this dude _literally_ wrote about a neighboring town that's dying and the government isn't helping them out. https://shagbark.substack.com/p/obituaryland

Convincing people to move to a remote area while at the same time seeing literal ghost towns develop, is not something I would recommend. What happens when the public utilities fail? The roads need repairing? One of the _many_ blizzard-like seasons can knock out critical infrastructure.


why read the manual when you can rewrite the implementation in plain english with zero code and publish to hackernews? wayyyy more internet points!


Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.

Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.

so which stolen properties were used to train this model?


You picked the wrong post to mention it, copyright holders don't complain about embedding models.


So how many neuro-divergent people did you test this on before you made the claim that it would help them?


I love it when James Bond plots come to life.

is that MAME in the backend?


Brilliant? Launching an app for creating events that requires you to 1) own an iDevice and 2) pay into, just to create events?

I'll send an email for free, thankyouverymuch.


This obviously offers more than just sending an email. And since the majority of Apple users aren't very tech savvy, I can see this catching on quickly.


> 1) own an iDevice

You do not need to own an Apple device to either create events or join events.

> I'll send an email for free, thankyouverymuch.

This seems fine! There are open protocols (email, ics) if they work for you, but Apple specifically developed this in a way to neither require an Apple device or Apple Account to interact. Which is better than some of the competitors! (Facebook and Google tend to create social tools which explicitly require everyone to have accounts.)


> You do not need to own an Apple device to either create events

You need an "iCloud+" account to create, though. Which I as a non-apple user have no idea what is, and probably is useless for me to pay for not using anything apple beforehand.


I use a MacBook and I swear this is the first time I have heard of iCloud+.


If you're paying for more iCloud storage, you have iCloud+.


The first line of their press release:

> Apple today introduced Apple Invites, a new app for iPhone

If Android users have to login to a website to use this, what's the appeal? There are hundreds of simple meeting/event webapps out there, many not even requiring authentication.


> If Android users have to login to a website to use this, what's the appeal?

I'm not trying to convince you or anyone else to use this. It just was pointing out you don't need Apple accounts or devices to participate opposed to something like Facebook events.

> There are hundreds of simple meeting/event webapps out there

Okay? Go crazy using those! But don't claim that this requires an Apple device to create or join events (like the OP I was responding to). And don't claim that this requires an Apple Account to join events (like many other commentators are).


Likely doesn't need to be said, but if you are organizing parties with emails, you're probably not the target user base of this feature.

For the younger folks who organize their parties by texting (iMessages, Whatsapp, Telefram, etc), this can be enticing.


While I agree with your points in principle, the paywall may act as a way for them to handle spam/misuse more effectively


We all knew The Chinese government was going to censor it. The censoring happening in ChatGPT is arguably more interesting since they are not beholden to the US government. I'm more interested in that report.


consider a different remote access option i.e. sunshine + moonlight instead of using steam remote play


Can confirm, Sunshine + Moonlight are a killer combination.

I run a Windows VM on one of my servers for some gaming because I don't run Window's otherwise, and with Sunshine on the VM, I can play with moonlight from my TV, laptop, desktop, phone, ROG Ally (Bazzite), tablet, basically anything that can support Moonlight.
