I recently noticed people think "wiki" is a set of deeply interlinked documents. But to me it means ability to edit without logging in.

Reading your comment made me realize that I love that the position of the FSF is held by someone, in the interest of stretching the Overton Window to that side.

If you have openrouter do this little experiment: Go to https://openrouter.ai/chat . Select a few models, but customize them to have an empty system prompt. Then ask: "你是什么模型?" ("W…

I'm not sure if it needs to be said, but one thing that is possible only if you keep your old chats is the analysis TFA made.
