One of my favorite website ever. Delight as always.

> So the question isn’t “bots vs no bots” - it’s what kinds of automated access should exist, and under what norms.

I think it's pretty simple: if a website clearly isn't welcoming automated access, like when they set up UA filters and such, it should not be automatically. Stealth browsers that bypasses those filters are abusing the site.

One from my essential FOSS apps list. Especially helpful with compression/conversion.

In the mean time, HTMX is pretty much that with much more. Definitely recommend.

No traditional media talk about this as much as it should be. No one seems to care but the always-angry, chronically online. I had no high hopes for free internet in this country but it's getting worse than I've ever imagined.

1. There is a link to a demo website, which is in fact in similar style.

2. I don't think the website is _nearly unreadable_.

3. Pretty rude remark.

I had no problem with it not supporting Linux, like I said, it was expected and if anything, I'm to blame.

After all, I'm still using it. But I'd have ditched the laptop if it weren't for the linux kernel. Can't thank them enough.

I will never buy a Surface device ever again. I've been using an SL4 for the last four years with Linux on it, thanks to the surface-linux kernel.

It's awful. It feels like it's actively refusing to work properly with Linux.

Fair - it's not for Linux, and clearly that is expected with a Microsoft device.

I've recently had to call their support for missing rubber feet. I figured I could get the replacement mailed(that was how it went when it first happened about two years ago). An AI answered, did not understand what I was saying at all, hung up the call. I called again; it told me to check the website and hung up, not even giving me a chance to say anything.

Okay. Guess I'll never buy anything from you ever. Ordered them off of Aliexpress and moved on.

I don't do this myself, but I can also see how many would do this.

How much did it cost?

This is true even with the SOTA models. Making LLMs ask questions and giving answers is always a good idea. Almost every prompt I write ends with something like this: Unless undoubtedly clear, every decision and action must come from mutual agreement.

> Zero is aiming for a language an agent can learn while working: regular syntax, few special cases, and compiler feedback that points toward the next edit.

Why? Why should an agent learn while working when there are already-familiar languages with most of the logics embedded in the model and with much better ecosystem?

I wonder much time did the author actually spent vibe coding this. I bet 90% of the time were spent on subscription payment processing.

It's also 28 times more expensive than V4 pro and 111 times than V4 Flash.

This is something that non-techsavvy users would go nuts over how it seemlessly and easily works.

> A virtual display can now be made flex using --flex-display (or -x), meaning it can be resized dynamically along with the client window.

Amazing.

Genuinely curious what makes you say that. Haven't used Chrome for a really long time and not once I've missed it.

This is an extreme level of pedantry(forgive me), but there is a subtle difference between "DC" and "할인" (and also "세일").

"할인" refers to a wide variety of discounts: it may have a few conditions (minimum quantity, membership, etc.), be available only for a certain period of time, or be a fixed amount or percentage.

"세일" is pretty much the same, although it puts a tiny bit more focus on being a limited-time offer and being percentage-based.

"DC" almost always refers only to a simple, percentage-based discount or rounding down the price. It also sounds much more spontaneous and less formal.
