Investors can try to subsidize while the cost of delivery, evolution, and efficiency improves, while at the same time completing market capture.

Does this mean AGI has been reached according to their mutually agreeable definition?

Wording can go a long way - calling it early access, and saying invitations will allow you to invite your friends as the platform opens up can paint a similar picture in a different way.

It doesn’t have to be for everyone.

Lots of people use both operating systems, or stretched from one to the other.

Socrates is about choice, just because I might not see the understanding in something doesn’t mean there isn’t any understanding in it.

I use both operating systems. I hate using things that don’t follow platform standards. It makes them more confusing and causes extra cognitive load.

I simply see no benefit of a copy of very Windows-y app. It’s pure MDI with buttons in a toolbar. It’s a perfect example of a 3.1/95 style app.

It’s not like it has special features missing from the great many editors on Mac. If you want a “same everywhere” experience I’d think you’d want something that sort of lives in its own world like VSCode. It’s not native style anywhere, exactly. But it’s very powerful and popular.

In many cases I get “I want the app I like over here”. I really do. Especially if there is something really special about its design or feature set. In my experience with Notepad++, I have never wished to have it on my Mac once.

That's cool, sounds like it's not for you then.

There are plenty of people who would appreciate it though.

I've been using N++ for a long time. I have tried just about every editor out there and I always end up back in N++.

It's old. It is missing a lot of the bells and whistles of newer editors, but I'm still most productive in old faithful :)

Do you see that other people might no share your view and instead find this useful?

One thing you can't really rule out American ingenuity is deciding to do something.

What America did with developing Shale Oil to become viable, so quickly is one example.

This is odd.

When things like this surface, I try to see how I focused on the gap leading up to it, and trying to fix it, and hope I am not focusing on the gap and questioning can draw attention to it and reinforcing it. This means more attention is drawn to what is not wanted by questioning it, instead of being clear that the intention is to ensure in all cases, shapes and forms it no longer happens.

Instead, mention what you require, repeatedly, and also mention what you do not want ever to happen and it might be different.

There exists a sweet spot between docker swarm and docker, not quite portainer, but a bit more.

The tools in this space can really help get a few containers in dev/staging/production much more manageable.

Whom tech benefits is worth keeping in mind.

Tech for improvement for customers vs tech for moats/enshittification, especially when imposed by one side on the other.

The latter is never very good.

Same for Smart TVs.

Always better short and long term to bring and maintain your own smarts.
