Sometimes I love using ChatGPT just because of this

@jacobtechtavern I love being able to easily snapshot my device.

@twostraws Good job. This looks a lot like Rocket Sim 😁

@steipete @OpenAI @openclaw Congratulations! I really liked your story with the Maraquesh / Whatsapp messages. It looked like a perfect elevator pitch.

@adamlyttleapps Did you check the Library folder for core simulators? It looks like they are not cleared when the Xcode is deleted / updated. And they keep stacking up.

@BGatesIsaPyscho Draw things on a balloon. Pop it. Now stretch the remains of that balloon. Do they look the same? Try to stretch them in different ways. Are they different? It’s the same with the way we draw the earth.

Funny! It reminds me of the Java people starting iOS development and creating all those abstract factories with infinite names …

ChatGPT knows how to roast me 😅

@GergelyOrosz It’s so sad to see all these courses online about to “fake” things in order to earn more. I saw someone giving advices on how to look like a mid in order not to be bothered too much so you can get a second or a third job. Remote work creates monsters …

@BatsouElef I like QoWatt, a project that aims to reshape the electrical vehicle charging infrastructure using web 3 tech (for investment, rewards, automation)

@GergelyOrosz For me this looks more like a way to fight inflation. All the governments agree they should apply tariffs and in the end people will be more careful with their spending.

@Grady_Booch @DarioAmodei One of the reasons is that we resonate much more with dogs when it comes to emotional intelligence. It’s the same with LLMs. We connect more easily with them because we’re naturally impressed by those who speak our language.

[Mihail Popa @ios_gems]

@Grady_Booch @DarioAmodei It’s very similar to how people perceive pigs and dogs. Even though they have a comparable level of intelligence—possibly even favoring pigs—people have decided to eat one and make the other their best friend.

@timjcarden If they open the gate they will be held accountable for everything that happens on their platform. It’s not only about security and privacy. Also Apple is shifting their focus from hardware to services. They managed to build a very robust ecosystem. Closed, but robust.
