I've had good success in using this: https://github.com/sqliteai/sqlite-vector if you want something a bit more "off the shelf" if you are using SQLite.

We bought Tailwind UI and it was very good and I learned a lot of nice tricks from it.
Real shame, and I fear it is just the start of the impacts of AI on our industry.

Quite disappointing their speech to text models are not open source. Whisper was really good and it was great it was open to play around with. I guess this continues OpenAI's approach of not really being open!

One thing to checkout is perhaps some plugin/module you have might be adding this permission without you knowing about it.
Trying using the 'Merged Manifest' in Android Studio (https://developer.android.com/build/manage-manifests#inspect...) to see if you can see coming from anywhere.

I am glad people are talking about this. I have been feeling like this for the past couple of weeks. It's a difficult thing as I really enjoy coding but it feels like that part of the job will be changing in the future.
I think it's all about being adaptable, being here on HN and thinking about these things will put you ahead of others who simply don't see the change coming. Unfortunately we can't put the AI genie back in the bottle and we just have to be ready to adapt.

I have never applied at Google so I don't know what they are looking for exactly, however I read "Linux Kernel Development" by Robert Love a few years ago and I really enjoyed it. It might be the best technical book I have ever read now that I think about it.

I would encourage people to read the NCSC blog post on this as it goes into technical detail on why the decision was made.
