Yes they should. Enough with this authoritarian user-hostile attitude. I can't even connect to your site as you reject my ClientHello, and I'm not going to figure out why.

The razor to use to determine whether something is actually evidenced based under uncertainty is whether you would follow the same policy if it was your own child.
There are many things that are simply uncertain and “untrue until proven otherwise” isn’t an exclusively optimal policy.

What? This makes no sense. How do you explain anti-vaxxer parents with this perspective? Parents may feel they know best, but feeling and fact have nothing to do with each other.
Cursor recently lost me as a customer. Too many updates that disturb my workflow and productivity, no easy way to roll back versions, super sparse changelogs, lots of magic in context building, really untransparent pricing on max mode. I recently made the switch to Claude Code on the Max plan and I couldn't be happier. The only real thing I'm missing is the diff view across files, but I assume it's just a matter of time until that's properly implemented in Zed or VSCode.
The current max pricing is actually as transparent as it has ever been: It's 20% more to use Max than the APIs directly. I am not sure if your feedback is outdated/based on a previous version of reality?
I don't really see why people still use Cursor over tools like Cline / Roo Code. I'm guessing it's as they clearly have a larger viral marketing department than engineers, as the application itself doesn't perform nearly as well, requires you to have another IDE installed and their subscriptions nerf the models context sizes etc...
I couldn't possibly disagree with you more that Cline is better than Cursor. Cursor's success isn't because of "a larger viral marketing department"; it's because they made superior software and service.
Supabase has a lot of sharp edges that you really need to account for. It's kind of shocking how easy it is to give the world way more access than you intended when using Supabase.
I was just kvetching about this to my partner over breakfast. Not exactly, but a parallel observation, that a lot of people are just kind of shit at their jobs.
The utility tech who turned my tiny gas leak into a larger gas leak and left.
The buildings around me that take the better part of a decade to build (really? A parking garage takes six years?)
Cops who have decided it's their job to do as little as possible.
Where I live, it seems like half the streets don't have street signs (this isn't a backwater where you'd expect this, it's Boston).
I made acquaintance to a city worker who, to her non-professional friends, is very proud that she takes home a salary for about two hours of work per day following up with contractors, then heading to the gym and making social plans.
There's a culture of indifference, an embrace of mediocrity. I don't think it's new, but I do think perhaps AI has given the lazy and prideless an even lower energy route to... I'm not sure. What is the goal?
> but I do think perhaps AI has given the lazy and priceless an even lower energy route
I don't think AI has anything to do with cops acting as scarecrows (at best) or construction workers take 6 years to build parking.
AI wasn't even as much of a thing 6 years ago, so these things seem fundamentally unrelated. And anyway, the cops and construction workers aren't using Claude 4...
You had me up until then. It's not related to AI at all. It's more related to post-Covid than AI imo. Even before this, blame social media since 2010 people have been more and more sucked into a small screen in their hand and a virtual set of "friends" than what's actually happening in the real world right in front of them. At this level, it's just basic detachment. Their head isn't where their body is.

Given Tesla’s current prospects it seems more likely that xAI or SpaceX wind up bailing it out.
This is a self-comforting argument I keep seeing all over against Tesla. Yet, their refreshed models are showing up on roads very quickly.
Demand for Tesla isn't permanently going anywhere just to make a few new Elon haters happy. I also don't like Musk, but I am not deluding myself like so many these days that Tesla is dead. Elon is much like a roach; he will survive nuclear Armageddon.
My understanding is that this is usually for ‘play on smart tv’ situations, but the permission is most unclear.
That's a common justification for access, but it is no assurance to how they will actually use the data they gain access to. Knowing how critical profiling is to the IG/FB business model, I bet it snatches a lot of data to exploit later.

The linked article leans hard into blaming KYC, when clearly improper data handling and security by Coinbase is the true cause. This is something we've seen repeatedly with crypto exchanges: Abysmal data protections and security. Wealth is not new, and financial institutions have managed this information fine. There is an issue specifically in the crypto space with poor security practices.
