Do you want superpowers to be able to wage wars, foreign or domestically, with hordes of non-human combatants that can't refuse orders or defect on moral grounds?

It doesn't. Only 5 of those characters are in the alphabet.

If you think the average Google employee has as much access to PII or sensitive information as a cop, you're deeply mistaken.

Why are types anti-lisp?

Tell that to the milllions of people in states like this that have spent most/all their life having their rights infringed upon.

It is definitely worse. At leas a binary is constant, on your system, can be analyzed. Curl|sh can give you different responses than just curling. Far far worse

Your comment assumes the plugin is not working as they want it to. The way it is designed gets them the maximum amount of data. It does a great job if that is their goal.

This person's distinction between "library" and "framework" is frankly insane.

React, which just is functions to make DOM trees and render them is a framework? There is a reason there are hundreds of actual frameworks that exist to make structure about using these functions.

At this point, he should stop using any high level language! Java/python are just a big frameworks calling his bytecode, what magical frameworks!

It now seems to serve the purpose of funneling users into edge, AI products, or serving ads.

Are you anti handheld radio?

Yes, that's the point of freedom. People can carry devices that do things. If they break the law, that's another question, but everyone should be allowed to have computers that communicate that they can control

It very feasibly could. If I made an LLM agent that clicks on a returned element, and then the element was this trap doored link, that would happen

But what action are you triggering that automatically follows invisible links? Especially those not meant to be followed with text saying not to follow them.

This is not banning you for following <h1><a>Today's Weather</a></h1>

If you are a robot that's so poorly coded that it is following links it clearly shouldn't that's are explicitly numerated as not to be followed, that's a problem. From an operator's perspective, how is this different than a case you described.

If a googler kicked off the googlebot manually from a session every morning, should they not respect robots.txt either?

Confused as to what you're asking for here. You want a robot acting out of spec, to not be treated as a robot acting out of spec, because you told it to?

How does this make you any different than the bad faith LLM actors they are trying to block?

Search any Go codebase for err != nil, for starters.

So the hecklers selling overpriced trinkets at every major tourist attraction in Europe or the US aren't scams? I disagree.
