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 with the ads? For things like LLM the inference cost is hi

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 that seems willing to work with me to get things right.

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 for him so ask me in 3 days when I've ho

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 solve their problems then their problems would be solved.&

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 be "normal", you align better with your

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 kinds of UI are most convenient for each type

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. buuut... I will also mention that these agent files are

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 as part of the flagging system. It would work like this: Wh

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. I agree with you... but the reality is that there

I assume you used these against a relational database? Did you commit those ids with the prefix still attached? or did you `.split()[1]` or something? I think it's a pretty good idea. I'm just wondering how this translated to othe

I've been looking for a tool like this that can publish. I was thinking of some way to create a help doc system for end users, but interleaved with technical information and discussion for devs. IE to make the help documentation a sing

Keep chrome installed and fall back iff forced to. That way the majority of usage statistics show up as other browsers so when developers are making guesses at which browser to support, those statistics will push them away from chrome. Addi

So, hypothetically here, say Apple was still extracting extortionate rents: Why wouldn't they just choose to make more money with ads?

This is one of those reasons why you really really need to get other people on board with your workflows. If you're the only one who works like that and someone does something insane, but it technically works, but it blows your workf

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 different "take".

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 tainting or outright destroying huge swaths of the internet, is

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, then the law is broken. I can't imagine anything cl

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. Only us. Only ever us.

It's funny because in a group crowded channel there is feedback so long as you are part of the channel. But I think even in those circumstances, the feedback you get from the noise of everybody else, you don't interpret that as th

Honestly the idea of a valuable communication channel getting abused for selfish purposes feels like it needs its own law. I'd happily call it csharps law. Maybe it's already got a name. We have the idea of spam, but it's vau

I do find chatgpt is helpful in laying out the formulas you should you in the context that they should be used in. Something I personally know I have no business doing. ... At the same time, I also am aware of how hilariously dumb chat GPT

I appreciate your post here and I'm glad you shared, because it's an example of a distributed harm. One of millions to shake out of this incident, that doesn't have a dollar figure, so it doesn't really "count"

Blaming an entire countries population specifically, that elects representatives on a first past the post system, strikes me as a bit divorced from reality. Canadians do not live in a direct democracy, they don't explicitly vote on eve
