  • Firefox Will Ship with an "AI Kill Switch" to Completely Disable all AI Features - 9to5Linux

    Jump

  • Oh, it “wasn’t made clear” SUUURE. Addressing a blowback could be way better if you admitted a mistake instead of gaslighting your users. Not the way to earn back lost trust.

  • An Apple fan says they lost '20 years of digital life' after using an Apple gift card

    Jump

  • There is no mention of that being the case (or otherwise). But the fact that the author is clearly explaining they don’t have data loss, they have more or less bricked devices makes it seem like this is a bad faith argument.

  • I love all kinds of soup and it’s the one type of meal where I can truly go insane with the amount of hot sauce I put in it. An amount that would probably make these soup-hating boys cry.

  • Stack Overflow seeks rebrand as traffic continues to plummet – which is bad news for developers

    Jump

  • I’m sure they have all the heuristics in Cloudflare cranked up due to all programming model training aggressively digesting their content. Can’t blame them, honestly.

  • OpenAI wants to buy Chrome and make it an “AI-first” experience

    Jump

  • There is no way Google would sell Chrome. But you can bet at least a thousand engineers are working on bolting Gemini onto it right now.

  • Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()

    Jump

  • I think pythonic is more important than performance and I would still choose that version over a try-catch block, were it slower. Being pythonic means it represents a commonly understood pattern in Python code, therefore it is more efficient in communicating intent.

  • Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()

    Jump

  • Apart from the quote from the zen of python, does this really make your code better though? You will end up writing 4-5 lines with an extra level of indentation. The code does the same, but has worse performance and communicates the intent poorly (compared to the “pythonic” version).

  • Elon Musk pressured Reddit’s CEO on content moderation

    Jump

  • Imagine being literally the richest man on earth and using your influence to delete mean comments that people wrote about you on the internet.

  • Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.

    Jump

  • “Now”? Try 10 years ago, at the very least.

  • Man whose daughter died from measles stands by failure to vaccinate her: "The vaccination has stuff we don’t trust"

    Jump

  • Of course he’s not changing his stance. Doing so would be admitting that his child died as a direct consequence of his own actions. He will forever be anti-vax from now on, even if his life depends on it.

  • The weirdest thing about switching to kagi was learning that the first few results have a good chance of being relevant. I got so used to scrolling down after a search. It was just weird to have the useful results on top. Similarly, learning that search syntax is actually meaningful and respected by the search engine (for the majority of cases).

  • Sergey Brin says AGI is within reach if Googlers work 60-hour weeks

    Jump

  • It is also absolutely 100% BS investor-bait. At this point it should be obvious that we have reached just about the peak of what LLMs can do. And it’s notably not Google’s Gemini even - other models are generally better. For AGI to be feasible, there should be a paradigm shift, which is not a function of more work hours.

  • Proton has stopped using their Mastodon account

    Jump

  • Out of curiosity, where did you move from Proton?

    Jellyfin is not just good... but better than Plex now?!

    Jump

  • Unfortunately the preinstalled old clients suck and there is no way for Plex to update them (this is on the TV manufacturers). If you are otherwise happy with your TV, you can get a better client via a HTPC or streaming box (such as nvidia shield or apple tv). Jellyfin clients might work better on those as well, e.g. you would get less transcoding.

  • Bad News for Trump as Brutal New Polls Show Musk Tanking

    Jump

  • The entire point of Musk being so visible is to pin all the unpopular stuff on him.

  • AI Will Save Dating Apps. Or Maybe Finally Kill Them

    Jump

  • Yes, they had a system where you answered questions about a wide range of topics, and answered what the ideal mate should say, then give a weight to how important that is for you. For example, you prefer chocolate over vanilla, and you want your mate to be the same, but it’s not an important factor. On the other hand, you prefer not to be a nazi, and it’s super important your mate isn’t one either. Also, there were IQ questions which allowed filtering out the stupid ones (like is the sun or the earth larger). Then the system would recommend profiles based on a match score computed from your answers. Really great. Got two relationships out of it, one is going 10 years today.

  • We're bringing Pebble back!

  • Gotcha. Yeah that’s a different game.
