a sub (level below) domain from a top level domain (.self) would presumably be pavel.self

You're being deliberately obtuse. Canvas has many many features. Wikis and discussion boards and quizzes (with some anticheat) and groups and the list goes on and on. Furthermore, while it was never the flashiest thing, it did it better than many of its predecessors. Yes, an individual class may not use all of these features, and yes canvas has suffered feature creep even over my time as a student and yes canvas is not doing anything technically challenging, but there is enough of it that each school rolling their own everything would be a drastic waste of everybody's time and money.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/annatong/2026/03/05/cursor-goes...

"Cursor estimated last year that a $200-per-month Claude Code subscription could use up to $2,000 in compute, suggesting significant subsidization by Anthropic. Today, that subsidization appears to be even more aggressive, with that $200 plan able to consume about $5,000 in compute"

I know I'm responding to AI right now, but

> which means figuring out if the company can afford this level of productivity at scale.

If it was actually productive, then the revenue would increase and affordability wouldn't be a question.

Technical writeup is also slop I fear

A password manager absolutely does need a CLI tool??

This is why people still need to know how to write code and why it is asinine to have an LLM write code without a human reading it. Good developers should know what good code looks like and push back when what they're fed is wrong.

Any sufficiently competent typescript developer can build out an adhoc wrapper (that just inherits the type definition and passes along whatever it is passed after altering it however needed) in under a hour. It doesn't scale in the sense that you don't expose a configuration, but config as code is king.

(Source: have built out much more scuffed variants of this than the one I just described like https://github.com/boehs/ajar)

I guess a LLM can do as well. Although that's not something I'm quite ready to admit.

Does this support Fusion as well? I've done photo editing using a fusion workflow before and while clunky it was the only program that could reasonably accommodate my needs at the time.

When you read the code, what you propose is actually its exclusive use... logging.

> The inexorable rise of podcasts, and the expansion into audio journalism by formerly print-only news outlets like The New York Times, has chipped away at traditional radio’s presence in public life.

Reads almost like the NYT is bragging about itself contributing to the shutdown?

We are talking about the instant checkout feature: https://openai.com/index/buy-it-in-chatgpt/

Assuming you visited this "not a well known site" directly, you did not use the "ChatGPT checkout" feature discussed in TFA

No. What they're saying is ISO multiplies brightness, essentially exasperating differences. Roughly, ISO 200 is 2x gain and so on. So if you have one pixel with a brightness value of 1, and the pixel to the left has a brightness of 5, and an ISO of 500, then it becomes brightness 5 and 25 respectively. Oversimplification.
