There are ways to watermark text generated by an LLM, but i am curious about if and how they are doing it to STT services. If i say "The cat is on the mat", and the STT writes that down, the text is still technically transcribed by an ai. Is "transcribed" included in the wide definition covered by "generated"? well it seems it depends who you ask to. IANAL so i can't tell.

I'd rather not see photographs in the menu then seeing fake images.

It's definitely vibe coded, look at the top of the dotted-map... what's going on there?

i find it so funny that the first listed job is from palantir, a classic european company
it's so validating getting the same conclusion we got to from someone that i've never met. it seems that they create these products without ever speaking with someone with that problem.

Funnily enough we're creating a competitor of these third party app that you mention, with the huge experience of my colleague that is son of blind parents.

We have an mvp online but it's not much yet and i really don't want to be the "do you know i have an app?" guy.

There are ways to analyze the content of your app so you know exactly what's taking all the space.

Tools can vary depending on what language you used. For example i wrote a small app using flutter and i used the flutter's app size tool.

it's another LLM with "revolutionary training process"

Re:Nearly all UK drivers say headlights are too bright on Tuesday November 18, 2025 @10:12AM (#45967254)
If i may add, they won't complain because the headlights of their cars aren't the ones that are flashing directly at their own face. To them the problem will always be the other's cars having the lights too bright.
Re:Pasta Cooking Time on Tuesday September 30, 2025 @09:28AM (#45425173)
Cooking time can be a good indicator. If it says 10 minutes you can start to check it out by 8 and decide from there.
Blog posts are really a scourge both when learning to do something new, and when you're googling your way out of a bug. Most of them are stuck in time (so no updates ever) and find solutions to problems that are similar to the one you're solving, but not quite the same.
