You forgot AI.

What difference in comment quality do you mean exactly?

No, what I meant is that Telegram doesn't have E2EE in groups or channels. Never has, and probably never will.

> but even Telegram has E2EE in their similar offering

They absolutely don't have E2EE in groups, let alone channels.

-Channels are a one-way broadcast tool for admins

-Searchable directory (optional for a channel to be in), but also invite links

-Following a channel won't reveal your phone number to other followers and admins

-Channel history stored server-side for 30 days

-No end-to-end encryption in channels (yet?)

I don't think the behavior is strictly equivalent. From this extension's description:

When it's needed for the website to work properly, it will automatically accept the cookie policy for you (sometimes it will accept all and sometimes only necessary cookie categories, depending on what's easier to do).

>crosvm is currently used to run Linux/Android guests on ChromeOS devices.

This is literally in the second paragraph of the article.

Or you could just continue using "Reader Mode" (chrome://flags/#enable-reader-mode) which does basically the same thing with a single click in the url bar instead of using the awkward side panel.

Beautiful.

This is a pretty in-depth blog post by The Guardian's 3-persons development team about improving their notification platform to achieve the "90in2" goal:

Deliviring "breaking news" push notifications to 90% of the intended audience within two minutes.

I don't know Astro, and I'm sure other frameworks write similar stuff on their landing pages, but this state of web design just makes me puke.

Yeah, I don't know why my summary was flagged either. I like testing LLMs on article summarization (especially on articles about AI), and found this to be a very good summary, that's why I posted it.

Doctorow coined the term "enshitification" for this.

>I mean aren't all these points obvious to everybody?

Pretty much, yeah. Ironically, this makes rants like OP part of the AI PR Industrial Complex.

My favorite quote from the essay:

"When they [AI companies] do ‘do’ science, they are still using science mostly as an aesthetic. They publish papers with grand claims but provide no access to any of the data or code used in the research. Their approach to science is what “my girlfriend goes to another school; you wouldn’t know her” is to high school cliques."

Nice little tool!

From their Github page [0]:

  >this plugin was created by GPT-4 in just two hours

It uses the Intersection Observer API [1] to grep visible usernames on twitter.com and then checks the Wikipedia API if the property P2002 (Twitter username) [2] exists.

2: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P2002

Also, "it's important to note" has forever been tarnished as "AI generated" for me.

>a Brand on Twitter acting like a real human

>send all messages through them as a representative

Not sure what you're getting at. Everyone knows that some social media person/intern manages the corporate Twitter account. How would them sending mails or text messages signed with their name be any different eventually? But maybe it doesn't really matter for much longer anywAI.

This shows randomly selected summaries from English Wikipedia articles from a selection of 49652 articles that seem to be have been last crawled two years ago. [0]

Or (from the readme):

  cat /dev/urandom | hexdump -v -e '/1 "%u\n"' | awk '{ split("0,2,4,5,7,9,11,12",a,","); for (i = 0; i < 1; i+= 0.0001) printf("%08X\n", 100*sin(1382*exp((a[$1%8+1]/12)*log(2))*i)) }' | xxd -r -p | aplay -c 2 -f S32_LE -r 16000

That was even 15 years ago (September 2008, time flies...).

Not to be confused with old "reader mode", which unfortunately always has been hidden behind a the "#enable-reader-mode" flag.

It's starting to feel like AI people are becoming the new Crypto Bros.

It's a self-hostable chat interface for the OpenAI GPT API.

From their Github Readme:

SlickGPT allows you to run your own local ChatGPT instance, host it yourself or just use our instance if you like. Users bring their own OpenAI API keys. SlickGPT offers them a very fancy user interface with a rich feature set like managing a local chat history (in the localStorage), a userless "Share" function for chats, a prominent context editor, and token cost calculation and distribution.

There's also https://neuters.de, a Nitter-like alternative frontend for Reuters.
