No. You can’t game on it meaning that the games do not even launch.

I don’t think your experience is representative of a generic user. This video from Level1Techs paints a completely different picture. Gaming for example, is pretty much out of the picture in the ARM version of Windows.

Does it? All of the “windows on arm” video I’ve seen say that tons of things are broken.

You do realize that the ifixit solderimg iron also has firmware and that you need to connect it to a computer or their very expensive battery pack to adjust its settings, right?

The dude hires people for programming positions and a lot of people use their GitHub as a portfolio, basically. He was saying that if you don’t have that, you’re basically not even considered for the job.

In summary, this specific case was about it being basically a requirement to program 24/7. Which is pretty toxic.

Then you’re lacking context and have been arguing without understanding what I was referring to.

Luke at LTT works in the development side of the company (floatplane for example) and the “side projects” are public repos in github/gitlab/etc.

“easily”? Please, name one device that has UWB and doesn’t include bluetooth.

Besides, if this is included in 6.0 and assuming it does cost much more per chip, where’s the harm in having a better feature set? This seems like an incredibly pointless discussion.

But it’s still sitting in front of a computer programming. I do that but not that often. I’m already programming 8-9 hours a day. My interests go way beyond that.

Well yeah, it hasn’t been released yet. Is this your idea of a joke?

Not all phones have UWB. On the other hand, they do have Bluetooth.

Having hobbies outside of your profession does not mean you’re a “drone”. Quite the opposite.

I think we misunderstood each other. I was also referring to the company. Well, both actually.

*there

None of the things you mentioned justify having a toxic hiring policy/work culture.

FindMy tags? Like the ones Pebblebee and Chipolo make.

Even Luke, who I always agreed with the most and seemed the most level-headed has talked about their hiring process and said that, if you don’t have personal projects, it’s highly unlikely that you’ll be considered for a position in LTT.

Supposedly it’s because that shows a “lack of passion”. Personally, I find that rather toxic. Like, dude, I do this for work and I also have a life. I literally do not have enough time to exercise, take care of my loved ones and also maintain personal projects.

It’s their inventory, it’s their fault.

Not really, no. Sources of infornation gain a reputation as time goes on. So, even though you should still check with multiple sources, you can sort of know if a certain bit of information is likely to be correct or not.

On the other hand, LLM’s will quote different sources and sometimes it will only provide them if you ask it to. Even then it can hallucinate and quote a source that doesn’t actually exist, so there’s that as well.

And even if it’s showing the correct number, you can’t be sure how trustworthy the source is.

Apple is a shitty company but ok, as long as you’re happy.

Some manufacturers do that and it sucks. But 1) that’s a midrange phone that costs about half of what an iphone would cost 2) it’s very gimmicky. The accesories idea is cool but it was never going to work and it made the phone overpriced for the chipset 3) this is something the manufacturer did, it’s “android’s” fault.

Next time buy from a brand that has a better reputation and stay away from gimmicks.
