I've been itching to revisit Neal Asher's Polity universe for a hopeful glimpse of the future. Sure, the AI overlords are not without fault, but at least their goals are benevolent
I just did this today on a hunch after a meandering session. Prompting the bot to ask both "how and why" questions was a surprisingly effective way to bring back the key points of the design.
I'm wondering if this could be a PR gate - a human must answer a quiz succesfully before it can be merged...
Thanks for pointing out safereddit and other redlib instances! I had the old.reddit.com redirect configured for Uruky and was devastated that it no longer worked. Updated, cheers!

How (why) does that site block reader mode... At least on Firefox Android it offers the reader mode button, but turning it on just redirects back to the page (which is too wide, hence the reader mode attempt)
I think they referred to 'if Uruky keeps out of AI, I'll be willing to try again later'
Yeah, as mentioned in the post, so were mine before turning on the recommended configurations. Afterwards they've been quite nice

Juxt's Allium
https://juxt.github.io/allium/ is an interesting entry in this 'pseudo DSL' space to define and store system specifications and requirements. I think it's likely that this sort of 'persistent specifications to help bots work correctly' will be a good approach when things finally cool down a bit.

Onego Bio is using fungi to produce ovalbumin, one of the major protein in eggs. Their process seems stable, so it might play a big role especially in industrial food production pretty quickly

Humble Bundle has spoiled me and my ebook library has grown by around a 100 books this year...
Tech book recommendations: 'Secure by Design', 'Designing Data-Intensive Applications', 'Building Secure and Reliable Systems' and 'Fundamentals of Software Architecture'.
For scifi: 'Murderbot Diaries' and 'The Expanse' - both are just great entertainment
From a user perspective, yeah, practically every site I have to create an account for would be better if the signup was that simple. They're all basically one time throwaway accounts anyway, so why not treat them as such at the service level. Of course from the business view, there's all sorts of reasons, but one can dream...
Thanks for pointing out the terms of service agreement thing - it was so unobtrusive that I just glanced over it!
Now that is an impressive account setup process for sure! Glad to see these kinds of flows exist.

It did appear briefly on the first page, but at the time the site timed out quite a lot so maybe that caused a sudden drop
A better title would be "Ethical Computing Initiative".
Their status page is interesting https://aol.codeberg.page/eci/status.html
Surprised it doesn't mention Orion browser by Kagi, but I guess it's still a bit niche

Great news! I can't find any other sources, but it would be weird for Breyer to post this if it wasn't confirmed
