I like Anthropic’s plugin system. I wish everyone would standardize on it instead of everyone having a billion different ways to do slash commmands, skills, etc.

Anthropic wants to ditch MCP and not be on the hook for it in the future -- but lots of enterprises haven't realized its a dumb, vibe coded standard that is missing so much. They need to hand the hot potato off to someone else.
Here's v0's attempt (using Opus 4.5 / I'm on free tier) with the article and comments too. It did quite well. I believe it followed my instructions to use just a single html page (wound up being 3000+ lines long).

I love this
I think one of Apple's strengths since Tim Cook took over is their ability to avoid "gimmicks". As much criticism as people have of apple for not innovating on the iPhone, I appreciate their ability to not screw products up.
I'm not saying AI is a gimmick, but the caution they show is a good quality I think
Gemini, grok, etc all have 100x better experiences with voice. Apple is bad at this.
I’m an hour from Cambridge, MA. Ask the weather? I always get Cambridge, UK. Siri is terrible.
They can’t even make a functional keyboard anymore. The text prediction and autocorrect is worse now than it was in 2010!
These are all solved problems in 2025.
They said the same thing about Red Hat. The fact that Whitehurst resigned from IBM should tell you something.
I'm pretty sure Jim had aspirations of being IBM CEO but they picked Arvind instead.
I really liked Simon's Willison's [1] and Meta's [2] approach using the "Rule of Two". You can have no more than 2 of the following:
- A) Process untrustworthy input - B) Have access to private data - C) Be able to change external state or communicate externally.
It's not bullet-proof, but it has helped communicate to my management that these tools have inherent risk when they hit all three categories above (and any combo of them, imho).
[EDIT] added "or communicate externally" to option C.

It baffles me that we've spent decades building great abstractions to isolate processes with containers and VM's, and we've mostly thrown it out the window with all these AI tools like Cursor, Antigravity, and Claude Code -- at least in their default configurations.
So Gopher?
