Here's the benchmark scoreboard they published:

"Crying wolf" constantly like this is so frustrating. It waters down the message until they send something you really need to worry about, which you ignore like the rest of the pointless messages.

Agree wholeheartedly. Very confusing. If they want people to care, they need to explain the situation in a way to make people care.

I found it plucky and intriguing. A great metaphor, not often seen in tech. Not everything has to be in the lowest common denominator of language.

touche!

Why on God's green earth is Windows running on the Artemis spaceship?

Wow, this seems to have hit a nerve, based on the early downvotes.

It doesn't bother me at all -- in my post, I said it cracks me up. They all have their reasons for breaking up with Apple. FYI I'm not an Apple guy myself.

These "breaking up with Apple" stories pop up from time to time here. Cracks me up because they all follow the same pattern:

"I'm done with Apple. I've been a Mac user since since $EARLY_YEAR. I loved using $OLD_APPLE_HARDWARE to work on $VARIOUS_INTERESTING_PROJECTS. I fondly recall $FORMATIVE_APPLE_MEMORY.

But they've gone too far. $NEW_APPLE_ENSHITTIFICATION is the last straw, I can't do this any more. This will be hard because $REASONS. But I'm going to adopt $PLATFORM because it's the right thing to do."

Most of them mention Steve Jobs but this one didn't actually.

This is very cool, nicely done.

One note: the Property link, that links to the actual news source, is broken.

Also, the test link you're using for Nautilus (the top scoring site) is 404 (https://nautil.us/issue/48/chaos/the-multiverse-as-muse)

This is a very clever idea. Unfortunately I dislike installing extensions, because so many of them seem to get taken over by nefarious owners. Sadly it's poisoned the whole extension platform for me.

FYI: On Youtube, the keyboard shortcut for changing the video speed is simply pressing < or >

Early in my career I worked at a place where the sales people would half-joke about signing deals on December 40th -- to claim it in the previous quarter/year.

A company in incredible turmoil. Would not want to be there now. Morale must be brutal.

I'd say this post reads more like them beating their chest about how great their improvements are.

Indeed, open source exists despite Microsoft trying its hardest to kill it. Microsoft was (and still is) a ruthless, savage competitor. Their image has softened as of late but I'll never forget the BS they did under Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer.

I blame Yahoo's Jerry Yang for normalizing this silly writing technique.

Awesome to see golf related projects on HN! Nice work.

If you read the article, Google says they hired a professional voice actor to create the NotebookLM voice. I'm sure this will come to light in the lawsuit.

There's lots of websites that list the spells. It's well documented. Could Claude simply be regurgitating knowledge from the web? Example:

As a site owner, how does one opt out of this, since it obviously ignores robots.txt?

Microsoft has access to all the OpenAI/ChatGPT tech. How is their chatbot so awful? Seems like they are trying their hardest to screw this up.

Thanks for sharing.

I never got to the actual product/website itself. There were 4 popup dialogs that I had to wade through first, and I bailed. My advice is, don't antagonize or put roadblocks on your potential users before they can even begin to absorb your product.

Stock is down 22% today after their earnings report.

Title is in reference to this popular blog post: https://dx.tips/gartner

Which was also a topic on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44890012

This is definitely interesting and HN-worthy. If nothing else, archive.today links are posted on tons of HN submissions, so it's topical.

The original iPhone came pre-loaded with Google search, Maps, and Youtube. Jobs competed with Google but he also knew Google had best-in-class products too.

Is the era of Apple exceptionalism over? Has it been over for a while now?

GoT got so bad that I don't really have any desire to watch any of the seasons ever again. Killed rewatchability.
