err... really? Soooo youtube premium costs $13 CAD, You're saying that google would make MORE money off me if I cancelled that, turned off my ad blocker and just watched videos wit…

If that is the case that I can not understand how a few cents extra from ad spots will make the difference.

I need to say as someone who also really really cares about the craft. About doing things right. LLMs have been a massive boon to me, because they're the only entity in this world …

Has anyone figured out why so many corps do this? It always feels like it's one step from: * Of course do whatever you want! * Nah I'm a big dumb idiot who doesn't know whats good …

If there has anything I have learned in my life it is this: "the world is just. solutions are easy. and if people are suffering, then they deserve it. if they would just try to sol…

Because for most people, someone reacting with disinterest for the thing they care about is a rare and upsetting event, not their entire life's experience. That's what it means to …

I don't find highlighting text on mobile to be too difficult, so I don't see that as a barrier imo. for disabilities well... That one I dunno. I don't have a good concept of what k…

Well... Yah. For the record I'm saying this to trick humans into making better comments for humans. It is very difficult to convince people to do this otherwise, in my experience. …

Just some food for thought: I was recently brainstorming ideas for building a more decentralized moderation system, and one of the ideas I arrived at was using the rules themselves…

The most effective argument I have for getting other developers to comment their code is "The agent will read it and it will give better suggestions". Truly perverse, but it works.…

Just wanted to highlight your last point so that it's clear. Microsoft reimplementing the authors project was exactly what they wanted! To see a different implementation. A differe…

Wow this is as cool as hell!!!! I think I'm going to make the switch to this. I'm a logseq devotee but this is really addressing pain points I have with that application.

Adversarial compatability is not a reason to mock a competitor to an entrenched monopoly. I have no love for Microsoft, but the idea that a locked in monopoly, responsible for tain…

IANAL as well. but I have to say, if typing into typing Google into the Bing search and getting a page that looks almost exactly like Google can't be proven as intent to deceive, t…

It's honestly depressing. Any normal human would be sued into complete oblivion over this. But everyone knows that these laws arn't meant to be used against companies like this. On…

Wait can you give an example? I don't think I've seen that format before
