I'm using Kagi every day, and unfortunately, it is not true anymore. I think what happens is that the blanket banning of IP ranges because of LLMs, and flat out incompetence and laziness, affects them heavily. I get results, or just a

The worst urinal which I used was in Brussels about 15 years ago, and with that "splash-back reducing" mat. And it covered every part of the inner wall of the urinal. The mat caused the exact opposite of what it was supposed to do

That 40 percent is definitely not true in the general audience. Also they will load ads, just not all of them. Surveys ask that. Especially on mobile, and apps. Also, when we measured on our car rental site, with near perfect precision (it&

Yes, but first of all, people make those decisions. And second, unlike those people, you don't need to have dissonant answers, and don't need to lie to yourself. And you can still live quite comfortably.

Google should have been split up into shreds like 2 decades ago. Search wants to have income from ads? Good sell it to anybody who pays the most, just like every single newspaper does. Gmail wants to sell our data, or ad space? Good sell th

But before ChatGPT,, models had already done that, like all the time, and nobody questioned that these types of models (LLMs) wouldn't be next token predictors, since this is just an inference input data topic. This is questioned only

Compared to 2016, it can do a lot of things, but it still fails for example with recommending a setup for my Raspberry Pi to have a 4G connection with some parameters (I want to use as a gateway between VoLTE calls and SMS, and my SIP serve

My experience with such problems, is that they stay for this long because nobody cares, not because it's impossible, or even technically too difficult. So hopefully, LLM will improve things, but that quote is a lie.

As several others have already said here, GrapheneOS is not necessarily rooted. So that's a lie. Also, I've seen such audits internally, and they don't care about security at all. They care about the theatrics of security waa

Malwares can possibly do that even on non rooted phones if a privilege escalation attack is possible. And just yesterday, there was an article here about exactly one of those. Also I highly doubt that there is any real statistics anywhere a

This is even funnier than how some people defended Apple, that they allow changing OSs on Apple silicon MacBooks.

So because of the hardship of renaming a file, creating a symlink, or importing another file, you rename a file. If somebody switches because of this, then they lie.

Here is a constructive one then: delete it. It’s better for everyone. If I want to read AI slop about your open source code, I can ask LLMs directly. It’s cheaper for you, and everybody.

You are right, I remembered wrong. Netflix degraded the quality for me for years, according to them because of lack of DRM. It was because of lack of hardware DRM.

It’s still hollow and cheap. I closed those sites immediately even before LLMs. You need to pay me to waste my time, not the other way around. Even if that’s using your then not-so-free app.

Technically speaking, it’s possible to have the same kind of requests for legit content and ads. It’s also possible to randomize the response type (ad or content). In that case the only way to solve this before sending a request is to break

There is a difference between bugs/failures, and false advertisement. The solution used here has well known shortcomings.

Yes, I read it. That means that it doesn’t work in those cases. Btw, as a developer it’s very easy to have something like that. It’s not as trivial as it seems at all. I encountered with similar problems all the time, with similar solutions

The long tail dream didn’t really happen in any single market which was democratized the same way in the past. Why do you expect something else now, especially on an already oversaturated market?
