16% is so far removed from "most" that it undermines your entire argument, whatever it is.

Not for human consumption

A fully conscious one. :)

So we're just using "vibe coded" as a generic insult now for project we don't like?

> They are just everywhere, the web was never like this in the beginning.

Maybe briefly. I've been on the web since the late 90s and horrible banner ads (and for a while, shudder, flash ads) have been a thing for as long as I can remember. At least now we have good content blockers!

>John Smith hits you -> you seek relief from John's insurance company. John's insurance premium goes up. He can't afford that. Thus, effective financial feedback loop. Real skin in the game.

Ah great, so there's a lower chance of that specific John Smith hitting me again in the future!

An all-TTS audiobook offering is just about as appealing as an all-stable-diffusion picture gallery (that is, not at all).

This bug isn't that. It's the frontmost app losing focus to nothing.

Are you suggesting they carry around a Starlink dish in a backpack and deploy it on the go whenever they want to stream some music?

It's a pop sci magazine, of course they use language like that. Actual academic papers are different.

He's the Stephen Wolfram of game dev.

They did well to get acquired before the AI bubble pops.

Schild's Ladder is my personal favourite.

This is on the order of the "descartes before the whores" joke on reddit years ago. Generational stuff

GTK theming was a mess long before libadwaita came along.

Trust me, I do understand all that. My personal set of trade-offs is such that I really can't be bothered with self-hosting.

Capacities has one-click export of all of your objects (notes/pages) with a sensible folder structure that produces markdown with frontmatter and includes all media attachments. That's good enough for me.

capacities.io

This is why I love Capacities. It's object oriented with properties and tags. No folders.

I watched Threads for the first time recently and it really did ruin the rest of my day. I still think about it regularly. It influenced my thinking on the threat of nuclear annihilation a lot.

If you don't feel like watching the whole film (and you definitely should, the first third is all lead-up and it's masterfully done - and the aftermath part is the most believable post-apocalypse I've ever seen in a movie) you should at least watch the bombing scene:

I haven’t read the book, but in TFA it’s described as a “lavishly visual book” so I’m not sure it would translate well to audio.

No clue what would give you that idea.

Bracing myself for the next generation of self-important monochrome tech ‘zines coming out of Spain

I'm still upset that Markdown ended up getting all the mindshare. AsciiDoc is so much nicer.

Wow. Phrasing!

> Life is inherently suffering and has no meaning.

I'd hate to hear your winter perspective :)

Huh, interesting. Kind of a real-life Flowers for Algernon scenario.

I adored the books and I think the Netflix series is pretty good so far (it’s not finished).

You know damn well that people often use "internet" and "web" interchangeably.

Exactly. You can claim to be the "first" at something very easily this way. Check out my browser, we're the first with an integrated flight simulator!
