Both handles in my @away luggage broke. Plastic didn’t age well. My other suitcases were older and had no problem

"This is in contrast to Signal and WhatsApp, which encrypt all conversations by default, both one-on-one chats and also group chats." To read more on this, you may consider reading Ben's writing on this on his blog:

@dhh @AbigailShrier I think the intention was right. This kind of tracking helped me tremendously during my recovery. But I don’t think it’s done the right way. These tracking needs to be conversations … not through an app that doesn’t really care ….

Just your friendly iPhone asking how often you've thought about killing yourself lately. Through a "mental wellbeing" popup you get if you use the Health app. Another crazy instance of @AbigailShrier's Bad Therapy thesis that this stuff has run amok.

Interesting prompt from @sama’s interview with @lexfridman If someone handed you a laptop and said “it’s done, this here is the AGI” - what would you ask it?

Shrier's new book "Bad Therapy" is depressingly spot-on with its account of the modern American childhood. Little wonder so many kids end up diagnosed and disturbed.

@Duderichy I started my career at one of these second tier consulting firms. the hours were terrible, but having that on the resume allowed me, a boring corporate career person, to do relatively okay down the road. Compare to many other paths my peers had, this is not bad at all.

@pitdesi Here is the ultimate test of whether the quest or the Vision Pro will be more successful - ask someone which one they want for Christmas.

Yes, definite Steve Ballmer vibes to Mark Zuckerberg's responses to Apple Vision Pro. Zuckerberg can't help himself but to go after Apple's design choices. I don't think Zuckerberg understands what Apple is trying to do with Vision Pro.

@neilcybart This vid brings back memories of when Steve Ballmer said the first iPhone was a "waste of money" and will never appeal to business customers because of the lack of keyboard and not a good email machine...

@User22r430078 believing humans would only be cajoled into doing good work with discounts/$$ is why you will forever be baffled. Clearly Apple has figured out how to cajoled human beings, from customers overpaying for its products to employees memorising demo scripts.

I find it baffling how the retail team who does the demos every day, memorize a script and explain people who to use VisionPro get such an insignificant discount on it. Absolutely absurd.

@neilcybart @SnazzyLabs @reckless @vicmsong But for a less informed consumer like me, what Nilay said was a great framework that I could build my understanding around it. After all, the verge How would you describe this?

You need to broaden your search if you think a demo summary saying Vision Pro is a VR headset seems salient. Vision Pro isn’t even a VR headset. That’s like saying a cellular iPad is a smartphone. Full immersion is a small part of the device and even then, the way breakthrough is handled is clearly a different approach than where industry was headed pre-Apple.

I really like what @reckless said on the most recent Vergecast about Vision Pro—that it’s a really good VR headset, but it’s just another VR headset with the challenges that come with that. Nilay and @vicmsong have the most salient experience summaries I’ve heard thus far.

@BethanyAllenEbr Gosh this shows you are indeed quite disconnected from the real world, and or you aren’t that good at considering the alternatives. Not good traits for a product maker.

I don't understand why priority boarding on flights is viewed as a perk and not a punishment. Why would you want to spend any longer on a plane than you absolutely have to

So much shade on the Rabbit guys. Here’s what you don’t understand. In China 🇨🇳 hardware is easier than software. You can walk into a Beijing street market with 10 grand, describe something, get a designer to mock it up, get a prototype the next week, then get a small run done in a month. Now all the other stuff is hard. Quality is hard, reliability is hard, not getting cheated is hard. But if you’ve been in the Chinese hardware space for a decade you know you can manage these things. And you can get credit too. You can prepay a portion of the run and pay the rest later. This means the factory now has skin in the game. That is if you know what you’re doing. China births hardware startups as easily as the US births apps. It’s just 5 guys in a room with some soldering irons and spare parts jamming stuff together till it works, then handing off to a cousin who does manufacturing. Delighting customers, finding product market fit, creating a moat so that every other Chinese firm doesn’t copy you is hard. The cost differential between generic cable manufacturer and Anker is tiny. The margin difference is enormous. IMO small hardware is difficult for US firms because there’s a layer of legal and organizational costs to manufacturing something for the first time in China. You end up with long contracts and longer lead times. Rabbit is probably breakeven on the R1. Inference costs are declining 75% per year. There will be an R2.. It will be fun to use. It will be weird. It will delight some, annoy others. But they’ve obviously created emotional impact. Maybe the AGI companion we really wanted was a tamagotchi.. not a waifu or husbando, nor a Siri or Alexa.

@peterrhague @matbogus My daughter loved and read the Ender saga when she was 10. It’s certainly complex, but if you think about it, Harry Potter was pretty savage too. They killed his god father, his mentors, a bunch of kids. ender actually is better because it brings more value from all the deaths.

Is there a science fiction equivalent of Harry Potter? My ten year old is very keen on sci fi but a lot of the classics I’d recommend are a bit above his reading level.

@jesselyu So you said you guys would be happy if you got 50 orders. Now you said 500. It’s amazing you were able to plan and budget a launch with such low units, and get factories to commit to making you such low units Or this is all part of the hyping Just don’t over do it
