90% of MAGA would support Trump taking a dump directly on their faces.

Nope, now (by default) it opens all the files you had open the last time you used Notepad. You can turn it off, but it's annoying.

Dear Mr. Karp, please fall off a cliff

There's a lot of magical thinking about how AI will actually help the labor market, but it seems clear to me that the entire reason for the billions being pumped into AI is the potential to slash labor costs.

It's like they're building human wood chippers while telling us that all these human wood chippers will actually result in fewer people being fed into wood chippers.

Sure, I have no doubt that a terminated NIH scientist will have no trouble finding a "factory job" that pays two or three times as much.

What world does this guy live in?

I'm just spitballing here, but maybe you should find out what people want first, and then build that.

I'm not surprised that Hannity finds it "almost impossible to comprehend" that someone would resign to uphold their principles.

Also ironic since in this case the President and Secretary of Homeland Security immediately came out stating that the victim was a domestic terrorist and tried to murder the ICE agent with her car before any investigation was conducted, and both of which turned out to be false.

About 45 of the most confusing seconds

Very true, and a big part of the reason most people won't want this.

It's like the "AI pin you wear that absorbs literally everything you see and hear" product that was pitched a couple of months ago. Kill it with fire!

The article keeps using the phrase "upcoming XR revolution" but I don't see this gaining much traction outside purpose-built implementations for specific jobs, and a subset of tech enthusiasts.

Long-time Linux user, have never run AV on my Linux machines.

A few years back, I was forced by compliance rules at work to install AV on a Linux server and started looking for solutions. I shopped around a bit and what I found was that even the commercial AV vendors who supported Linux had no more than 4 or 5 actual signatures to detect Linux malware, and they were all 5 or more years old.

Things may have changed since then, but this may be a good way to think about it... how much Linux malware can these tools actually detect?

Yes, Linux rootkits are a thing but if your AV doesn't detect them, there's no point running it.
