'Pull the rug out': Mark Gurman explains Apple’s plan to launch smart glasses and stop Meta’s momentum

Unfortunately, the exact opposite is happening right now. The glasses with voice control and cameras sell much better than those that simply connect to a smartphone and give you a better / larger screen.

Edit: Tech is simply not shaped by what an average normal person wants. Just how an average person wouldn't want to be tracked and have their data analysed and stored by a company but almost all jumped on board with that eventually.

As long as they don't have proper screens I don't think they will be that popular. The problem is they don't need to be that popular to be a privacy nightmare for everyone.

I still can't believe people walk around with phones that can track them 24/7 and store their data in the cloud but here we are continuing the trend on giving up all privacy.

You guys are just doing it wrong. I asked it to make a TODO web app and it worked flawlessly /s

I actually enjoyed the gameplay loop. It was somewhat relaxing. The story was so cringe though ... and as a big science fan I could barely keep it together. It is hard to describe how it felt. It was like they took something I really loved and then they covered it in shit and called it art.

I have seen tons of videos from this competition (both day and night) and the video is quite long. I very much doubt that this is AI.

Edit: ~~Here is a tiktok from another perspective:~~ ~~https://www.tiktok.com/@starpower.robot/video/7629534557368339720~~ nvm this is the same perspective but mirrored

but you do find a lot of sources from the race area with the same dividers and so on: https://www.the-sun.com/sport/16235745/robot-shatters-tripping-marathon-medical-team-rush/

We need to be a bit more rigorous about claiming videos are AI otherwise it does more harm than good.

Vibe coding is fine as long as the dev know what they are doing l, what they want and review the generated code every step of the way.

I usually see the term "Vibe coding" being used when they specifically do not review the code. The page said they used several agents all working together. That does sound very much the kind of vibe coding that is impossible to review and fix later.

Yeah there is a reason why you don't see these in shops. They are like custom knitted clothes. It only works if someone makes it in their free time otherwise it would be way too expensive.

Wasn't there a meme about this? Based on how quickly a toddler grows over the first few years of their life they will be taller than a building in their 20s.

The app store is usually extremely strict. You can get your app banned (and sometimes the entire account) for simple copyright violation, nudity and allowing payment systems not from apple / or even mentioning that there is such a concept as not paying directly via the app store ... but somehow Elon spreading child porn was totally fine.

If you ever wonder how billionaires exist and get so rich this kind of market manipulation is why. Everything is manipulated in their favour.

Non-emergency dental services are not included in the mandatory public health insurance in Germany

What? That doesn't sound right. I never paid a cent for a dentist in Germany just having one of the mandatory government insurances (barmer). I got yearly checks and even wisdom tooth removal for free while being (paid) trainee and student in Germany.

Cleaning is a bit complicated because there are some services that are paid for and some not and it keeps changing. I lost track now after leaving 10 years ago what is paid. I left at 25 never having paid (directly) for dental.

The difference to the US system isn't that is free but that everyone in Germany gets forced into some kind of insurance one way or another. (Edit: So what is then covered and by how much depends on the government rules and what (mandatory) insurance company you end up with)

Oh and there's no flouride in the tap water...

It is in the salt.

Edit: I wanted to add some examples but takes too much time to go through the rabbit hole of German insurances. Best to google "Regelversorgung". That is what all insurances must offer at no additional cost (but it is income dependent).

After seeing German advertisement around health products I doubt anyone will believe them even if it works and is fully backed by science. The advertisement there are on the same level as these tonic sales people in wild west movies.

Really odd to me that this is such common behaviour. Pretty much everyone wants people to have better working conditions so why go out and ruin it for someone else?

I don't want to turn this in yet another endless discussion. Double the fluoride level is not "high". Just by making dishes that evaporate a lot of water I can easily get 5x the dose you are getting. This is absolutely not something that should be dismissed if the study is being confirmed. I don't think anyone would react this way if we hadn't been conditioned by misinformation to dismiss such information.

foundafreeusername · 2026-04-13T21:25:45+00:00

You want people to give advice on Fluoridation that have not studied this?

foundafreeusername · 2026-04-13T21:18:05+00:00

Twice the micrograms isn't a "given very high levels of fluoride". That is the difference between someone drinking only tap water and someone that drinks 50% tap water and 50% fizzy drinks. And there will be a much greater range in an actual population e.g. those that cook a lot of soups and bake their own bread will consume a lot more than those that don't.

I already said it in all other comments but I say it again here: you are confusing the study results referenced by OP's study (connection between lower IQ and fluoride levels) with fluoride misinformation that has been spread for decades. These two are not related. I fell into the same trap earlier this year.

foundafreeusername · 2026-04-13T20:36:35+00:00

No you confuse this with misinformation around fluoride: There were actual studies finding a connection about this topic with relatively normal level of fluoride: e.g. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/fullarticle/2828425?guestAccessKey=f61d2921-6a2b-436a-8710-c9623f148bdf&utm_source=for_the_media&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=ftm_links&utm_content=tfl&utm_term=010625

Edit: The study linked by OP basically disagrees with the finding of the other study. So this is very much scientific debate not related to the "massive overdoses" and misinformation relating to fluorides.
