Journalist, anecdontalist. I work for the company. But don't let that fool you, I'm really an okay guy. There is no future in England's dreaming.

Last Notes npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge Someone should probably tell Rishi Sunak that if he seriously believes that young people are being radicalised, teaching them how to shoot modern weapons might not have the outcome he thinks it will. npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge One of the delights of this time of year: the tiny fledglings working out that you can go into the peanut feeder and just grab food. The little floofball at the top hasn’t got it yet npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge I would be much more supportive of compulsory national service for 50-60 year olds. The ones who got free education, affordable housing to buy, etc. It’s about time we gave something back to our country. npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge I'm sure they will! This is going to be dissected deeply as soon as the code is out in the wild. And rightly so. npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge Lots of if's there. You need admin access to get to that file – there's videos around showing this – so the user would have to explicitly allow an app access to it. In that sense, it's more secure than most other files on your system. npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge The funny thing about Microsoft's new Recall feature is how little actual "AI" it's doing. It's basically just making automatic screen captures, then running OCR and image recognition to create a semantic index you can search. Unless I'm missing something, there's no LLM (or small language model) used in it. Maybe in parsing queries? npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge The only reason that companies stop reporting stuff like this is because the numbers look crap and they want to hide it. npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge It’s almost as if competition ends up giving customers better options than leaving it all to one company. Who knew??? npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge It’s almost as if opening up the iPhone encourages innovation, which benefits users over the long term. Who knew??? npub1vjwg82kv5n4dkpst7w0627e7nhepmejhjjsssrr4kcrgpur9j7dqmnnqg0 Ian Betteridge MINOR SNARK ALERT! One of the most amusing parts of the Apple/DOJ and Apple/DMA cases has been seeing various Apple fans do a 180 turn. From crowing about how Apple was taking over 100% of all the profits in the entire global smartphone market to "poor little Apple has a tiny market share it's all so unfair" in the space of weeks.
