Except that 'pisteuō' means more nearly "to be faithful to" or, one could even say, to enter a type of contract (thus the Greek construct 'dia pistis', two parties relating "through faithfulness").

Anglo evangelicalism constrained its meaning to something like "intellectual assent", for its own purposes (in my opinion, it made for better sales models) some time in the nineteenth century. And as you essentially point out, intellectual assent is fairly meaningless.

Do tech influencers never tire of announcing their incompetency in their subject area?

Addiction brings out the worst in people; they're suffering and only become aware -- keenly aware -- between "fixes."

I have an SGI O2 sitting in my closet. Unfortunately, I gutted the case with the idea of inserting a micro-PC, but I kept all the parts and hope to restore it to original state some day.
