Steve Jobs and his Thoughts on Flash
2010 April 29th

Steve Jobs penned a controversial open letter titled “Thoughts on Flash” while he was CEO of Apple, criticizing Adobe Flash and outlining why it would not be permitted on Apple’s iOS hardware. Jobs’ reasons included poor security, high energy consumption, a lack of touch support, and a claim that Flash was effectively a closed system. Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen described the letter as an attack. Publications initially had varied responses to the letter, though tended to agree retrospectively that Jobs was right.

A letter to perfectionists.
"Perfectionism is not a quest for the best. It is a pursuit of the worst in ourselves, the part that tells us nothing we do will ever be good enough" - Julia Cameron

Rewriting Project Claw Code

> Someone inside Anthropic, got switched to Adaptive reasoning mode
> Their Claude Code switched to Sonnet
> Committed the .map file of Claude Code
> Effectively leaking the ENTIRE CC Source Code

@realsigridjin
was tired after running 2 south korean hackathons in SF, saw the leak
> Rules in Korea are different, he cloned the repo, went to sleep
> Wakes up to 25K stars, and his GF begging him to take it down (she's a copyright lawyer)
> Their team decided - how about we have agents rewrite this in Python!? Surely... this is more legal
> Rewrite in Py
> Board a plane to SK🇰🇷
> One of the guys decides python is slow, is now rewriting ALL OF CLAUDE CODE into Rust.
> Anthropic cannot take down, cannot sue
> Is this "fair use?"
> TL;DR - we're about to have open source Claude Code in Rust

🤥 WhatsApp’s “encryption” may be the biggest consumer fraud in history — deceiving billions of users. Despite its claims, it reads users’ messages and shares them with third parties. Telegram has never done this — and never will 🤝

⚠️ WhatsApp’s “End-to-end encryption by default” claim is a giant consumer fraud.

📖 ~95% of private messages on WhatsApp end up in plain-text backups on Apple/Google servers — not E2E-encrypted. Backup encryption is optional, and few people enable it — let alone use strong passwords.

🔑Even if you encrypt your WhatsApp backups with a strong password, your messages still end up in unencrypted cloud backups — because 90%+ of the people you message haven’t done the same. Add the fact that WhatsApp stores and discloses who you chat with, and the picture is dire.

📤 Apple and Google disclose backed-up WhatsApp messages to third parties thousands of times per year. Meanwhile, Telegram hasn’t disclosed a single byte of users’ messages in its entire 12+ year history 💬
