It seems like the fix should be really really simple, but maybe I'm missing something: instead of giving the AI a sandboxed environment and telling it "go wild", give it an (appare…

Right, linux should instead go by the normal extension for an elf, which is no extension... instead this problem is solved by prompting the user if they want to execute the program…

Where's the other 300k going? If you aren't spending it, what does it matter if it all gets taxed to nothing? And if you end up spending it, then boom there's your consumption that…

Some file formats, eg png, require a particular file header in order to be considered valid. This is true regardless of your operating system, be it windows or linux. If that is hi…

Am I missing something? Hiding things from users is a property of the windows approach. Did you reply to the wrong person?

the linux way works tho

The odd thing is the non conditional "before it lands" rather than "if it lands".

Very odd proposal. The new element syntax is perhaps the boldest choice. I wonder why they thought that was necessary. The idea of using this to defer rendering elements is also od…

Sometimes humans talk not purely to accomplish things but rather for human contact and comradery.

The reason is that clients, even under xhtml, expect to be able to build webpages via templating. You need to reject that assumption and demand that servers build pages from an ast…

the only reason anyone would be interested in this result is because of the implication that it generalizes to other sites.

There are rss aggregators that poll every feed occasionally, then combine them into a single feed for each person to consume. Nostr works on a similar basis but you push to the agg…
