In preparation for the upcoming [Android lockdown](https://keepandroidopen.org/) I've started vibe-coding some PWAs for apps that I like so I can have a webby version of them with no ads and no Google/iOS lock-in. I like this, it feels like a good direction.

Yep, dumber than Deepseek4 at 10x the price. Cool tech demo though.

This. Haven't seen this in the news in years. A few years ago (2022?), they got some $x00 million in investment money. They already had IPFS/IPNS at that point so it was some deep push into Filecoin. But it felt odd at the time. Bitcoin was starting to jump the shark at that point and none of the smarter cryptos had truly found a market fit either.

Unfortunately, camera white balance seems to diminish the effect compared to actually being there. But it's something. Now imagine that the weather got 10 deg (F) colder, the birds are chirping because they think it's bedtime and your circadian rhythm is nagging you in the back of your head: "this ain't right"

Django makes simple things easy and complex things hard. Django breaks the zen of Python with much "magic". I like DjangoORM but prefer FastAPI for the webby bits.

Discontinuing a product breaks the cost-comparision chain. It makes it easier to increase prices or reduce quality without direct backlash. Releasing new products also makes for marketing announcements that work like advertisement (or is advertisement directly).

Checks out. More legislation boosts your business.

Go type this into perplexity: "Are there any health studies about what exposure to pornography does to childhood development?"

Here's another good one: "Are there any health studies about what exposure to violence or horror does to childhood development?"

There is a reason that rating systems exist and that we shelter children from these things.

The pre-rebuttal that you posted "this was common in my childhood" is no indicator that this was a healthy behavior for you or the masses.

So many parental opinions on here. Not every kid is the same. Trying to apply blanket parental strategies speaks of ignorance. I have neurodivergent kids and this could be great for them.

I bought some ebooks from other vendors to avoid lock-in and side-loaded them on my kindle. Last year, if Amazon sold one of these titles it would dissappear if I turned on wifi. I now have a kobo.

True. It depends on the feature you're demoing...but determinism is a VERY DESIRABLE feature for giving demos.
