I do the same thing, I only use Kagi when the result I want isn’t obvious, so the cheap plan is plenty. It’s easy to do with the browser’s shortcuts.

Well I don’t miss the days of sending Word and Excel files as attachments back and forth to collaborate

Because you could get a bug fixed in Outlook before?

No, it’s 18°F. This is a temperature difference, not an absolute temperature, the conversion isn’t the same.

By email this is true but you can’t do that as well by chat or texts. You only get one thread per contact.

When I plan to use a rental car I usually pack a phone holder that fits on air vents. You never know if you’ll be able to connect your phone to the car so that’s a small backup.

It has its quirks. For example it can’t attach an image without inlining it. Or if the sender has several email addresses saved it can’t show which one sent you a particular email. And it can’t show you which of your email addresses received a given email.

Because you don't trust Google either, so you're out of realistic options

If there's a conflict on the server and your change cannot be applied, your change is rolled back on your client

Do you lose your data then? Or are you thrown back into the form after it closed?

Only if you actually try to achieve them

Exactly, without talking about automated checkers or publishing policies, if a text gives readers the impression is was LLM-generated it will affect how they judge it.

Recently a contractor presented a small internal tool they made for a very specific task. The UI text gave a direct impression to be entirely LLM-generated with no human edition. It makes the entire tool look vibe-coded, affecting how we judge it. Now I question whether they even reviewed the functionality correctness, which I wouldn't doubt if the UI didn't look generated.

I got locked out of some websites by Cloudflare Turnstile on some very standard configurations, like an iPhone on Safari, or a Windows 11 desktop with Firefox or Edge, neither with a VPN on. I never found out why.

Now add up the engineer’s salary and you’ll find that software seats already cost more than those R&D ones.

I often use LLMs to suggest recipes based on some criterias, but yes once you decided what you want to cook always go find some non-IA recipes for it

And then we have the national post office sending its notifications from the scammiest-looking domain they could find: noreply@notif-colissimo-laposte.info

It has a good title

Can it store multiple urls for the same password now?

I’m left handed and can use a mouse with either hand. It’s just a matter of habit.

In his case of a large company, I’d expect that completing the useless training is necessary to get access to the tool. That’s how it worked in mine.

If you disable your watch history, Youtube won't show you personalized Shorts anymore. Much less addictive.

I don’t think PWA can do widgets indeed, but they can have an icon on the iOS home screen.

I’m surprised the author went for native apps rather than a PWA for this use

For column types there are STRICT tables now

Standard card payment that you need to autorize on your phone in your bank's app...

Did you stop looking at cars after 2015 ? Most electric cars look very normal.

cite wanting things to "just work", often claiming that they "don't want making the computer work to become a second job"

I feel this way, yet I've used Linux on the desktop for a decade before, even selecting my hardware for compatibility. Yet even when using "stable" distros like Ubuntu, it did require maintenance regularly. With more hyped distros like Arch it was constant. Sure I was always able to fix it, but I had to do it.

I installed Windows back when I started having kids. I just don't have the time and mental space anymore to dedicate to fixing the OS regularly. I need to be able to let updates happen and not wonder whether I need to have 20 minutes free afterwards to fix something.

they provide roads for lots and lots of EU transit traffic

Not for free though

In many countries, the word “government” only refers to the executive branch

They never claimed it was faster, but healthier

In that case, if you stick to pre-ground coffee, just get an Oxo Rapid Brewer. It’s cheap, easy and fast to use and clean, and only requires a kettle. You’ll get decent coffee.
