Security conscious domain. We do automations on behalf of our clients and they don't want credentials stored. "Handling" 2FA automatically is completely unacceptable, it breaks the entire point of the 2FA security model. Besi

What about hybrid automations or human-in-the-loop flows? We have automations where the human starts by logging in, then hands over to the agent. Some parts may even be Puppeteer automated. This also means the session may be long running, t

Sounds awesome but can I use it like a regular database for my Laravel/Rails/Django app?

And not just any video data, they specifically mentioned screen recordings for agentic computer uses. A very specific kind of video. My guess is they have a partnership with someone like Rewind.ai

I wonder if this would enable the truly "serverless" application I've been thinking about. Imagine shipping a whole Rails/Laravel/Wordpress app to the user to be run in their browser with sqlite. Technically you wou

It's not clear to me what a "container" and "pairing" is in this context. What if my application is not dockerized? Can Claude Code execute tests by itself in the context of the container when not paired? This requi

People who want the Good Stuff in life acquire taste and expertise or rely on the opinion of trusted people who have taste and expertise. It's always been like this. Otherwise acquiring the Good Stuff is a matter of random chance.

This is not just for LLM code. This is for any code that is written by anyone except yourself. A new engineer at Google, for example, cannot hit the ground running and make significant changes to the Google algorithm without months of &quot

I, as an engineer, absolutely support keeping private APIs private in order to preserve the performance of products. This is a good policy decision and a good engineering decision. Allowing others to build products on top of private APIs cr

In order to build a high performance product you have to control all of the API surfaces. Apple devices battery life would suffer if any shoddily written third party device could operate with crappy drivers for it.

by _1tem 1y ago
It’s about the fact that opening your API limits your own engineering capabilities. A device with an open API has a different security and performance profile. So Apple has to sabotage their own devices performance and security to let other

The 25% number you quoted is for the entire European market including Russia and the Middle East not just the EU. Actual EU market is around 7%. Anyway the point is, Apple lost 0 market share even after they pulled out.

The Russian market is not tiny, it is literally the largest economy in Europe with the highest GDP per capita for 2025 when adjusted for PPP. It is also has the highest population in Europe. If they can pull out of Russia and lose nothing w

Despite Apple’s exit from Russia after the 2022 invasion, StatCounter data shows iOS share actually rose from ~27.5% in Aug 2021 to ~32% in 2025 in Russia. If Apple left the EU they would lose nothing.

If we want to see what the actual impact on Apple’s market share would be if they pulled out of the EU market, consider Russia as a case study. Since Apple pulled out of Russia in 2022, the market share of iOS devices has remained steady an

Few die hards? We have an actual case study: Russia. Apple does not sell in Russia anymore but market share has increased. Here’s a comparison of iOS share in Russia (mobile OS) between August 2025 vs August 2023, using StatCounter data: •

Evidence: Open source devs and Google and Microsoft have been trying to build MacBook Pro laptop performance for decades and failed. The entire performance advantage of Apple products is due to their tightly controlled integration of the ha

It’s not about ease of implementation. It’s impossible to build Apple Silicon level of quality in power to watt performance or realtime audio apps over public APIs. Just look at how open source devs failed to fix battery issues with Framewo

They might do it tomorrow. That’s the threat made in the last press release. But obviously they’re going to try and talk it out first with the EU

There is simply no good way to make the API public while maintaining the performance and quality expectations that Apple consumers have. If the third party device doesn’t work people will blame Apple even though it’s not their fault. Just l

The entire premise of Apple is building highly tuned private APIs. It’s what makes things like Apple Silicon battery performance and power to watt ratio possible. This kind of super fine tuning is practically impossible over a public API bo

EU consumers will travel to other countries or buy through second hand markets, which is what happens in Russia now. Apple will lose little revenue. Apple can easily spin this as a win to shareholders showing how much competitive advantage

Nobody said the EU wouldn’t survive. But EU consumers will be very angry at Brussels.
