This reminds me of “en” vs “ett” in Swedish. No rules - just gotta know

I think there’s enough real conscious lifeforms in the world having a bad time that we should be focusing on them first.

> The scary part to me is that it actually works. Not practically, but that upper management and whatnot actually buy it.

That “below average” intelligence pool are well represented in upper management. FOMO is a powerful thing, smart people are often tricked by dumb ideas because they don’t want to miss out on something or be perceived to not understand the value of a bad idea

Counterpoint - the two major Australian supermarkets both sell in-store “finished” cookies that are like crack. They’re delicious. They come in a pack of 5 for $3.50 but 5 is way too much. I’d gladly pay $1 each for them as a snack while I’m shopping

There are occasions where shrinkflation does make sense. In the Mars case, I’d say there is consumer demand on the health side as well. Yes, a Mars bar is never “healthy” but 40g is less worse than 60g

Automatic filtering on modern iOS has been a game changer here. Assume Android has something similar, but I can't speak highly enough of that one feature

An MMO of Full Throttle would be amazing!

10 years ago I would have agreed with you but these days.. Outlook has been crapped on so much that Google Workspaces are competitive imo

Meh, I enjoyed reading it. I could be LLM-assisted but also I have a bunch of younger devs on my team who do actually write like this

You’re welcome to not like the article, and it can even be LLM-assisted, but that doesn’t mean it’s slop

Naive question, but isn’t every output token generated in roughly the same, non-deterministic, way? Even if it uses its actual history as context, couldn’t the output still be incorrect?

Not trolling, asking as a regular user

Seems to be looking for a new maintainer. If anyone has the bandwidth, it’s a great piece of software

Giving the benefit of the doubt, could it be being used as a translation tool?

> Cloudflare isn't one of the good guys here

Came here to say the same thing, post was interesting until I got to that point.

> nuisance captchas

Try using the internet outside of the western world and major hubs. Cloudflare make it so painful with captchas and browser integrity checks

This is a great project! I like and use Wayland but the portal protocols and extension mechanism does leave a lot to be desired. Wayland is still quite a way behind Windows and macOS in terms of what productivity users need

An X11 rewrite with some security baked in is an awesome approach. Will be watching!
