    Recommend a web article to speech tool

    I'd like to give a URL to an article to some app and have it read the article out loud to me. I tried the Android apps of ChatGPT and Gemini already but neither of them could do it…

    Right. Also, when it comes to the other aspects of TLS, such as preventing middlemen from making sense of what information flows between you and the server, what exactly is the thr…

    Besides just porn or nudity, maybe we could also add violence into the arsenal of engagement. For example, maybe the viewer could use a virtual sword or shotgun on some key concept…

    > Does anyone know of other major projects written in as strict a style as esbuild? As in any random major project with focus on not having dependencies? SQLite comes to mind.

    It's also not an exhaustive list anyway. At least Helsinki, Finland is missing. I think Finland is unambigiously Europe.

    I don't know what the question implied but generally speaking it is a known effect that making AI do the things you used to do accumulates cognitive debt which seems intuitively tr…

    Offtopic, and no one asked, but I'm going to advertise anyway: Helix is a good alternative to (neo)vim for anyone who wants a terminal editor with vimotions(ish) but doesn't like c…

    Many commenters have pointed out the frustration that even in these kernel level anti cheat system using games there are still cheaters and therefore the sacrifice of submitting to…

    It's not the target that is now requiring new instructions, but one of the components in the build tools.

    As far as I understand, there was a similar mess with CPUs some 50 years ago: All computers were different and there was no such thing as portable code. Then problem solvers came u…

    Are you implying there exists a better way of making UIs that just hasn't taken over the world for some reason? I also don't like the state of the web.

    Chat bots require a special API I suppose, but an intelligent agent would just learn to use the existing way for programs communicating with other programs over a network. Unfortun…

    Where Are the Intelligent Robots?

    I recently watched a YouTube video where someone reacted to Sam Altman's statements. One comment he made left me wondering if I've missed something in the current "AI summer." Altm…

    Perhaps "trust" was a bit misplaced here, but I think we can all agree on the idea: Before LLMs, there was intelligence behind text, and now there's not. The I in LLM stands for in…

    Where are we at with automating commercial software development?

    I know I can discuss matters and get code snippets from ChatGPT but is it yet viable to integrate some AI-whatever to an IDE and some project management system and just observe the…

    While you're at it at making your "infrastructure as code" cloud agnostic perhaps take a look at tools like Terraform (the only one I'm familiar with). I've just started the work o…
