im losing my mind here

i will be daily driving the MacBook Neo for the next two weeks, professionally. I work in IT, and need to decide whether the Neo will be a viable device long-term. I will try to document all of my thoughts about it, bar usual MacOS bullshit

@twowheelsoneman Business models can change. Imagine being part of a hyper scaler and dealing with explosive demand as a problem rather than an opportunity

GitHub saw LLMs coming, built Copilot before everybody else. They had years of a headstart, and the ideas of coding agents was painfully obvious, widely discussed.
Still, here they are struggling with something that only they got to see coming before everybody else.
Lots of things were built pre-agents, the question is if they will adapt or die.

GitHub has been around since April 10, 2008 Agent's came out yesterday yes, GitHub was in fact NOT designed for Agents
English
@matvelloso Mostly all AI IDEs are forks of VS Code and yet they are more popular than VS Code + GitHub Copilot combination.

@JeremiahDJohns The internet is a smothering echo of the past . No way for current generation to break free unless it’s dismantled . You can’t grow up living in your parents and grandparents universe . Like living in crumbing ruins forever

I've written about this before, but it's remarkable how much older music is strangling new music.
And the same is true in books, movies, video games. Older media is taking up a bigger and bigger share of the market every year.

@FinanceDirCFO Engineers have had too much influence over policy. 7/10 aren’t any good, but still retain control. Breaking up that power structure is a good thing . Like the printing press.

I do love the way "gated" has become a pejorative term.
In the old days, idiots who didn't know what they were doing couldn't get a job writing software.
I don't see how letting people who don't know what they're doing write software is a benefit to society as a whole.

Software used to be gated by roughly 20 million professional developers up until last year. Good ideas still needed engineers, co-founders, time, and months of app work. Now, anyone can build. ~ Wabi CEO Eugenia Kuyda

@niccruzpatane Safer than average does not mean safer than exceptional drivers
English
Everyone is going to want a ~$30K Tesla Cybercab when it becomes available. Tesla will sell millions of these:
• Magnitude safer than human driving.
• Have the ability to legally sleep as it’s driving you.
• Operating costs could drop to as low as $0.20 per mile.
• Great for elderly individuals who are no longer able to drive, as well as people with disabilities.
• Work as are you being driven, or watch movies/play games.
• Send off to run errands (pick up kids, pick up someone at the airport, etc).
• The ability to add/subtract from the Tesla Robotaxi fleet to earn passive income.
• Send to pick up groceries, or other orders.
• Have the ability to send home after getting dropped off your location, eliminating the need for parking.
• Send for service autonomously when needed.
• Virtually Zero Maintenance.
This car will revolutionize transportation, and car ownership.

@wholemars Why doesn’t real estate pricing follow supply vs demand ? What is propping up leasing costs ?

The Westfield mall on market street empty
Vacancies all across the Third Street Promenade
I never thought I’d live to see California crumble like this. It is so sad. But instead of questioning how we got here, we’re just digging our heels in deeper.

craziest thing is that almost no one is moving away from github

IT WAS FORETOLD, BUT IT IS NOW REALITY, GITHUB HAS ACHIEVED 2 9's OF RELIABILITY!!!
English
@ThePrimeagen It equates Actions slow response time with GitHub being down
English
don't worry everyone
I get this is a dumb website that aggregates all down time in any service as "uptime" in aggregate (which is unfair).
Its simply funny to not have brain on internet.

@slave_2_liberty Earth is flat reveals how little the average person ponders epistemology
English
I'm not saying that the Earth is flat because I really don't believe it but is this poster aware of fisheye lenses or not?
Earth@earthcurated
NOT FLAT…

@relizarov Any devs who ever use the shell will find assembling one liners with objects loads easier than text based parsing . Multi line shell scripts are loads cleaner with powershell. You’re the only dude who likes cmd.exe
English
@twowheelsoneman I get it. If you are a Windows sysadmin, then PowerShell object streams are helpful. In my dev workflows I need none them. I don't need a "shell" with all the complexities of their support. I don't need yet another "dynamic object" language but over .Net.
English
Why all dev tools started defaulting to PowerShell on Windows? Might be useful for sysadmins, but it adds zero value for a typical dev workflow, only extra friction. I always switch back to plain old cmd.exe for my own needs, but all the agents tend to prefer PS and fail with it.

@JesseKellyDC The chart is even more horrifying when you include the covid data points.

If you’ve even flown into Los Angeles, you understand how gorgeous and perfect Southern California is.
It’s takes a superhuman effort to make that paradise a place where nobody wants to live or do business.
But communists were up to the task.

@twowheelsoneman @Mikeggibbs So the video you’ve seen so far is for operational monitoring, and they’re well-equipped with the most recent communications hardware.
The hi-def Nikon footage is still yet to come.
English
Can anyone explain why the video quality from Integrity is so poor?
This is awful video quality...is this temporary?

@markping @politicalmath Establishing orbit would require more fuel. As too would breaking out of that orbit. And with modern cameras and imaging technology they can probably see more at 4k miles than Apollo 10 could at 9.

@b_arch_ky @Mikeggibbs The hardware and radios are all commodities now. I think nasa can swing $20k for some gopros and microwave transmitters
English
@Mikeggibbs Privately funded companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin spend more money on better “consumer videos” for promotional reasons.
NASA is funded by tax payers.
Write your Congressman if you want to pay more to increase NASA’s “Production Budget.”
English
NASA’s Artemis II livestream really makes you appreciate @SpaceX’s launch broadcasts.
Bad camera tracking, no onboard cameras, countdown timer disappeared, NASA even showed people in the crowd instead of stage separation lol. The screen also blacked out twice during the first 10 seconds of the launch.
