Effective Altruism I think

I mean it is pretty clear if you look at the data around purchasing power of the median earner (~$44K/yr in US) the US is significantly higher than most EU countries.

You don't and that's the problem :)

It used the browser agent to grab user cookies after signing in, then made API calls iirc.

Using just a browser is way too token intensive and slow. It would look for 401 errors then run the browser automation to login with the credentials and grab the token.

I have worked with LLMs for a couple years at a very non-technical level and it was not that difficult to give it proper prompting and reference material.

If you are reading LLM content just about everywhere and have no idea. Obviously there are easy to spot things, but the stuff you don't spot is the stuff you don't spot

It has, and the well prompted agents still give that. It's very weird.

I will say that I believe you probably have absolutely no idea because it's not "slop". It looks like every other reddit comment you see.

My experiment was focused on niche subreddits as well due to the nature of the product I was trying to market.

I have largely written Reddit off and no longer visit it after an experiment I did where I had an agent karma farm for me and do some covert advertising. As I went through the posts it wrote I realized that as a reader I would have NO idea that these were just written by a computer. Many many people (or other bots) had full on conversations with it and it scared me a bit.

I am not quite there with Hacker News but I do know for a fact that many "users" here are LLMs.

Online communities are definitely dying. I guess I hope that maybe IRL communities have a resurgence in this wake.

Kinda rich coming from someone who doesn't even have a valid SSL cert on the website in their profile bio...

I "subconsciously" moved to codex back in mid Feb from CC and it's been so freaking awesome. I don't think it's as good at UI, but man is it thorough and able to gather the right context to find solutions.

I use "subconsciously" in quotes because I don't remember exactly why I did it, but it aligns with the degradation of their service so it feels like that probably has something to do with it even though I didn't realize it at the time.

There are many different models, but all should come up with similar RTSPS stream from Protect. Let me know when you cut a new release and i'll try it!

Yes you can get an RTSPS stream, but looks like Aegis is doing some validation that won't accept them. They look like - rtsps://192.168.1.1:7441/uOndh6hJd3Bti4kd?enableSrtp

Wow this looks awesome! Will it work with Unifi Protect? I'm not seeing anything in the docs

Of course there were. Don't be pedantic. Anybody could write a program and put it on the internet. But to get a reasonably polished version with decent features and an enjoyable enough UX for someone to sign up and even pay money more, it generally took people who kind of knew what they were doing.

Of course shortcuts were taken. They always were and always will be. But don't try to compare shipping software today to even just 3 years ago.

The hardest part about this stuff is that as a user, you don't necessarily know if an app is vibe-coded or not. Previously, you were able to have _some_ reasonable expectation of security in that trained engineers were the ones building these things out, but that's no longer the case.

There's a lot of cool stuff being built, but also as a user, it's a scary time to be trying new things.

I agree with this for the most part, though there are times and with specific cars that you can have a blast. I can have a lot of fun in an old M Coupe, or Miata.

I used to have a GT3...it was a dream car of mine and I finally got it. The sad reality was that in order to have fun with it on public roads I was either going to kill myself/someone else, or go to jail. The only way to really experience that car in a responsible way was to go to the track. Which I just flat out didn't have the time to do with young kids.

Things were very different 20-30 years ago. Roads were less crowded and people were much more respectful on the road. Now, especially where I live, it's a free for all Mad Max cosplay.

Where are you finding where all the sensors locations are?

This is an interesting point...many of the ghost kitchens technically allow pickup.

Lol this is my exact thought as well. Just downloaded it now and taking it for a spin...pretty good so far!
