Mbourgon everywhere

This was posted earlier. Just because they’re not going to give it to authorities doesn’t mean it won’t sell it to them. Or that it isn’t selling it to everybody else already. The other thread mentions that iOS natively has an app that’s completely private, and that there are apps for android and iOS that don’t share the data with anybody.

One of my bosses has a concept of “T-shaped developers”, which means you know everything a little, and have depth on one thing.

7months: ouch, sorry to hear. I wish I had some words of wisdom to share.

It works great if nobody ever leaves or dies or takes vacation. We try to discourage siloization of projects and emphasize cross-training - it makes the job more interesting, gives people more/better tools to solve problems with, etc. And anytime the business objects we mention the project where X left and how painful it is to get new anything added/enhanced because none of those tenets were involved.

However, all bets are off with offshore contractors. Some want to learn, some simply don’t care and will do the bare minimum.

There’s one out there, named something like kangaroo, where they actually have signed firmware, and a hardware read/write switch (most of the time, the read/write switch is software based) parentheses.

But if they’re having to manually edit 700 of 1000 orders, then it’s like saying “self driving but we have someone take over every 5 minutes”. Which is extremely misleading when they say “it’s AI!!!”

Also for iOS, News Explorer. It uses iCloud to sync between your devices, everything is on device, and it will even somehow do Reddit feeds! (Uh, I mean, if you still do that, maybe…). One time payment. Glorious.

Have any recommendations?

You can set a background as an image. And if you’re worried about it not being convincing enough, you can use a greenscreen

Except since there’s no actual GPS tracker, it uses your IP address. Microsoft thinks I live in either Virginia or North Dakota or Florida, depending on which part of the company’s VPN I connect to.

I’ll be honest, when I first heard that Mozilla had come out with an AI I figured it was on the back of them trying a couple different ad scenarios, and assumed the worst. Pleasantly surprised by Orbit.

Actually, their new AI thing is actually useful: stays on-device, and summarizes web pages and videos.

But yes, they could stand to spend more money on the browser, and less on their CEO and other non-browser things.

That article reads like the AI wrote it

Don’t know as I’d call “find out who has better prices” AI, but it doesn’t seem like they’re letting OpenAI hallucinate deals.

Thanks. I was trying to figure out how the joke was supposed to work with Kurds.

Can somebody explain?

Courage! Think(ing) Different!

So very glad they were able to release it. The whole ‘um, we don’t have that kind of equipment” was lame

Was originally sure if funny or ad, but the site resolves so I’m saying ad
