Whilst I would like this to be true there is simply too much real life work. Also I’m the dev in a partnership where the other guy brings all the domain knowledge and b2b customers. There’s almost no overlap of our circles of competence and neither of us could do the company individually.

Today I asked Siri a basic question hands free whilst driving and it said “I found these on the web”.

I’ve been with Apple since the first iPhone but I think I’m done. They have dropped the ball on AI. It’s late 2026 and my Opus 5.5 does all my coding and Siri still can’t find info and read back some basic info. Pathetic it’s like they’re not even trying any more.

The problem with this will be something like my preference would be a person who makes home a peaceful place. This isn’t something that can be put on preferences. As if a potential partner is going to tick yes to “incessant nagging” so I can avoid them.

I didn't know that - I revoke my OP if true!

Whilst I do like reading these things for technical know how, I can sympathise with the creator of jev who now presumably has to apply an order of magnitude effort to explain why the 100 smaller things done better than this add up to a much better product.

I give my agent passwordless sudo and run it directly on prod, deploying directly to prod. I’m not trolling this is exactly what I do. YOLO.

Ha! It’s also going to be funny when he discovers going over India requires parallel diplomatic clearance by his embassy and if he misses the slot, bye bye record. Repeat problem for multiple countries along the route.

This would be great for most projects as Swift for example is abandoned & 6+ years since last commit.

reading the source it looks like for some browsers that rate limit url updates, it has to use a different way that nukes your back button ability.

As an Australian I’m disappointed in the lack of the key word ‘cunt’ in the graph. Unless perhaps it’s zero.

If you have a modern iPhone and don’t want the crazy hacks, a very very simple but effective tip is to power off your iPhone when exiting the aircraft. When the device powers up it is in “before first unlock” mode and is severely restricted in what it can do. The attack surface area is significantly reduced. They’re not going to burn one of their $100,000 per install exploits on your BFU phone the same way they do with a full physical access unlocked paid exploit.

Also lockdown mode to reduce attack surface area.

I've already made the decision not to go to the US again for the foreseeable future.
