I am astounded that Apple shipped the new Siri in iOS 27 at this low level of quality.
- Worse speech recognition
- Broken: mixes up AM/PM, fails to complete tasks used to work
- Asks a follow-up then stops listening; forgot what it asked
- Worse than GPT 3.5 as an AI

New manager? Admire how veteran leaders handle tough convos, and feel like you're not "fluent" in the same language🤔? You're not alone. Books and training teach rules, but don't train your brain. That's where practice comes in. Details in our latest blog: managerspring.com/blog/manag… #Leadership #NewManager #LeadershipCoaching
I have 2 modest proposals:
*Mobile operator* that charges calls/SMS outside my contacts a nominal fee and credits my account. No more robo.
*Checking account* that requires 2FAC auth to initiate payments (1 time or recurring) why are bank accts less protected than my X acct.

What’s happening within Warner’s software team that the HBOMax ➡️ Max rebrand wasn’t just an app update?
Artifact is rapidly becoming my go-to for all kinds of news. I'm now realizing how much of my Twitter usage was for curated news, which it did poorly but better than anything else.
I feel like the number of conversations has plummeted and my feed is mostly news outlet bots these days. Blue Sky? Mastodon? Where’d everyone go?
So @hbomax is becoming just "max"? Seems like an unforced error at a time when the service is just starting to recover from multiple poor rebrands and confusion between the app / cable channel / etc.
I’ll never understand why this wasn’t the product all along

Curious whether we’ll see mainstream-level investment in other game franchises. Last of Us is not the only great story. What do you want to see?
The Last of Us set a new bar for mainstream success.
Even without the finale, the game-to-tv adaptation was the most in-demand TV show during its run according to @ParrotAnalytics. venturebeat.com/games/hbos-t…
My Safe Search is set to "moderate". ChatGPT must be set to "shit a pot dealer might say"?
I was showing off the new #Bing chat to my 10yo son. He was going on about whether water is "wet" or "sticky" and if the difference is only a matter of degree. Here's Bing's take..

We launched this first for Quest Pro last year, I'm really proud of the team for pulling off being able to bring this to Quest 2 users! Being able to quickly look up a game tip or message friend while playing VR is awesome.

As some of you have started to notice, we're rolling out a direct touch experiment with v50. It's a massive step forward in Hands usability in the Shell. It's powered by the Interaction SDK, so you can easily build the same interactions in your app. reddit.com/r/OculusQuest/com…
Now I’m getting ads in my Twitter feed saying “The New Bing Is Here!”
From what I can tell it’s just a few canned queries unless you’ve been accepted into the waitlist (press??). Soooooo weeeeeird. Wasteful.
