With iOS 27 Apple introduced the iPhone handoff, which allows sharing the same phone number with two devices [1]. Maybe their thinking is that Duo is not necessarily your only iPhone.

Teams/Zoom calls when not on desk. iPhone Max screen is just a bit too small when people are sharing their screen.

Depends on how much information and details you have. The agents.md always goes into context. Detailed testing or process information might be excessive, when agent is working on UI. Skills are pulled when needed.

It’s easy to end up with bunch of old stuff in AGENTS.md that latest models no longer need and what might just confuse them. See for example the story about Anthropic cutting 80% of their system prompt [1].
Maybe they feel just using the AGENTS.md written for another model and possibly different era gives bad user experience.

Models are now so good, that "how the model feels" is getting more and more important. I think this is pretty interesting, because there's no clear metric for this that you can optimize for. It's a matter of taste, like good design.

"OpenAI will launch a portable, screen-free smart speaker as its first consumer hardware product, Bloomberg News has reported, days after Apple sued the AI start-up and two former employees of the iPhone maker for trade-secret theft." [1]

As human I also give wrong answers if if I know the right one. Sometimes I also give answers even when I don’t really know them.
When pushed, I then start thinking and realise my mistake. System 1 vs 2?

Session data lookup is one select to database that gives 0..1 rows and uses index. In most cases this is not something you need to worry about.

When many sites are collecting these photos, it increases possibility of them leaking. Since these are also used for KYC process in crypto sites etc, this in turn increases risk of identity theft.

Isn't training material the biggest problem for truly open source LLMs (such that could compete with top tier models)? The computation part can be solved with money, but compiling a comprehensive training set that could be freely shared and free of copyright issues is pretty much impossible.

Do we need to bring Keybase[1] "back"? The original idea, mapping your social media presence to certain encryption keys.
In the future it will be increasingly difficult to prove in online context that you are not a bot. Being able to show that your social media (HN, GitHub, etc) presence goes way back would be an option.

"yes, there were regressions in some use cases of rsync in the 3.4.3 release. I quite deliberately tried to err on the side of fixing security issues for that release, and there were some valid (but unusual) use cases that got caught up in the changes"

It’s sometimes convenient if database is the only ”stateful” component in architecture.
Also if all the "state" is in one database, then you have better chance of getting consistent backups.

Not sure if this is the future I want, but I've always thought the main idea of smart glasses is to automatically bring up information that is relevant in your current context. One part of this is to recognize who you are staring at.
