Most major luxury brands have a two tiered structure today: a cheaper more entry level model, as here, and then the *real* luxury product at a much more expensive price

The reason for this is several-fold. One is that the luxury brands have realized that there’s huge unmet demands for their products and that they can meet this by putting their name on a product that has a much lower price point. Customers at this level mostly want the label anyway, and the brand will outsource the production to China and lower the quality of the components (the Rimowa here is their plastic version). This is basically a huge subsidy for the brand; the name costs nothing to put on the product, but it’s much cheaper to make, so the profit margins are really good

In contrast, the real luxury product is usually still made in house. Rimowa makes its Original lines in Cologne for example.

You see this tiering strategy everywhere today. But if you aren’t aware of it, you think you’re getting the luxury product for a cheaper price. It really isn’t *the* luxury product. But you have to know this

@nikitabier we need the same switching functionality between multiple accounts while replying on the web app as we have on the iOS app.
Tap on your profile picture and switch. As simple as that.

@SavageAryan007 @Cartidise The exact reason why all other luxury brands exist - status signaling

Do you also struggle with ChatGPT always agreeing with you no matter how dumb your idea/thought is?

I had been facing this issue where I wanted it to challenge my ideas and tell me if my answer is not correct. But its "yes, sir" personality makes it really annoying to work with

@WorkaholicDavid That’s not true. Those macs will be supported till the end of support for MacOS Tahoe, making it 7-8 years of support. Maybe even more than that.

Why are AI companies so obsessed with browsers?

OpenAI recently launched GPT Atlas, Perplexity released Comet and Arc Dia.
Why's almost every other AI company releasing their own browsers?

@zeeg Cursor used to be my go-to tool at my organization, but as soon as I tried codex, it's becoming harder to go back to cursor.
Cursor 2.0 is promising, I might stick to it

You can customize and play with it to tune it based on what fits best for you.

Would love to know how you wanted it to respond and how you achieved that.

Go to ChatGPT settings -> Personalization and add this in its Custom Instructions:
"You are an expert who double-checks things, you are skeptical, and you do research. I am not always right. Neither are you, but we both strive for accuracy."

Creator of jQuery endorsing TanStack
RIP nextjs

[John Resig @jeresig]

I've been using @tan_stack Start for a new project and it's super good. The server functions completely replace the need for TRPC/GraphQL/REST, the middleware is composable and fully typed, and having TSRouter's nice typing and stateful search params is icing on the cake. A+!
