@scottwilson @servo @ladybirdbrowser

man I hope so! Im so tired of chrome and firefox being the only games in town.

@scottwilson
I also went to Vivaldi from FF, but they are still a chromium fork and couldnt support uBlock, so I left them ultimately for another FF fork, called Floorp.

If the uBlock thing hadnt come up I would have stuck with vivaldi probably, I was pretty happy with it once I got it customized to my liking.

Why would we need precogs, they can tell if you are a criminal based on skin color already... -_-

what, no one is going to talk about the fact that it didnt close the parenthesis?

@osma its definitely doable. I dont think LLMs are super great at HTML output, but they are pretty damn good at markdown, so you could do markdown to html conversion yourself.

generating images would be a problem at that hw scale, so you would need lots of stock images, but it sounds funny to me, none the less.

@drtcombs There is a way to turn it off in the windows registry settings but you have to have access to that, and you wont if its a corporate laptop. if you do, I can send you some links and such.

I turn on my PC.

The local wildlife are immediately sterilised by the excessive output from my four exposed nuclear reactors running at a critically risky heat output.

The sound of 10,000 cooling fans deafens the city’s morning traffic as my warehouse of 500 parallel-chained AMD Razer Threadrippers bursts into life, forming the equivalent processing power of 2015 in one room.

Nearby, my cluster of Nvidia 6090 Test Cards begins to warp the local time continuum as they calculate answers man was never meant to know.

Very gently, I open Microsoft Teams.

Instantly, the already deafening noise of fans increases to a murderous wail as they try to keep my equipment at operating temperatures. A nuclear reactors’ fusion catches up with its cooling and explodes destroying the lives of millions. The floor begins to melt away as my processors over clocked ten-fold reach critical mass and descend directly into hell. My Nvidia cluster collapses into a singularity and begins to devour the planet.

Quickly now, I open a text chat, it’s a bit laggy.

The sheer struggle of loading some text destroys the remaining systems. Me and my equipment are deleted from reality by an unknown overseer.

Ok so, yesterday I was laid off from the company I worked for.

Since I now have fixed expenses, going without income is not an option, so I will proceed to request help from the community here.

I'm looking for a job. It could be in almost anything, even things I don't know, since I can learn quickly. Still, I'd prefer it to be on the front-end development side (mobile, web, desktop, whatever) since that's where I'm most comfortable.

My current knowledge is:
- Flutter: Dart, Freezed, BLoC, etc
- React: Web, Native, Zustand, JS/TS, etc
- GTK: Libadwaita, Soup, Peas, C, Vala, JS/TS, Rust

Boosts appreciated

the only honest SaaS comparison chart

A humorous chart titled "Every Competitor Comparison" contrasts "Our Amazing Product" with "Their Steaming Pile" across several categories. Both have logos. "Our Amazing Product" checks all boxes: does industry-standard things, includes a proprietary widgetron, is developed by handsome geniuses—but ironically, does not make money. The competitor partially does industry-standard things (with a note: "*we will not elaborate") and fails at everything else. Created by @forrestbrazeal.

I noticed that a *lot* of the crawlers/bots we see on www.bbc.co.uk & www.bbc.com are spoofed e.g. a "Meta" crawler coming from 10s of different small ISPs across the world (the real one comes from a Meta ASN).
I deployed a change this morning which adds source ASN validation (alongside user-agent string analysis) to our "known crawlers/bots" classifier & well, the results speak for themselves. Attached graphs show RPS from "known crawlers/bots" to www.bbc.co.uk & www.bbc.com.

Graph of requests from "known crawlers/bots" over time to www.bbc.co.uk for today.
The graph is relatively steady until about 08:45 UTC when it drops by about 90%Graph of requests from "known crawlers/bots" over time to www.bbc.com for today.

@n_dimension 100% agree. I left openai as the service continued to degrade. Pretty happy with claude these days.
