They only logged the IP. That’s metadata. IIRC Apple refused backdooring its phone encryption. That’s a lot more invasive.

Yes, actually at my job a co-worker just found exactly such a bug yesterday: Debug build zeroed out the variable and the release build didn’t. So the bug only occurred in the release build, but could not be reproduced on the debug build where the developers work on. So in the end he found it because of the different compiler flags used for debug vs release builds at our work place.

Yep, variables that are merely declared are not initialized, so their value is not guaranteed. Could be anything.

You’re charging the class for a thought crime!!

Horrible code. First, it doesn’t compile because there’s no ; at the end of the class definition.

And then more importantly you have a private destructor which means this CriminalScum’s destructor will never be called, so you can’t charge it with distruction either. Or are you telling me this CriminalScum has friends?

Apple products were never really ergonomic, so having over half a kilo dragging down your face seems to be a normal continuation of their design language. The battery on a cable however and the outside-facing screen seem like obvious bad design decisions that just contribute to the unpleasant weight distribution.

And it tries to sell a VR device as an AR device without any real killer use case other than integrating it nicely into their other products. Alone from the tech it’s impressive. Their new R1 and M2 chips do great work and the price reflects how much effort was put into it. But that alone doesn’t sell the device.

Even the positive reviews were mixed and pointed out grave flaws.

In my opinion, for this to take off it actually needs to provide significant advantages for people to accept wearing a comfortable sensor suite plus computer on their head in front of their eyes. We haven’t seen any of this yet… from any product in the space.

Definitely not a fad. It’s used all over the industry. It gives you a lot more control over the environment where your hosted apps run. There may be some overhead, but it’s worth it.

The video was indeed very impressive, even if not very practical. Not surprised that it’s not the actual experience. Not the best move by Google when everybody is already talking about AI hype.

Sure, but hype will evaporate into a cloud of hate if claims like these don’t hold up. Especially when you’re the underdog and “unknown” relative to Apple. We’ve seen this with Magic Leap for instance. Or with No Man’s Sky to take an example from Gaming.

Quite a bold claim coming from a technology that so far has suffered from input/output delay causing nausea, warping at close range and noise in low light. I’ve tested both the XR-3 and the Quest 3 and while the pass-through technology has come far, I would never confuse it with my own sight.

Good to see direct competition to Apple’s headset though.

Might be more humane after all

The problem is that better wages, better working conditions and fewer hours were never a result of technology freeing up workers, but strong labor movements. The technology only allows capitalists to keep increasing productivity without letting it cost them more.

So tech isn’t bad. Farmers produce more food, which is good as we need that. But yeah, as a farmer you’re not looking at a growing labor market.

A recent one I watched started with 10minutes bad, fake reality TV scenes of an employee stealing from his company. It was hilarious and fun. I also appreciated the exact details about how he stole money. I did get confused however when 250k apparently got him a house, a ship and a new car.

Might be a problem with the factory then.

You gotta allocate your GFs statically or this just keeps happening.

Dude, imagine taking the time out of your day to actually make a meme (like the one posted). I really can’t be bothered.

And: you don’t solve any fundamental problems if you don’t have the data for it. If the information isn’t in your data, the network will start guessing and it will be horrible.

Exactly.

Just wait for the replacable battery in the iPhone 16. They’ll sell it as an innovation.

How can they even compare them? Nobody even suggested that COVID is similar to the other two. Cancer isn’t even a virus and left to their own devices COVID is probably the less dangerous one.

Also cancer isn’t just a single disease, there are multiple conditions that can lead to cancer and they all have different chances of survival.
