I had a viceral "oh no, did I just install a virus" feeling when I visited that website, haha. I guess those memories die hard.

We already have structure + style + logic in the same file, now we want to add cloud provisioning and cloud configuration? At what point is it too much?

Related: At the beginning of my career I jumped around from startup to startup doing hardware, firmware, mobile, web dev, blockchain, Alexa/Google Home, and then started consulting. Then my client pool dried up during the pandemic. When I started at my current job 3 years ago, I decided I will stay put for a while and resist the urge to look for something "better". I wanted to take on more responsibility and learn what it is like to build software and maintain it for years to come. There are some valuable lessons I learned from doing that. The world runs on the backbone of people who are willing to stay put.

Can someone show me a modern OS that would install software by clicking a link?

I like the general idea. Does it require/use apple silicon? How does performance differ between non-apple vs apple silicon?

The claim that it is 100% on your device is the only reason I would choose to use this over cloud based models. However, with the announcement of “Apple AI” your claim is basically the same only you’re asking users to trust you over Apple.

I wonder how they can swing that being that it is owned by a charity

I'm not sure this would be useful to me, because I don't switch between various projects that would benefit from different tab groups, but sounds like it could be useful! Good luck.

Sure the leadership probably failed too, but don't the "performers" have any accountability?

> "It's like driving on a gravel road versus driving on a freeway," de Heer said. "It's more efficient, it doesn't heat up as much, and it allows for higher speeds so that the electrons can move faster."

Does it allow for higher speeds? I thought resistance increases the number of collisions the electrons make with the molecules in the material, heating up the material, does it actually change the "speed of electricity"? If anything, I would think it might actually increase, similar to water in a smaller pipe (see current formula below). Either way, I don't know if this (possible) change in speed is in any way significant when it comes to computing.

I = NeAVd

Where Ne is the number of free/conduction electrons per unit volume, A is the cross sectional area of the wire, and Vd is is the drift velocity.

Yeah, esp. temperature and the global sea levels

I think the point is that the CO2 levels were relatively stable until recently, so it doesn't need to start at 0.

oh good, it's finally starting to level off
