Also - capitalism doesn't like "works just fine". We call that stagnation. For better or worse they're going to continue to try to "innovate" new ways of squeezing some KPIs out of their products

> AM radio sucked.

Right? Also it still exists and can be listened to. The ads were interesting? What?

I don't even know what the ads are on the podcasts I listen to because I can skip them instantly

I was definitely disappointed when I saw that the last half was essentially an ad for this gaming console

Different use cases currently.

Specs are AR with interactive “lenses” that are similar to traditional apps

Meta glasses seem to be more video content creation + AI camera tie-in focused, no AR

You’d be more likely to casually wear the meta glasses and the Specs for a specific purpose

Who wants any ads?

Because you sign up for the service, agree to the terms, and voluntarily get into the car.

Yeah I don’t get it. You’re getting into a privately owned vehicle. You agree to the terms of service when you sign up and ask for a ride. You should assume you have zero privacy in those cars.

Yep, found these as well

"Its indexed June archive shows tens of thousands of links, many created within seconds by distinct cloud addresses; some aliases explicitly say ...REPLY, ACK, or R2 confirmed, and one points straight back to a known DseWiki collaboration page"

I've got 33. I don't know how that stacks up against other but a large percentage of them came just from my backyard. Just got added a Baltimore Oriole that showed up this week.

This doesn’t even 100% mean that the code was generated using Claude, only really means the commit message was.

Write some code and then ask Claude to diff your changes and write a commit message. Now the internet hates you

I think a lot of people have a sort of “slot machine” experience with it at some point. You just start firing off prompts on some new project, wait a few seconds, see what prize you got. Then you start doing that over and over just letting the LLM code and code and not even review what it’s doing. It really is like getting hooked on gambling. You’re getting a thrill from anticipation, not the actual results.

This is what I personally consider “vibe coding”, not simply using LLMs or agents or whatever in your workflow

It really is an odd feeling to be in between the 2 extremes

Like I just mentioned in another comment, they're also a way to get you back to work ASAP. Just about everyone NOT working a comfy white collar office job needs to be working in order to make money. Time off is less income, people can't afford that so they do what they need to do to get back to work.

Sprained ankle? Injured back? Headache? Broken bone? All things that people work through everyday with some NSAIDs because calling out sick means losing income

Well for one thing, in America, you gotta get back to work.

Work a manual labor job or one where you're on your feet all day and sprained your ankle? Would you rather miss a week of pay (or worse lose your job) or take some pain killers and work through it?

The new engagement bait technique is "vague posting" so that people need to click into the comments and ask for specifics, its terrible
