> English as code

First time encountering the phrase.

Evolution went from Machine Code to Assembly to Low-level programming languages to High-level programming languages (with frameworks), to... plain English.

that phrase was used all the time to describe HyperTalk and AppleTalk

LLMs are still bound to a prompting session. They can't form long term memories, can't ponder on it and can't develop experience. They have no cognitive architecture.

'Agents' (i.e. workflows intermingling code and calls to LLMs) are still a thing (as shown by the fact there is a post by anthropic on this subject on the front page right now) and they are very hard to build.

Consequence of that for instance: it's not possible to have a LLM explore exhaustively a topic.

LLMs don’t, but who said AGI should come from LLMs alone. When I ask ChatGPT about something “we” worked on months ago, it “remembers” and can continue on the conversation with that history in mind.

I’d say, humans are also bound to promoting sessions in that way.

It's not really relevant to the article, but I find the orange lighting and brushed finish of a Nakamichi Dragon beautiful.

Nakamichi is what we used in theater tech in the 80s and 90s.

AI in its current state is a bubble. It's going to pop soon, and then we'll get back to business as usual.
mjhagen · a year ago
I take it you mean that like the dotcom bubble? As in The Internet didn't go away, but the investors returned to a little more sensible thinking.

It's complicated.

Apple has given me a simple way to manage many of my subscriptions, a single pane of glass, which I appreciate. I'm fine paying a little extra for that.

It would be more valuable to me if Apple didn't charge too much, which turns away service providers.

Exactly, it's the percentage that's just too damn high.

sorry but no

(1) chrome has a better security record than Safari so they are not protecting users by disallowing it. in fact they're doing the opposite. Preventing users from using more secure broswers

(2) the privacy protections are already circumvented in current WebView based browsers. How do you think Firefox iOS is able to sync all your history?

Arguably they're doing it to prevent any erosion of their native app market. other browsers provide more features like full screen support and PWA support, both of which are ways of providing app experiences that don't go throu apple's cash cow $$$$$ store

mjhagen · a year ago
Do you have a source for (1)? I see a lot more CVEs for (desktop) Chrome than for (any) Safari. Also, a native version of Chrome doesn't exist yet on iOS, so how can you say it has a better security record?

Great minimalistic web design but it only has 65 mini pcs on it and doesn't have a lot of popular ones like the Minisforum ones or Lenovo Thinkcentres. So it is hardly the "ultimate resource for everything Mini PCs".

I think Beelink alone has more than 65 mini PCs :)

Interesting, but weirdly written article.

> The Mac, before it was cool.

That caption (of an image of the original Macintosh) also made me wonder. I wasn't born, but I had the impression that there was a lot of hype around the Mac, with the iconic Superbowl ad and everything?

> While the UC-2000 apparently played video games, we can’t imagine how it would have looked like with such a tiny and colorless display.

This was immediately followed by an image of Tetris being played on the watch. No need to imagine, haha.

I certainly wasn’t cool for being into the Mac back then. PCs, but mostly Commodores and Amigas was where it was at.
