It seems that comment went right over your head.

Should is the key word here. You pay a lawyer to find out, which probably isn’t worth it.

If Cortana had copilots LLM behind it, it might have survived.

Same here. That works well for desktop, they also have an electron app that wraps their web ui into a desktop app and it works well enough. Bridge works very well for any other desktop app you’d want to use.

The only trouble is that on mobile your option is their app or the web interface, no ability to use alternative apps. The mobile app is good, but not great.

Overall its a good service and I’m happy bit you need to know these limitations going in or it could be frustrating.

What coffee do you use?

You can’t fix stupid. You can argue plugin hybrids are bad on the pragmatic argument that people don’t charge them and that’s fair, but to say they are the worst is just wrong. The have the potential to be the best.

When its not optional to publish email only, the proposed solution is pretty reasonable imo.

Does it actually improve the pairing experience? I am skeptical it will make any difference.

I’m not even that conflicted, those cheering any government censorship are misguided at best.

Cries in left-pad.

You can definitely ‘chat’ with copilot, like other llms as well as the inline editor auto complete.

Ability to zero in on location is definitely the thing that keeps me on the platform. I can’t say its always cheaper, it maybe in some cases but its often equal or higher than a budget hotel in my experience. The fact that I can get a unit with a kitchen and within walking distance of a few of my planned vacation activities is the reason I check it out.

I have been able to live with everything else, but this is the one that kills me every time.

Yeah. That post has over 900 comments, which is rare even for an Ars article. Mostly negative sentiment, which I get.

The OP discusses exactly a solution to the anyone setting up an instance to capture the data, because the users home instance federates their votes anonymously.

There maybe flaws in it, not that’s exactly what it aims to solve.

This is the main thing preventing me, and probably a good amount of other folks, from using alternative roms. If I can get all the apps I need to run, then I can’t use the rom, even if I would prefer it.

Not seeing it on f-droid yet.

I do not like this prediction, because it seems like a plausible reality. Which would be awful.

It’s a balance, but too many people don’t even flag it to management because they’re lazy and they write shit and ship it to get it off their own plate.

Now, if management says ship it anyway it’s a balance of you as a developer making sure they understand they’re throwing this technical debt on the credit card and it may (probably) need to be paid off later. If you fail to articulate the interest that’ll be due later then you didn’t do enough or management is bad.

You shouldt work unpaid to fix it, but sometimes you should just do it right even if it takes longer because it’s how it should be done.

I have done it as my main job and I echo your sentiment. It’s inevitable that sometimes you have to meet a deadline or get something more important working first, but if you write bad code because you are lazy or unwilling to read the docs to do it right, shame shame shame.
