reality has a left bias, becausr it the vetter option - the bias comes from the fact many people are not ass wholes.

He was force to buy twitter…

Patients explaining they liked what they heared - not if it is correct or relevant to the cause. There is not even a pipeline for escalation, because AIs don’t think.

VS, VSCode, Sublime, Neovim,

I use Sublime for short scripts in Python, VSCode for angular|typescript, VS for c# and neovim for elixir, elm and all new stuff I learn on my own.

instances are severs - you now have two servers you need to trust.

The average person has no own server.

all cost more than just making an account on established service. The cost of changing from Twitter to whatever is probably smaller than half a year of selfhosting or aaS.

I question the theory of r&d ->bankruptcy, most don’t go under. Xerox not being Microsoft had nothing to do with r&d cost.

r&d is the cost of not falling behind. For smaller company a good work environment and motivated staff is important. The people do offhour research because they like stuff they are doing. They don’t do it for the company, but they bring the skills and knowledge back to work.

But everyone just remembers that one awful teacher and not the dozens of normal teachers doing a normal amount of work, because not every moment in live is world defining.

Yeah, even if the leader has good intentions, his second or third in command might have less good intentions - and the ability to change position.

I, too, get the feeling, that the RoI is not there with LLM. Being able to include “site:” or “ext:” are more efficient.

I just made another test: Kaba, just googling kaba gets you a german wiki article, explaining it means KAkao + BAnana

chatgpt: It is the combination of the first syllables of KAkao and BEutel - Beutel is bag in german.

It just made up the important part. On top of chatgpt says Kaba is a famous product in many countries, I am sure it is not.

KDEConnect - I use it on Windows and android phone. Very nice when you get security codes or links on phone, want to send files or when I want to control audio|video and I watch from the couch.

in general: Fdroid nearly always has a more feature rich and performant alternative
