The Anant Ambani birthday greetings being flashed endlessly on the Sea-Link and this Reddit thread. God, what a city truly public city; truly dystopian and beautiful

Microsoft is moving to 100% native apps for Windows 11. They are stepping away from web-based wrappers.
A new team at Microsoft will rebuild apps using native tools like WinUI. Engineer Rudy Huyn is involved in this shift.
Apps like File Explorer should launch quicker. The Start menu and context menus will feel more responsive.
unpopular opinion: 16GB is plenty if software engineers actually cared about memory efficiency. chrome eating 4GB for 12 tabs is not a hardware problem its a software disgrace. docker consuming 2GB idle is not a feature its laziness. we live in an era where people optimize every single token to save $0.001 on API costs but happily ship electron apps that eat 500MB to display a todo list. if the industry treated RAM the way we treat inference compute - obsessively measuring every byte - 16GB would feel luxurious. the hardware isnt the problem, the software is @adxtyahq
was in an auto the other day and the driver kept watching short videos while driving
not occasionally watching, this dude was locked in busy scrolling and not really paying attention to the road
at one point, a truck ahead of us started reversing, he didn’t notice and i had to scream Anna nodi munde, he braked at the last second
I told him, calmly, please don’t watch videos while driving, and not just with me, even when you’re alon, he agreed
but 5 minutes later, he was back at it again
you can see in the video, he knows i’m recording him, he tries to block it with his shoulder, but still doesn’t stop watching clips
I’m not even mad at him, I could see he is clearly addicted to it, he’s not really at fault, i don’t know who is at fault
and there are so many people who do this everyday, scrolling through reels while driving
and it’s dangerous, even if you are careful there is always a chance someone else on the road is glued to their phone and they dont pay attention
It’s important to remember that this was once described as “inevitable,” and that there was a time when you were derided as a Luddite for being skeptical of it.
In retrospect lots of people are acting like it was clearly always BS, but for a time we were told it was inevitable…
This Mac app bug is one of the single most enraging bugs I've encountered in years! It's in all of the betas too. You get someone's @ mention randomly added to the chat when you press "Enter" and you have to click to get rid of it (and then it will come back on the next message).
can’t believe they literally used this meme as an offhanded in the recent netflix george clooney movie
lines in movies are now downstream of internet memes instead of the other way round
