Guarantee this is a ploy to chase off the 'less committed' employees (read: less desperate), while not having to announce mass layoffs.

Most folks find change between their couch cushions, but I guess this is what you're left with after Vance visits...

Super cool! I came across this a few days ago myself actually, and it's really cool how easy it is to set up. Sadly I'm running Windows at the moment on my main gaming rig, so I'm still using Sunshine for now.

There was a Minions 2??

This is exactly it, they're going to feed all this data into a model to try and get an AI to be able to perform operations in the OS like a human would.

Which on the surface of it sounds reasonable, but only if they actually paid people to generate that data for them. And this isn't even touching the privacy aspects of a record of everything you do being generated and stored in plaintext.

You underestimate my power, I see a Settings menu, and instantly enter a fugue state, 30 minutes pass and I suddenly come back to myself, my desktop environment looks entirely different, the windows are wobbly, and GTK window theming is broken.

I need help

Yeah that's exactly the thing, people freak out so much about China having access to their data, but act much less concerned when it comes to their own government potentially having access to said data. One of these options has the ability to affect your life if they don't like your data, and it isn't China.

(Not to get me wrong, I think no government should have access to one's data, moreso pointing out the double standard)

Oh interesting, I never knew about that side of Kagi. The fact the company is focused so hard on AI is a red flag. I don't think I'll renew my subscription when it comes up later this year, given how erratic their plans seem.

Agreed, you're probably going to run into network bottlenecks before storage read times become an issue

Given what I've read about his management style, the more time he spends on Twitter, the better it is for his employees.

Something something Engels something something justified hierarchy

Yeah exactly this, the main bottleneck when writing code is either reading the existing code or thinking about how I want to implement some logic, not how I move my cursor and writing the code itself.
