There's no license specified for what it's worth.

JSON is basically a subset of JavaScript. Parsing XML sucks, everyone rolled their own RSS and it was basically a nightmare having to deal with invalid XML. JSON has always been really strict and simple. If JavaScript in a browser couldn't parse it it just didn't work. libxml was also a nightmare, XSLT pages looked terrible and honestly there where just a lot of bad XML ideas out there despite gems like SVG. SOAP was horrible, and still is for people having to interface with a SOAP API like Netsuite.

But what was really the end of XML was the end of XHMTL and the HTML5 working group that said they weren't going to do XML HTML and it was funded by Google's large sums of money and involved talented people work at a hot new browser called Firefox and the web dev community went their way and everyone followed.

Isn't Zeplin a competitor?

I'm sure that this even happened at all isn't good for anyone. I can't for the life of me understand how the people who made this decision did it in the complete absence of talking to investors, stakeholders and even the OpenAI employees in leadership positions. And then to provide no explanation. Even the community and people who were using their APIs deserved one. They behaved so irresponsibly.

I think Altman must have worked in the past with lots of ycombinator founders to resolve disputes. Then to end up in his own, completely blind-sided and cut off. Nobody is immune to bad founder relationships.

Can LEDs be used to create the same brightness without the heat?

> fully-asm coded polyfill (flat shaded) and it uses NO variables, only registers

As someone who writes small hobby OpenGL 4 games with zig for fun and because I'm not using a game engine I think I'm doing low level stuff, but this really appropriately puts what I'm doing into perspective. This quote is pretty awesome. I love how we got to where we are these days. Early game developers were true pioneers and we owe you so much!

The service quality sucks. You're getting what you pay for. We switched to Azure Open AI APIs because of all the service quality issues.

This is a myopic take, the attacker could not spend the bitcoins because of the public ledger and the value of bitcoin would drop to nothing once it is realized that wallets are not secure. They'd burn bitcoin for no gain, for a loss even, because they would reveal their capabilities and maybe even who they are.

I find it amazing that I can write an original story or a poem, give it to chat-gpt and talk about what it might mean, what the character's motivations might be, how they might be viewed as others, and have meaningful conversations and explorations. Idk man. I don't know how it works, but it's still amazing to me even now.

This third party browser extension looks like it hides UI contents whereas with Kagi your preferences are used in what is actually returned from the search engine and in what order. I don't think these things are all that similar.

I used to have a lot of respect for the quiet and reserved Elon who put rockets into space and had an interesting car company. Now's he's spreading misinformation about mass shootings where children died and just being unbelievably awful and toxic. Turns out he's an absolutely horrible person all the way down. He should have just stayed quiet and built his companies.

It's vastly different, you're being disingenuous or just don't know anything about Twitter.

There's a bunch of new features that nobody uses, like communities. Blue checkmark comments for days before you see good comments on popular tweets. The for you feed is full of people I don't want to see, and that was my favorite feed before. Ratelimits, and just overall skyrocketing negativity across the board. The only good thing is spaces. A lot of good people stopped tweeting. It's vastly different.
