Typo: prescribed burns.

One of the most ridiculous pairs of approximate homophones in the English language.

Proscribed = forbidden. Prescribed = recommended/required.

Whoops, thanks.

I skipped macOS 26 (except on my work laptop, where it’s crap), but I don’t think iOS 26 is significantly worse overall than iOS 18.

Same here. And I was seriously impressed with how much noise cancelling the v4 can do. I will be seriously impressed again if the v5 is as much better as they claim.

The price is so reasonable, I think the risk is that you’re paying mainly with your data?

Perhaps not if the one framework we ended up with was a good one …

I mean, there's certainly silly money involved, but there's surely no credible doubt that AI is already really good at many valuable tasks.

So if there's a crash, doesn't that just leave us with a bunch of useful AI hardware whose costs have been written off? I wouldn't have thought that much changes what social impacts AI is going to have.

Yes — configuring strongSwan as a bog-standard VPN server was so hard to fathom I made GitHub repo for it [1]. To be fair, some of the complexity comes from OS support that seems specifically designed to make secure setups difficult, presumably at the behest of various Three Letter Agencies.

I have now mostly switched to Wireguard for this, which is much more sane [2].
