Oh ok

I didn’t say bitcoin and I called out not really private in my comment.

The text at the bottom says “kagi doesn’t collect any identifying data, but does require an account, so it is considered less private than the alternatives”.

Very strange to put Kagi as “less private” when it’s the only non-self-hosted option that allows for completely private searches with their Privacy Pass tokens. You can access them with Tor, pay with crypto (not really that private though), and sign up with a fake email. https://kagi.com/privacy#anonymity

Yeah it’s insane watching something at someone else’s house and your immersion in a show or movie or YouTube video is just completely destroyed by an ad.

I think it would be Brzzzzzzz^zzzzzzzzzz

Should transform to https://🌽.ws/ when you click it. The xn— is the punycode prefix.

Here’s how Punycode works:

Unicode characters are first converted into a series of code points, which are represented as a series of numbers. The code points are then converted into a series of ASCII characters, using a specific algorithm. The ASCII characters are then prepended with “xn–”, which is a special prefix that indicates that the following characters are encoded in Punycode.

For example, the Unicode character 快 (which means fast in Chinese) is represented as the code point “U+5FEB”. This code point is then converted into the ASCII characters “2s5v”, which is prepended with the “xn–” prefix to give us “xn–2s5v”. This can then be used as part of a domain name.

When the domain name is displayed to a user, the Punycode is converted back into Unicode characters, so that the user sees the original characters rather than the encoded version. This allows users to use and read domain names in their native scripts, even if their computer or device doesn’t support those scripts.

Ff shows punycode. The article is quite old.

Video uploading sites are supposed to be free. Social media is meant for the masses.

What an idiotic statement.

I’d love to hear more about your point 3. How are you ingesting events and then responding back without emitting your own events?

I watched that the other day. Absolutely fascinating work by some incredibly smart people to subvert the widget restrictions.

I don’t know a single millennial that uses TikTok. This is such a weird generalization.

I think one sentence makes it hit less hard. It’s more surprising with two sentences, and the “sly eyes” and the paragraph break help with it.

I’ve almost completely stopped using them, unless I’m stuck at a dead end. In the end all they have done is slow me down and make me unable to think properly anymore. They usually write way too much code, especially with tab complete stuff, resulting in me needing to delete code after hitting tab (what’s the point even, intellisense has always been really good and now it’s somehow worse). They’re usually wrong unless prompted multiple times. People say you can use them to generate boilerplate, but just use a language with less or no boilerplate like Kotlin. There’s usually very subtle bugs they introduce or they’re solving a problem that is simply documented on stack overflow, while I wouldn’t be using an LLM if I could just kagi it, so they solve the wrong thing.

One thing it’s decent for, if you don’t care about code quality, is converting code to a language you do not know. You’re not going to end up with good idiomatic code at the end, but it will probably function.

None of this is to say that the LLMs aren’t amazing, but if you start to depend on them you very very quickly realize that your ability to solve more complex problems will atrophy. And then when you get to a difficult problem you now waste much more time trying to solve a problem that might have been simpler for past you.

is it like markdown for powerpoints? or LaTeX for powerpoints? seems neat, though I don’t create many presentations so I probably wouldn’t use it.

Zipper.

Only once in my whole career have I ever needed to worry about the performance of a loop in big o terms. I think it was about 7 years ago.

You used to be able to hold alt and right click and choose open.

That isn’t a Mac error message. It’s Roblox giving you that error.

Toblerone is American???
