  “Why aren’t flat broke US consumers buying our premium AI PCs that offer literally no advantages over their current hardware, and also include horrific spyware?”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user base⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Microsoft and most other tech giants have long since stopped feeding their cash cows in favor of squeezing them until they’re dead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Duolingo the face of an AI jobs crisis?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems like a misnomer to call it an “AI jobs crisis.” LLMs just made it much more visible that CEOs and shareholders are greedy, shortsighted, and don’t know how anything works. Duolingo was already mediocre. Now it’s going to be completely useless.

  I’ve agreed with that for years. But I think there’s going to be a last straw soon. Microsoft is practically abandoning support for most of its products in favor of milking a relatively small number of mega corps for all the license fees it can get away with. If anyone ever takes privacy seriously again, Recall could force an exodus from which Microsoft might not recover.

  I almost feel bad for Intel. They gave us perfectly fine CPUs that lasted for years without needing upgrading, and nowhere to go from there in a world that demands infinite exponential growth.
