Ollama uses "consumer UI guidelines", it's the second worst AI tool to use for anything more than writing fanfic.

If you write more good code by hand than by agent in 2026 that says more about you than anything else (either your ability to give instructions or your ability to delegate). The co…

I agree with most of your points too. But some of them are kinda bullshit. For instance, why would you blame Google for unattended kids dumb enough to go on a "5h" wilderness trip …

I attribute this to a hazy memory of "previous ways". Either that or you're in some very well supplied area. I remember not being able to get books, I remember walking for hours in…

All of Amazon, Apple, all the AI stuff, Google, including YouTube, yes. They make tons of money for the US. Value is somewhat more subjective, but Amazon for instance certainly cre…

Read the post. It's all fear mongering around a very balanced response from the WMF. Could they engage in union-busting? Sure. Did they? No.
