Marketing Company Claims That It Actually Is Listening to Your Phone and Smart Speakers to Target Ads
  • They've redirected the page now that it's getting attention, but here's the archived version.

    I'm very skeptical of their claims, but it's possible they've partnered with some small number of apps so that they can claim that this is technically working.

  • More sports leagues should name themselves like this, tbh

  • Apple has a memory problem and we're all paying for it
  • I absolutely love Apple Silicon—the performance to power ratio is wonderful, and the high-speed memory makes things like LLMs work great—but the RAM upcharge is insane, and shipping anything "Pro" with 8GB of RAM should be criminal in 2023.

    I really hope that Qualcomm can make some noise with their new laptop/desktop processors. Anything to light a fire under Apple's ass and make them stop skimping on RAM.

  • I've Been To Over 20 Homeschool Conferences. The Things I've Witnessed At Them Shocked Me.
  • We homeschool in North Carolina and get exactly zero dollars for it. You're correct in general about the terrible effect that vouchers have on public schooling but incorrect about it being applied to homeschooling. I don't know if it's different in other states.

  • What chromium based browser do you recommend and why?
  • Just giving you a hard time. I prefer FOSS generally, but most of my time on a desktop is spent on the web, and Arc's tab/space management is far ahead of anything else right now. It genuinely makes my life easier. The UX is thoughtfully designed and cohesive; even if I could get close to this setup with Firefox extensions (and I tried), it would be janky (and it was).

    I'm very much hoping some of Arc's UX and workflow ideas will be picked up by browsers generally.

  • I carefully hid some of the reasons I use it in the parent comment

  • What chromium based browser do you recommend and why?
  • Arc (Mac-only for now) is pretty great and has been my daily driver for a while now. Lots of great quality-of-life improvements, a great approach to tab management, and new optional AI features that are useful instead of annoying.

  • Scary Fast Apple Live Event Discussion Thread
  • You can really spend $1700 for an iMac or $1800 for a MacBook Pro that come with only 8GB RAM in their base configurations. C'mon.
