I might get one. I've been using a mini for years and am pretty much giving up on Apple ever making one again. The AI features finally seem worth an upgrade, and I don't love the size of the Air, standard iPhone, or Pro/Max m

Nice touch with the "one more thing". OTOH, Steve must be rolling over in his grave about the stylus-on-iPhone capability.

The audience for this sort of thing is currently quite limited. It may grow more in the future, especially if prices get out of control, but for now, it's a relatively small subset of people.

Completely agree. I don't think my writing style has changed much, but there are times when I think of writing a sentence and then reconsider because "it sounds too much like AI to me". Scary!

Yeah, when I read this sentence I thought, "well, maybe you're just incorrectly classifying non-obvious LLM writing as human writing, which makes your hypothesis unfalsifiable".

I agree completely, but how does that relate to my comment (saying it's cat and mouse, the game may never end, and Pangram's current success isn't indicative of future value)?

Seems like it's a cat and mouse game that won't end anytime soon. LLMs are constantly getting better at writing, so at some point people won't be able to tell reliably tell the difference anymore. I wouldn't laude Pangra

Weird, I read this in English and don't know why it would have copied the link to the Spanish language page. It doesn't look like I can change the link here, sorry.

Your point about interest payments on the debt doesn't seem to support the assertion that we should go into more debt. It's not like we have a choice about continuing to make interest payments, which makes it a false comparison. R

Is it also murder to fail to save the lives of the millions of more people we could save if we went into trillions more debt?

> 5. It has enough storage left for your app. This is the wildest part. It seems that sub-250MB apps are the rarity now. So every 4 apps I install is 1GB. I guess it's good for Apple, since they know you can't back up to your S

If this works, I expect Big Food to boost the hell out of it. It has some plausible benefits over GLP-1s (avoiding uncomfortable side effects, which in rare cases continue after patients go off the drugs), and obviously it's better for

You're right that $200/mo is much cheaper than comparable infrastructure. OTOH, you don't get to have a computer that can also be used for other applications, or which works when the internet is down. Also, you remain tethere

There are objectively far more hits when you search HN comments for "people" than "humans". So while I would not negate your experience, I would say that your assertion that "at least on HN, almost no one refers to
