Language evolves. Why is a computer program not an “app(lication)” exactly?

That’s technically correct, but actually wrong.

I don’t get what the intended message was here. Is it just supposed to be funny picture or is there some deeper meaning behind it?

Because from what I can see muffin of value is going on here.

That is a long tongue.

I think we have that. It’s called Uber.

This might be the dumbest take I’ve heard today.

Everything your smartphone does your laptop can do, too. Therefore, smartphones are useless!!

Everything AR can do that your smartphone can do today will be a hundred times more convenient because you don’t have to carry a slab of glass with you all the time. You just have to wear glasses. Like I already do anyway.

The only reason for smartphones to still exist in a world where AR is compact will be if we can’t figure out a way to efficiently input data without annoying everyone around us. As soon as that problem's solved, nobody will be using smartphones anymore.

Yep, that’s why I was thinking of that example 😄

I agree. But unfortunately, nobody gives a flying fuck.

In theory, there’s a Million awesome business applications for it.

Let’s say you’re in construction and your glasses tell you exactly what to build where and how.

You’re a waiter and the glasses tell you which table ordered what, needs attention, etc.

You’re a network engineer and the glasses show you on every port which device is connected.

And don’t even get me started on the military applications.

Of course we’re not there yet. But that’s why they’re so obsessed with it. They want to be the first.

That mitigation timeline is brutal.

Peralezes place? If so, that’d be my answer too. I just love the contrast between his place and the city. It’s like being warm inside while it’s pouring rain outside.

I feel like if AI would’ve written this, it would make more sense. This reads more like a fever dream.
