This is what makes it bananas for me. I don't know what Microsoft is thinking if they allow this.
I also have these toggles, while being on a free plan. I must have set them to disabled at setup because that's how they are now.

Would there be a way to turn a user's account into an RSS feed? i mean the accounts of other users, not the own, personalized feed.

It's also triggering me. Wait, genuinely triggering me.

I can't wait for Mistral to host these models. For those who don't know yet, Mistral is pivoting to also offer Chinese models in their own cloud.

It basically is a deprecated project.

Google should read this too. They simply remove Android apps and Chrome extensions without a single word. No page explaining why they removed it.

No government would like you to use anything else but iOS or a major vendor's Android distribution. Imagine we'd had the freedom... unacceptable.
Re:Linux 7.3 improves performance when running out of vRAM on Tuesday August 18, 2026 @10:45AM (#49346382)
Windows does freeze when a Chromium-based browser decides to hug the pc.

Chrome/Vivaldi are the only browsers where, when i have a long HN page open, when i resize it, my laptop freezes for like a minute. Not a full freeze, the mouse still moves, but like it's the year 1999 with a refresh rate of 4 seconds.

From "What chat mode can’t give you", non-code Claude on the web.
Re:How to organize Claude Code for product work on Tuesday August 11, 2026 @09:32AM (#49258033)
Claude.ai Web (non-Code) has this feature where you can write into /areas/ or /topics/ and these files are automatically updated in other chat's sandboxes (but not re-loaded in those chats).

You cannot write the files directly nor can you download them directly, but you can ask a chat to show you the content or only the mermaid diagram that exists in workspace.md (or however you want to name it), and mermaid can represent quite complex networks out of the box, their relations, what is blocking something else, and so on. Chats can then edit this file with search-and-replace instead of re-writing it all over again.

Not really. It is true in a way, but the question is if this game is made to collect data, or just to present a game, where the recordings are then deleted, in good faith.

The developer's homepage gives the impression that this is more for the tech and fun aspect, rather than collecting speech samples.

If you are not skilled they are not chaos, just more distracted, wasting tokens in being nice to humans. It could still teach one very well so that one improves its domain expertise.

I'd rather have them battle on the topic "Who builds a better Google Wave for LLM chats" to explore the space of how AI studios could be.

It looks like these frontier-model companies don't really monitor their systems. Like OpenAI not realizing that it is their own AI which is attacking HuggingFace.
