Would you release AGI to the general populous if you had it internally is the opposing question.

For me personally integration marketing.

Slack, IFFT those sorts of platforms already having a user base willing to try new things . Massive.

I wonder how much additional traffic, links, seo benefit and general brand awareness this site has generated simply off doing things to this standard.

A fly wheel of benefits.

I have such an appreciation for write ups like this. Reminds me I'm not a real programmer at all.

Missed a trick not starting this title with Florida man.
I'd argue the minute they turn to an advertising model that subscriptions would churn overnight, but in the same vein as the don't be evil motto being dropped I nod at the scepticism.

I know. Right. Its not like they are searching any sort of volume.

Pretty quick way to figure that out is to ask for it now, build the landing page.
Re:This is what the year actually looks like (2018) on Thursday October 19, 2023 @04:04AM (#37939890)
Fwiw I think of the year in much the same way as a clock face.. the 12 months and 12 hours thing essentially matches somewhat 1 to 1 for me. So circle representation is what follows. Im actually surprised in the variations too.
100s of endpoints with various evolving payloads across 100s of developers.

The problem space is shared documentation, not 'make http request'

This sort of app helped hold the fabric of the internet together before facebook et al fucked it. Great work.
If its on nextjs I've a feeling there are auth providers kicking about to implement sso at least.
If Openai can win the developer market with cheap api access and a better product, then distribution becomes through third parties with everyone else becoming the product sending training data back to the model. I'd see that as their current strategy.
I went to try this out only to read the words 'download the software'.

Good luck with that. Even the Firefox plugin requires some additional setup. Frictionless it ain't. By a long stretch.

Sigh.

The fact the you choose to keep this project ad free is fire.

Thanks for posting this. In Belfast here totally going.

Re:Web scraping with Python open knowledge on Friday May 27, 2022 @02:37PM (#31533152)
Is there subsets of common crawl anywhere for individual sites. E.g. YouTube for example?
I love everything about this idea. If any of you remember mybloglog which was acquired by yahoo back in the day, they had all the ingredients that were missing from the web back when the cool kids were calling in web2.0. I met and interacted with so many blog writers who were able to see me land on their website and followed my profile back to mine, opening up a whole new social experience for those who created on the web. I hope this service moves in that direction over time, providing an escape from the walled Gardens of social media today and bringing it back to the open web where it belongs. Why Google or others haven't decided to ship a similar service right in Chrome is beyond me .. instead of a me too offering that was Google Plus.. the open web itself is where those social interactions and connections to me make most sense.
If people started using the word 'false' instead of disinformation I think the distinction would be clearer.

We aren't talking about good results versus bad results here surely? When did bias come into it? Merely falsehoods versus truths? Or have we got to the point where no one actually believes in such anymore and it depends on your political opinion on whether something is true or false?

Fact or fiction. Let your political direction decide.

Surely removing fictious results should be a bonus for everyone?

I give up. World has gone pure stone mad.

Re:Facebook Pay on Sunday February 13, 2022 @02:57AM (#30320089)
No surprise there. Consumer apps versus business apps reviews are hilarious.

'My boyfriend dumped me on this app last week. One star.'

'This app listens to my conversations and serves me ads. One star'.

At best it's the product not the applcation being reviewed. At worst, it's the general public howling at the moon.
