It is Meta's loss anyway. Many small businesses are starved for talented employees, even if it is from big tech. This seems like a win to me if small businesses get ex-FAANG employees.

This is surprising. I would have thought this would be a commercially viable business. Such a bummer.

Google will probably kill off and shut down Google Search at this rate.

They are not, although Poolside FM was the first one to use the "Poolside" name. Poolside AI filed a trademark infringement against "Poolside FM" that forced Poolside FM to change …

Still, that particular conversation trail is still bewildering in and of itself when talking in the context of a terms of service. It is a statement which isn't considered normal. I mean: "A…

At some point when using the device, he accepted the terms of service, so Apple turned on the 5GB of storage for free. If you don't like this, you can backup your device and move to Android or us…

Get a camera then? How does a normal person get the same service as iCloud for their personal device while syncing _all_ their photos, app data to it?
comment
Saying your 'data is being held hostage' is very overdramatic. The solution is to accept the terms, and move on. If you don't like Apple, backup your photos and move to Android. Come on…
comment
So it is uncool that Apple provides a service for backing up your photos even if they are providing 5GB for free. Got it. Let's hope that your phone won't be part of the 70 million smartphon…

Why are you being weird? > I never paid for Apple’s iCloud service so I am a little surprised that not only were my pictures uploaded... Yes? Apple’s iCloud service provides 5GB for free?

So accept the terms?

We will be seeing more on this list and others very soon. Most of these AI wrappers shouldn't be businesses and most of them are scams. When OpenAI and Anthropic's TAM is any software busine…

But don't the businesses pay for the tools/services? I'm thinking of ways how we can stop them

I am curious like, what are we going to do about it? How do we stop them? We can make an open letter to the AI labs and the employees (they can be anonymous confirmed signatories of course) so that th…

The whole point of a TUI is that it is faster than typing hundreds of commands and options you're likely to forget and made a mistake on. That is not 'showing off'. And you providing an…

> It seems pretty clear that saying most TUI projects are show-off projects does not mean all TUI projects are show-off projects. Which ones are show off projects? Examples? Be objective.

Good. I am curious why does Roblox even exist? This shouldn’t even be a business, let alone a public company. I wish games can just stay games like Valve does and not grow and grow and grow into publi…

A dog and an animal can win an Oscar and other awards, why not an AI actor? This is just silly and pointless gatekeeping.
