Tesla’s profits and market share has been declining for the past few years and it’s basically an overpriced meme stock.

Are cursor developers “competent” in creating frontier models? Aren’t they just using other company’s models?

Samsung both sells premium hardware and manufactures a lot of it own components in house and sales components to other manufacturers including Apple. I consider Samsung “successful”. Every single low margin PC company that exists now like

I don’t care if a company monitors which websites I go to on a work computer, what applications I run or what I say on Slack. On the other hand I would be looking for another job if they had keyloggers or were taking screenshots even if the

Successful == decently profitable with decent profit margins. Someone else mentioned LG with an annual profit of $2.4 billion as a “successful” company.

So did you think when I was talking about Apple I was comparing them to a company that sold power tools? But Dell’s profits cratered so bad that they took the company private and profits are still nothingburgers. Sony just sold off controll

I used v0 for a vibe coded internal admin app. *BUT* I downloaded the source code from Vercel’s site, built and deployed in a Docker container (I never download random npm packages to my local computer), deployed the Docker container to Lam

I would buy Mac hardware running Windows long before I would buy x86 hardware running MacOS. In fact Mac OS on x86 was really nothing remarkable. Macs were objectively worse than most Windows PCs during the last few years on x86 at least

Name one other successfully computer hardware company? PC makers are barely profitable commodities, other phone companies aside from Samsung are making pennies, the Microsoft XBox division is on life support, Sony sold off its TV division.

You can’t compare Apple to any other company. Apple is the only successful consumer hardware company (with Samsung being a distant second). They can afford to sit out the AI arms race. You can’t be a software company without an AI story

I have used Gemini, I have a personal subscription to ChatGPT and a corporate $5000/month allowance to Claude. How is it better than either? How is it doing as a revenue making product?

I would hope that Apple doesn’t follow Google’s lead. Google has the attention span of a crack addled flea and struggles to make great products

And neither does Google. The latest version of Chrome requires the version of Android released in 2019. The latest version of iOS supports my iPad released in 2019.

As I said in another reply, Apple just did a security update for the iPhone 5s released in 2013 January of this year. The latest version of iOS runs on iPads back to 2919. The latest version of Chrome requires the version of Android - relea

No, if they said they were running on separate VMs I wouldn’t have any issues. Absolutely no serious company would run their web software on a shared Apache server with other tenants. How did that shared hosting work out for Vercel?

The iPhone 5s - released in 2013 - just got an update January 2026. The latest version of Chrome requires the version of Android released in 2019. Even phones that old aren’t getting other security updates. Is that really the argument you

by raw_anon_1111 5mo ago
So exactly why is that a big deal when unlike Android - they actually keep their phones updated?

It’s a perfect argument- use your own agency and intelligence to choose products from reliable companies instead of depending on the government. It’s like complaining about items from TEMU aren’t high quality and expecting the government to

Then don’t buy a phone from a company with a piss poor record of customer service. Just looking in maps, there are three Apple Stores within a 45 minute drive from where I live in central Florida. The situation is worse in my hometown in So

Because the same “web development” done with v0, downloaded, put in a Docker container, deployed to Lambda, with fine grain access control on the attached IAM role (all of which I’ve done) wouldn’t have that problem. Oh and I never download

Well, I know that you have never heard of someone using a third party SaaS product at any major cloud provider compromising all of their customers accounts. Are you really defending Vercel as a hosting platform that anyone should take serio
