    this is a discussion we often have where I work, where we're debating removing a feature due to difficulties maintaining it and few people needing it. I usually fight to keep it, w…

    I think it' very debatable whether or not this should be a web page's behaviour.

    you realize reading books isn't a zero-sum game right? I can still read more books, it didn't end with Clean Code

    Started out with "It's not X, it's also Y", followed by an em-dash. I didn't read any further than that.

    if they had any intention of doing things "the right way", they would have gone to every publisher individually and asked for a proper license.

    yeah I was gonna say, it's very difficult to read on an eink display. And while we're at it, I believe my phone is set to reduced animations, which I believe is a preference that's…

    They'll simply copy Google's playbook. First, clearly highlighted as advertisement results, usually the first three, so just with muscle memory you'll scroll down right away. Then …

    didn't read the article, but just the title felt fishy because of course an inference provider wouldn't mind claiming to provide access to a mythos-class model. So far, GLM 5.2 is …

    Crazy how mighty GLM-5.2 is at less than a third the parameter count. Z.ai really cooked with that one.

    And if you had to email someone in Italian, would you really do it with poor grammar? Or would you write it in English and translate it, or use a tool to ensure it's correct? I'm n…

    I have OpenWebui hosted on my homelab, but you can also just have it live on your machine in a docker container. I honestly just embrace the iffy feeling. Openrouter has very good …

    Last month, I cancelled my Claude Pro subscription and instead used those 20$ to purchase Openrouter Credits. Most of my knowledge-seeking questions can be answered by Gemma4, for …

    I feel it's a little more extreme for swiss companies though, especially outside the country. My aunt who works in Rome in the tourism industry told us of a local company that had …

    It'd honestly be pretty alarming. They just took the entirety of the internet to become rich, and now that they have something to take, they intentionally worsen the whole thing (b…
