It uses the microdata and json-ld documents embedded in the page to find the content you actually want to see. No need for AI/LLM extraction.
You know how sometimes the gift you really want is cash or a gift card, but people often prefer to give you physical gifts that you can open and admire? Imagine a line of faux jewelry that is marked up to real-jewelry prices and that, unbeknownst to the gift giver, comes with a hidden gift card code. So somebody asks you what you'd like for your birthday and you say, "Oh, I'd really like some Lagniappe brand jewelry,…
These kind of people who think receiving gifts is some kind of entitlement are the same kind of people who start bringing up their diets when you invite them for dinner. Cold, calculating, reptilian. No human emotion or joy of life.
There's an API coming that will allow those customised docs to be generated at scale.
I’ve been working on a synthetic DNA assembly company. Basically, I figured out how to assemble DNA for people at a fraction of what it normally costs, so they give me a sequence, and then I make it in real life for them, then ship it to them. Most of my customers have been AI protein designers, ironically. Turns out SOMEBODY has to wrangle atoms in the real biological world and that’s me! After almost a year of work…
Now this is interesting. I've read about using synthetic DNA for data storage, but other uses surely abound. I don't suppose you'll need documentation help at some point in the near future...?

This is so incredibly narcissistic and mercantile. Being a grown up means you understand that you're not owed any gifts and that when somebody makes you a gift it is mainly for their pleasure and something to be grateful for, that they thought of you.

This is such a first world problem. It's normalized in many 3rd world countries to give and receive cash (red envelopes). Directly not giving money and resorting to gift cards (and roundabout methods like these) just, doesn't make sense to my third world brain is all I'm saying.
Many, meaning, not all. It's obviously a cultural thing. That red envelope idea is ancient. China and Vietnam that do the red envelope bit would be "second world" countries, incidentally, as they were part of the communist block under that old "three worlds" labeling.
Although China played both sides & its support is one of the larger factors for why the US won the cold war.
My own photogrammetry pipeline because I'm fascinated by the tech (automatically create 3d models from photos). There are also a huge number of commercial applications but I haven't addressed one well enough yet. https://beholder.vision So far I've built a first pass of the pipeline using C++/CUDA and used it to power a SaaS and desktop photogrammetry app (free for personal non-commercial use). Got some useful feedba…
I would love if someone would make a photometry app that ingests video (such as iPhone video of my house or drone footage of my property) and outputs a 3D gaussian splatting model. I want it just for fun, but I’m sure it to real estate agents!
I give you a non-intrusive bait (ssh private key, crypto wallet private key), you store it anywhere you want to monitor.

I'm making a small compost freezer. This way, while your compost is in your kitchen and before you put it in the municipal compost bin outside, it doesn't smell, isn't wet, doesn't attract flies, and the bag doesn't rip. It has the form factor of a small trash can and uses a TEC for cooling.
