I love how the 'unsloppify' button changes the theme but nothing else, and also messes with the layout enough that you can't actually toggle it without scrolling and repositioning your cursor.

The annoying thing with Finder is when you're in a folder, you start to search, and then it defaults to "This Mac" and not the god damn folder you're in.

Bloody daft.


That's because you have that set in your Finder Settings.

With the Finder open, go to Settings > Advanced, and change the drop-down at the bottom to "Search the Current Folder". This is something I do on the first run of every new Mac I set up.


No, that's because it's a default value, so the complain is 100% spot on. Bad defaults should be treated as a bug.

"Search this Mac" should be confined to Spotlight OR as a fallback if the local folder doesn't return anything.


I made this change. Thank you very much!

AI is literally state sponsored so I don't see that happening unless the AI turns against the sponsor.

Wait until OpenAI or Anthropic exploit FAANG.


If he's lost the confidence of the board and does that, how much is his company worth?

Does it matter? He owns it and doesn't plan to flip it, and they have enough income to go on for a long time.

He is self-described "post-economic" after all.

Going cold turkey on Twitter (and Facebook and the like) was amazing, but the problem for a while was that you'd still end up browsing it by proxy because it would all get screenshotted for Reddit.

It's been a long time since I've seen them (thank god), but the worst culprits were subs like facepalm, white people twitter, leopards ate my face, and pretty much any left-leaning or liberal sub.

They did a fantastic job of platforming the ideologies they stand against simply by screenshotting the most vocal advocates and talking heads and sharing them so commenters could get angry. That shit lived rent free in the subscribers' heads to an unhealthy degree and for everybody who hate-engaged, there were plenty more who saw it as an introduction.

One day I'll do for Reddit what I did for the rest of social media but for now it's easy enough to stay off Popular and All and just stick with the smaller subs with a specific subject matter.


Is a client or investor going to have a conversation with an AI CEO and then negotiate funding?

VC: "Hi, I'll offer you $3.75 for 95% equity and a load bearing position on the board"

CEO Bot: "You're absolutely right. Agreed!"


That's the smoking gun—investor relations are all about human connection seams and load-bearing relationships.


The irony is that S3 is a database, so the first assertion that there is no database is fundamentally incorrect.


Because hiring managers and HR have different incentives and it's therefore in their interest to play the game.

See: every manager and CEO that gets a bonus from cutting down head count or keeping the hiring budget as low as possible.


Naturally most of the 67/six seven ones are taken too, but are just being squatted on.

I'm disappointed that sixseven.ai is not joining the Gen-Z brainrot revolution.

I've been watching old TV shows lately, the original CSI, all those 24 episode a season procedurals and so on.

Whatever we call 'AI coded' now has an awful lot in common with old TV screenplays where no word of dialogue was wasted. It's all the same style: punchy, plays on words, a bit of smart-ass in there.


I think that makes sense. The "ai prose" stuff is a result of post training where the labs force the model to sound a certain way. It makes sense that the general chat models are trained to sound similar to mass market media, revealed preferences show the average person likes that kind of language.
