    I agree with all points and they are the reason I'm very selective which project uses it and which doesn't. It did give me some ideas for my own stylesheet writing though. The colo…

    I'm unsure if non-profit funds can be used in that way for a (technically) private inquiry.

    Yes, and there is currently talks if this also means NGOs like FragDenStaat or media outlets could no longer request information.

    Any PR will get the same quality review. It's just that they now have a fast lane so they don't have to invest that much time to review a PR they won't fix properly and/or support.…

    Seems like the failsafe also failed today.

    At least I (living in the EU) received an email at work on the 18th that had this section under "What has changed": 2. Verification Data. As part of our efforts to ensure the secur…

    Maybe it is because it is still in development, but building and running the Hello World example just gives me a blank terminal and a white window that is not responding.

    This argument is used again and again and I wonder: Why do "people with money" stay where they are when there are countries, islands, even just states where there is less taxes to …

    I think every aspect within their opposition is sound and generally to keep the web open and predictable (unlike other oppositions like the Filesystem API).

    I just wonder how a highly non-deterministic API like the Prompt API can work in a system that heavily focuses on interop between new and old websites. What's going to happen is th…

    Yeah I wonder, who says I can't build a "cryptominer like" script that injects into many websites and just uses this local LLM api, performs a request from a queue and sends the re…

    I know you're probably joking, but I was curious how hard it would be. const cToF = c => c * 9/5 + 32; const a = cToF(31);

    A blank cheque to restrict access to any website they want.

    I actually did have to manually disable this from Germany, so it might be a different reason you don't have it?

    So this effectively means, if you buy a new phone and want to set it up, you'll have to do it tomorrow, because of an arbitrary flow Google created to save their play store percent…

    Is this really the state of AI in 2026? It takes over your entire browser to center a div... and then fails to do so?

    Comment #47058645

    I usually would post it in our dev slack chat and rant for a message or two how many hours were lost "reverse-engineering" bad documentation. But I probably wouldn't post about it …

    You are assuming: A) That everyone who saw this would go as far as post publicly about it (and not just chuckle / send it their peers privately) and B) Any post about this would re…

    A while ago they changed their TOS from something along the lines of "We will never sell your data" to "Your data is safe"

    Feels like I've been hearing "Update X makes Y worse" or "Update X destroys hardware Y" a lot more this year with Windows. Seems like they are fully embracing AI at Microsoft.

    Given the horrible stability of Windows this year, it seems like Microsoft went all in on that

    Isn't it odd? All those tech CEOs tell us that we won't be able to live in a world without AI, how AI will be within every single app, service or codebase eventually... And then th…
