> People have started to view a high-trust society like a rainforest: a natural resource that has lots of life-sustaining positive externalities, but you can just burn it down to make a quick buck instead.

I've never read this analogy before but it really works for me. Thanks!

I am not anti-AI, but if I am going to use AI I far prefer to have control over how I engage with it. Having a piece of hardware to focused on Google's own AI flavor being built in is a big negative to me. Not that I would totally write off this new Googlebook (despite disliking the name), but I can't really see a situation where I'd ever prefer this over an Apple Neo for example.

I appreciate the idea, but as others have mentioned it seems like for something like this to be useful it really needs to be well thought out and tolerant to extreme spikes in traffic.

I might be wrong here but it looked like the responses from the server are chunked, which I _think_ precludes the use of a highly optimized cache response e.g. from a CDN. Assuming that's true (very open to correction of course!) I wonder why this would be.

There are a lot of similarities. You must either have a great memory for fonts, or eat a lot of butter alternative spread, either way good eye!

I really don't know why I struggle so much with this stuff. I believe these models / agents / whatever write code that is often at least as good as the code I write, and they are super helpful tools, but it just feels like it takes away so much of the joy that is programming to me. I'm not saying it's "right" of me to feel this way, but for me the struggle, and the figuring things out by testing, identifying patterns, or looking deeper into a library's implementation (etc) is part of the challenge that makes programming and software construction fun.

I came here to ask if there is some way of fixing this. I'm guessing not.

Youtube lately seems particularly bad in terms of showing lots of "shorts" all over when I have zero interest in watching them, but also suggested videos seem somehow aggressively chosen. I'm not sure how to describe that, but that's what it feels like to me.

I don't see how this is an issue. To me, this does seem at least confusing, but possibly dangerous.

If you have internal auth testing domains at the same place as user generated content, what's to stop somebody thinking a user-generated page isn't a legit page when it asked you to login or something?

To me this seems like a reasonable flag.

I relate to this. Also, I am not the best person in the world, but recently this hit the point where I decided because of these very same thoughts + nudging from my much better partner to donate to NPR, to cancel Netflix and move that money to NPR. Now no more Netflix, which is sort of a relief in ways, and I have to be more intentional about what I download / consume.

Same. Replacing all of my light switches with an app I have to use anytime I want to turn the lights on or off is indeed a huge step backwards IMHO.

Replacing all of the light switches with smart switches and monition sensors and things like this, plus automated schedules, to the point that you never need to switch any switches at all or think about lights, that is nice IMHO.

I agree on all points.

The project was well made, but my read on it was that they wanted to be shown something interesting. Even if it wasn't as well made of polished, I got the impression they would have preferred something "fun" or imaginative.

Thanks for the link, but yeah as the other poster mentioned, this is for a dev board. I'd be interested in buying the module (which is somewhere between the bare IC and the dev board). Here is an example from their store of an ESP32-S3 module: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006334720108.html?pdp_np...

Thanks for taking the time to explain!

So your original comment / request was regarding USB specifically then?

I ask because I'd have guessed (possibly incorrectly!) that implement HID via GATT (BLE) you'd be able to support anything the BLE hardware revision could implement?

Perhaps the disconnect for me is that it's unclear when there is some special hardware that exists within the ESP32 itself (I think I2C, I2S, etc would be examples of this) vs something you are just implementing by manipulating the IO pins. Perhaps HID is one of those things?

Any guesses as to when a hobbyist might be able to buy the module without the dev board? Their aliexpress store didn't have them as far as I can tell, I assume they are prioritizing dev boards for the moment unless you're a big enough company to actually talk directly with Espressif.

Any chance you could explain this to somebody who is just learning about HID and has run this example: https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tree/master/examples/pe... ? "non-boot protocol" I'm guessing is the key here? I don't have a super deep understanding of HID or what the "boot-protocol" refers to.

A bit similar for me, I grew up in the Midwest and spent a lot of time wandering around CompUSA and Circuit City / Best Buy when I was a kid. When I was old enough and had some reason to go out West, Fry's was one of the top things on my list of things to go see, it felt like a pilgrimage of sorts.

I completely agree. I find magic links much more of a hassle than a password.

I am by no means an expert, but I wrote up a bunch of words on how I did this personally for a family Xmas present here. The tl;dr; is a custom PCB in my case: https://kevinmitchell.io/blog/mitchine-esp8266-wooden-thinki...
