The simple act of comparing signatures meant that it was very difficult to randomly target people. We don’t have anything like that today, like a key/token pair.


I hope they tell us when it starts because I won’t notice otherwise


Once you start playing with radiowaves and antenna you start noticing the intricate ways it plays with and around bags of water like bodies. I’m sure the original research on location/movement tracking was due to scientists trying not to get interference, later once they figured it out it was natural to see how much data they could get out of a radio interference profile.
I remember the original tech was going to be marketed as a way to tell if your old person (parent etc) had fallen down and stopped moving. Not the best use case, and then the privacy implications became clear. Once that happens the race begins to exploit the tech.
…But the eventuality here is something like a Star Trek tricorder that can take multiple vitals and detect irregularities from across the waiting room. Sensors that remember who was in a room and what settings they had. Etc. Some cool thing besides the bad stuff (microtarget those ads).


One of the ways I knew my marriage was over, he disabled location services and left them off for months and then years. I followed when I started fucking other people.


There’s no way a libel database could be a bad business model


Or maybe the rampant drug use and sales?


They can hold session memory including 10+ source files, and a looong chat, but when you run into the wall, suddenly it’s eating its own memory to keep going, rather than forcing me to reset the session. Which is interesting, like co-coding with a mild amnesiac. “Hey remember when we just did that thing 2 minutes ago?” I should have started a new session when I branched.


Yep I’ve got a working iOS app, a v.2 branched and on the way, with a ton of MapKit integrations. Unfortunately I’m getting depreciation errors and having to constantly remind the AI that it’s using old code, showing it examples of new code, and then watching it forget as we keep talking.
Still, I have a working iOS app, which only took a few hours. When Jack Dorsey said he’d vibe coded his new app in a long weekend, I’m like, hey me too.


Not to sound like one of the ads or articles but I vice coded an iOS app in like 6 hours, it’s not so complex I don’t understand it, it’s multifeatured, I learned a LOT and got a useful thing instead of doing a tutorial with sample project. I don’t regret having that tool. I do regret the lack of any control and oversight and public ownership of this technology but that’s the timeline we’re on, let’s not pretend it’s gay space communism (sigh) but, since AI is probably driving my medical care decisions at the insurance company level, might as well get something to play with.


There are other causes here.
They’ve been talking for a while about how the low participation in dating by Gen Z women is because they’re tired of being the entire support system for men experiencing a loneliness epidemic.
It’s a lot of pressure for the women to be under, and so they’re withdrawing.
I’m guessing this is one of the driving forces as well. Lack of real, emotionally intimate human connections around them. Many men are quite fucked in that regard right now.


Few years ago I got a Nest Secure to go with my other Google Nest gear. One day Google emailed me to tell me Assistant was now enabled on my security system. Oh, by the way, it has an undocumented microphone!
That’s when I realized what a privacy nightmare Google really is. I know Apple isn’t great but come on.


Parenting books were serious business, whole generations were raised with Dr Spock for instance, who had fucked up ideas about childrearing.
It’s one thing to ask for tips on getting a baby to sleep, it’s another to ask it for formula recipes. Unfortunately I doubt most parents know the line where it becomes dangerous, but I am hoping here.


Makes me sad that I know exactly what you mean, this new glass shit has me nervously eying the Linux door.


When do we get to the part where a bunch of UNIX logs get projected, backward, on someone’s face


Nationalization is the opposite of privatization, it’s how the US’s bureaucratic state was really built, we should absolutely do this and right now is the time


Japan introduced brake lights that increase intensity based on how hard the driver was braking. 20+ years ago. They tested it in the US and drivers found it to be “confusing.”


Y’all are rawdogging the substance of this conversation


In the old world maybe. Today’s tragedeigh naming means it could be anything. Qristofer. Enjoy.
