Nazi-funding explosive-gas car is still a Nazi-funding car.

Screen Time has had many improvements recently; I'd suggest giving it another shot with iOS 27.

No one, probably not even Facebook, intentionally ships crappy software to farm engagement numbers with kids at this point. That's a good way to get hauled up in front of congress and yelled at in a bipartisan fashion, which no company wants.

This comment has the unusual property of being applicable whether or not it's sarcasm!

No, tech writers have it much worse.

Good point! Tech writers, and writers in general, were impacted before developers.

Maybe visual artists/photographers were impacted before then?

Anyone have a timeline of this stuff?

My guess is that translators were affected first, as automatic translation was decent 10 years ago.

> Is it that they were able to deduce the solution by examining all current data sets? Or simply brute force it until the produced solution passed all necessary tests?

Yes, both of these + an infinite token/compute budget and SOTA+ models. It's not like some hobbyist out in the woods with a GPU running Qwen 27B can do this.

> most courts are liberal-leaning.

this isn't Europe, so if you make that claim, you have to define "liberal"

> Republicans are far short of a supermajority in the Senate so nothing passes Congress without Democratic votes

in fact that's not how it works! read up on reconciliation and how ICE got funded

> [2] The White House is always singularly partisan by definition, what Democratic counterbalance you expect to see in a Republican White House, or vice versa?

both sides that fucker, good and hard, better things aren't possible woo!

we know what the game is -- the original deranged billionaires were the Kochs, whose fault a lot of this is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koch_family

we've known this forever

turns out nobody cares as long as gas is cheap

Awesome, welcome to iPhone. You literally can do that today because the current versions of iOS have added support for RCS.

I looked up RCS, thanks! Correct me if I’m wrong but does it mean that if my kid turns it on, her texts will appear green, not blue, to her iMessage’d friends?

Judging by outcomes, the EU legislation -- the DMA -- is intended to make life harder for successful US companies rather than to make life better for consumers. They need to scrap it and start over. It can't be used as a model elsewhere -- it just gets in the way.

While IME 4.7 and 4.8 were not appreciably better than 4.6, Opus 5 was noticeably better, and Opus 5.5 is significantly better than Opus 5.
