god it feels inevitable but i hate wearable tech including innocuous cameras. first it was the sunglasses that ppl immediately jailbroke to remove the recording indicator. now the possibility of a person seemingly listening to music on the train potentially recording me?

im just so tired.

we’ve reached the stage of market consolidation where corporations dictate consumer behavior, not vice versa

yeah im fine with shilling that has actual interesting substance beyond the ad. imo this is an ad + AI handwaving and nothing else.

this is a pretty wide trend for blog content nowadays so im not suprised overall, i just commented because previous antithesis blogs were better than this to that criteria. just take a look at the other older write ups on their site compared to this one and you’ll see a very clear difference in depth and effort of content.

as a long time lurker who usually enjoys antithesis posts, this was a pretty existentially sad read. we all know that company blog posts here always tend to be ads at their core, but historically afaicr antithesis generally toes the line well of keeping the "thing we sell is really good" as a side dish to the "i (author) did very interesting deep thinking and/or hard work to accomplish something cool" entree.

this one falls very flat on that front imo. the "antithesis finds rare bugs" is the overwhelming majority of the actual content here, where as the usual meat of the blog, the hard work, the deep thinking, really distills down to "typed this into claude mobile, typed that into claude mobile". yes, its a statement to the power of the technologies of today that's all it takes to find this bug, but man it's a sad signal for those of us looking for compelling technical reads instead of b2b sales pitches.
