Everyone trying to vibecode their next million dollar idea only discover the web is dead. Nobody is looking for anything because that would require leaving the safety of the same handful of sites everyone else is on.
10% chance it will cause human extinction. 11% chance it kills almost everyone. 12% chance it kills slightly less than almost everyone…
Blame Google and its AI summaries. Not so easy or practical for the rest of us to put our sites behind a login.
How does it compare to CMUX?
I dislike UUIDv7 for no other reason than I hate any UUID with a dash. Makes navigating/selecting ids a pain with Ctrl/Cmd left/right arrow.
It's too bad Kimi K3.1 Pro cached input is twice the price of Sol 6.1 at 20 cents.
Remember to set minimum input text size at 16px to avoid iOS zoom in on focus.
I think it's becoming clear that although the media just happily accepts the left-wing bias accusations, they are by no means left-wing. They shouted every random Biden mistake from the rooftops while this administration mostly gets a free pass.
>This is probably good in some sense - you can argue that it's not healthy for states like CA to "own" so much of GDP end-to-end
So a state invests in educating its residents, only for other states to reap the economic benefits?
Anyone without a big C in their job title will be on war footing soon enough.
Firefox should just have a 'Chrome' mode where it just shamelessly looks exactly like Chrome. Apart from Chrome removing the flag to hide the close buttons on tabs, I think the UI is damn near perfect.
Let me launch a giant space laser that randomly vaporizes cities. Just a tool, right?
Exactly. There's a reason the tech bros line up to bend the knee to Trump.
It's funny watching these older movies and tv shows where the presidency was portrayed as being dignified and statesmanlike which now seems so laughably unrealistic.
I’ve done the exact same thing. I remember switching to Mac 20 years ago and the very first time I contorted my hand to use the copy shortcut and thinking…lol nope.
ChatGPT give me some bullet points for my listing

For those who have let AI build sufficiently large projects, what worked out better for you: AI writing raw CSS, or restricting it to Tailwind utility classes?
And if the bad things happen, just mosey on down to your private island or doomsday bunker.
As a kid I found the gameplay for most Atari 2600 games so shallow I could barely stand to play a game more than a few minutes… except for Combat. Man with two players, that was fun.
Yahoo never should have given up their human-curated index, we need it now more than ever.
Democrats will point fingers at Trump but there's no way they roll any of these tariffs back when they regain power, as much as I wish they would.
I don’t understand how there isn’t a website out there tracking this stuff already.
Have fun cleaning Cornucopia.
Isn't Siri just a bunch of devs in a room editing conditional statements? They'd have to throw out the ecosystem once they embraced a real AI.
Don’t forget about how they desperately try to figure out what to do with their hands.
To Apple, files are an unsightly thing they need to sweep under the carpet, if you have to interact with files they probably believe they’ve done something wrong.
Look at Apple Mail, they used to bury attachments behind a button and even now they just drop them at the end of the email.
Ugh...this is totally going to happen.
Answer engine optimization (AEO)
They gave it the same design language as their vacuums, and honestly I don't think they want people making that association. It's kinda ick.
