This is cool. Don't want to minimize that.

That said, in case it helps anyone else, my usual flow is to middle-click (by clicking my mouse wheel) both the link and the comments link which opens each in a new background tab (at least in Chrome). Hopefully that's lower-friction than what you were doing with the two tabs.

I remember watching Gary Bernhardt give this talk live at the Canadian Undergraduate Software Engineering Conference (CUSEC) back in 2014. PNaCl had just come out the year prior, and Google was using it to cross-compile, run, and sandbox OpenSSH and RDP clients inside of Chrome and ChromeOS, and the Mozilla/Firefox folks counter-proposed asm.js as a response.

At the time I just thought it was funny. Now I find it surprising how much of these ideas ended up sticking around.

> still had to use their human words to prompt the AI

In that case, I would like to know what prompt they used so that I can learn to use the AI tools better.

Like, we've had "let me google that for you" since 2008...

Looks like the docs start here: https://developer.android.com/tools/agents/android-skills#us...

There's a link to a repo or you can use the CLI tool to init the skills

To be fair they "only" have a 20 Mbps laser uplink from the capsule to Earth, and that's shared between all the systems and uploading images/video.

it doesn't give a sense of how much the Neo moves the needle or grows the pie though. Mac and iPad are each 8% of Apple's business. iPhone is 50%.

for Apple to focus on fixing things in macOS again (as opposed to just backporting stuff from their other lines) Mac would need to grow by a lot.

Shouldn't it be the other way around if the population is increasing? Every minute one is born = 1440 born/day, every minute and a sixteenth ~= 1335 dead/day for a net population increase of 105/day.
