I got a bit carried away trying to make a WiFi captive portal. A lot of the tutorials online are incomplete or underspecified, so I wanted to make sure this gets indexed.

Lmao really fun. I guess you're using a network request, but I wonder if you can access the models that the photos app seems to use locally.

Yes, sort of - that and scaling reasons. It's actually in that same repo now but in a different service. I'd like to remove it from the Abbey repo entirely eventually.

Hi, it is unfortunately not public and cannot be made so to my understanding. It was frustrating to talk about in job interviews for that reason and therefore was not on the LinkedIn.

Hi thanks! The domain actually used to be a redirect link to U.S. Automotive Industries (a trade publication). I reached out to them and got a deal, so it was a lot for me but not, like, we.ai expensive lol.

The name was always a corporate placeholder and I liked the idea of US Steel or General Electric type names. Some startups have done similar things, and many people actually like the name a ton. But I know it's controversial and so any products I made have their own names and branding that's pretty separate (see: Abbey).

Over the past few months I've gone the gov contracting route and the name actually made some sense, so I've used it raw. Still, the plan is to get a DBA in the near future and switch it up. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks, that's a great idea! I was originally going to go the vision model route because I'd also like people to be able to send instructions to sign in with some credentials (like when visiting the nytimes or something).

Thanks for the catch on my LinkedIn, I really should have that there now. It was originally something I kept private.

I'll try to improve the vibes :(

I've been working at this startup for almost two years now and that page and branding etc has been changing a lot as you can imagine ...

Yeah the EU cookie banners are annoying, I'm hoping to do some automation to click out of them before taking the screenshots
