I assume you never really interacted with the credit card world? E.g. most banks in Germany will give you a credit card that automatically deducts the outstanding debt at the end of the month, you can't really collect debt over time.

In addition I can deposit money on my credit card, so effectively I never have to be in debt if I don't want to. I just have to charge it up which is done in like 3 seconds in the banking app. It can even be automated.

Lastly credit cards with bonus programs definitely exist in Europe. Cashback variations are the most common ones, but all kinds of programs exist. E.g. Eurowings has one https://www.eurowings.com/de/ihre-vorteile/kreditkarten/uebe...

And they are framing the completely different in that case.

I understand Apple's position on this one

Well then explain me this: There are absolutely no restriction on MacOS where I can give Claude free access to everything. If you are a Mac and iPhone user that essentially gives it access to the exact same data. Why is the data only protect worthy when accessed on the phone directly?

Which court testimony are you talking about? A quick google search suggests that Europe is responsible for roughly 25% of their revenue.

Edit: 26% of their net sales comes from Europe for Q1: https://www.apple.com/newsroom/pdfs/fy2026-q1/FY26_Q1_Consol...

I do not understand how scroll hijacking is still a thing. Who thinks this is a better experience?

If you use npm 11, you can simplify your workflow by setting min-release-age to 5. https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v11/using-npm/config#min-release-...

If companies decide to self-host, wouldn't that drive the demand and therefore prices up? Most companies currently do not have the needed infrastructure.

Those multipliers will only apply if you are currently on an annual subscription (and only until your renewal comes up or you cancel). So I assume they simply want to make it as unattractive as possible to get most people to cancel it and move to the token based system.

It is an apples for apples comparison since those new multipliers only count if you are on an annual plan in which case the premium request system stays in place until you either cancel and get a refund or until your renewal comes up. https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/billing/usage-ba...

If you are not on an annual plan, multipliers will be gone completely. You can see the rates that apply instead here: https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/reference/copilot-billing...

There is a common way to go back (swipe from the left edge of the screen). Some apps just don't integrate well and ignore the platform patterns.

Renders equally weird for me on Firefox on Windows 11. Firefox on MacOS looks good though.

Edit: Seems like mix-blend-mode: plus-lighter is bugged in Firefox on Windows https://jsfiddle.net/bjg24hk9/

Probably hasn't been thought through, but if it prevents automatic updates from being rolled out to users in the USA, then that's probably good enough for them.

But you can run your own kernel on Macs, no? Isn‘t driver support the issue?

Both are built on top of the Spotlight index.

Doesn't Raycast (and all the other popular alternatives) build on top of the Spotlight system?

I needed to setup alarms for pills every 12 hours.

In case you didn’t know, there is a medication reminder built into Apple Health that might work better than an alarm.

Especially not if that browser currently ignores the biggest markets (Windows and mobile).

It's not a restriction of the computer. It's a restriction of the API they provide. You can simply use another solution and don't have that restriction.

A non-Apple solution (without these restrictions) could also be implemented on MacOS. I don't see why this makes using Linux computers more compelling. WKWebView is simply a convenient solution I guess but it could have also be implemented through CEF for example.

As I see it, if I was using a Linux computer I wouldn't have access to a terminal with such a feature at all.

Can't you effectively check that through the background activity time in the battery usage overview?

That result is completely different from pretty much every other 13700k result and it is definitely not reflective of how a 13700k performs out of the box.

As far as I can tell those are all scroes from overclocked CPUs.

I guess it was still getting updated. All peripherals are available in USB-C versions for me now.

Copilot is branding, not a product or feature. Problem is that the features/products that run under that branding don't have proper names themselves and I guess that's what trips up a lot of people.

What kind of stuff are you doing that you need many CSS/JS hacks nowadays?

From which point on? After login? I guess a fair comparison would need the exact same reference point before the OS is involved, e.g. once post is done or you pressed the power button.

DeepL is an AI-backed translator. If I use it to help me write my documentation, how is it different?

That's precisely my point. What does "AI-backed" mean exactly? The RFC doesn't ban LLM, but "AI-backed" contributions. Technically from my understanding and interpretation DeepL would fall under that category and would be banned from being used but in the linked thread people seem to agree that DeepL usage is fine. So where do you draw the line? How do you define which "AI-backed" contributions are still fine and which aren't. Eventually different contributors will have different opinions and it will get messy.

But DeepL is fine apparently (as it should be in my opinion) so I guess this is going to be a random dice roll what maintainers will allow or not.

I can understand the sentiment behind this proposal, but it is way too nuanced and complicated to just solve it with a few basic rules.

Why would a college student be an interesting target simply for being a college student in an interesting field? If they work at an interesting company or something like that I would understand, but the knowledge that is accessible in colleges is not some super secret stuff or am I missing something?
