@overcastfm if I come to this episode info screen from the widget when the app was closed, I can’t play this podcast episode from this screen. Both ▶️ icons play the previously playing episode.
@gruber The other way to interpret Ke Yang's departure is that nobody on Earth has made an LLM reliable enough for turning the lights on and off, and he is leaving for a role where that doesn't matter after LLMs hit that brick wall, again.

@gruber Apple would happily forego a year of Apple Wallet growth to avoid F1 appearing to be a failure. Doesn't matter if it's ¢1 on the dollar - these pennies are more important than those dollars.

It's just so weird that they made a movie so big they can't afford to get a PR black eye... and they cast a guy with two PR black eyes.

@atpfm How stingy is the api for AR really? I know they prohibit eye tracking, but can the user enable camera access so the app can identify nearby objects?

I want Delicious Library AR that shows me where an object was when it got scanned, brings up a library entry when it sees a barcode, etc.

Is that remotely allowed? Or they are too worried Amazon will do it so it’s off the table.

@stroughtonsmith eye tracking seems like the wrong approach, and all the grief they got about physical buttons on the iPhone means I bet they never backtrack on it.
@gruber Aww. Still, excellent free software could easily pull people off the official App Store, so the CTF encourages developers to not sign the new EU agreement at all.
@gruber Isn’t the whole point of the Core Technology Fee to keep the freeware on the official store only? Without it, there would be free, high quality SNES emulators driving everyone to alternative stores in droves. They will never give an exemption if they don’t have to.
@carnage4life 4. It can get you laid.

@briankrebs reminds me of my local isp’s log rotation policy.

FBI: we have a warrant. Give us records of this user’s activity.

Front desk service representative: of course. Only our ceo has access to those sensitive records but he is busy and can help you 7 days from now.

FBI, 7 days later: we have a warrant. Give us records of this user’s activity

CEO: of course. Unfortunately we only keep those sensitive logs for 7 days.
