  • I absolutely love Apple Silicon—the performance to power ratio is wonderful, and the high-speed memory makes things like LLMs work great—but the RAM upcharge is insane, and shipping anything “Pro” with 8GB of RAM should be criminal in 2023.

    I really hope that Qualcomm can make some noise with their new laptop/desktop processors. Anything to light a fire under Apple’s ass and make them stop skimping on RAM.




  • Just giving you a hard time. I prefer FOSS generally, but most of my time on a desktop is spent on the web, and Arc’s tab/space management is far ahead of anything else right now. It genuinely makes my life easier. The UX is thoughtfully designed and cohesive; even if I could get close to this setup with Firefox extensions (and I tried), it would be janky (and it was).

    I’m very much hoping some of Arc’s UX and workflow ideas will be picked up by browsers generally.









  • Thank you for posing that question! I think the tendency to blame Russia/China/whomever is a complete failure to address the actual root of the issue.

    If everyone who works for a non-American intelligence agency suddenly lost the ability to post on the internet, would Americans start getting along better? Or would a significant percentage of Americans still have a reactionary hate fest running on their televisions every waking hour, their opinions reinforced by Facebook echo chambers full of other actual Americans? I think the difference would be so small as to be imperceptible.

    When it comes to tearing each other apart and working against our shared interests, America has a well-oiled machine running that hardly requires any foreign intervention.
