In the OLED regard. Other laptops had this for a decade now.
Not portable in what way?
There's definitely a difference there, though we will have to wait and see if the American AI industry didn't make those losing pockets too deep.
Oh, I must have read the comment too early in the morning and I cannot edit it anymore, apologizes. I completely agree about the PDF developer experience.
I disagree. PHP had a wonderful DX. Deploying a website literally meant connecting to the server over FTP, and drag-n-dropping your PHP files. Same for updates. Oh, and back then, IIRC even Windows Explorer supported FTP. It was literally just "write the URL, drop the files". How do you deploy a Node webapp? A python webapp? How do you make sure it stays up? Do you expose is directly or behind a nginx?
PHP won exactly because it had a wonderful DX.
What do you mean by "how"? The code is freely available, you can spin it up at will too in just a few minutes. When they disappear, sometimes it's because the maintainer doesn't want the headache, and sometimes it's because a they're threatened to remove it.
Or don't give it root access and in the morning you'll have both this and a ready-to-use root exploit!
But it doesn't make sense. Sure they'd find it extremely useful to have the key, but it doesn't need to be a weak key for it to be useful. If anything, it makes it less useful to them.
If I'm going to ask you or force you to share your password with me, there's no reason I'd ask you to set the password to 4. We might as well agree that the password would be D#!(s9fj0jalk!4af095SF42 , and it's much more likely our collaboration will continue working for years.

I'm on Arch too, but after installing NixOS on two side laptops I have, I kinda fell in love. I don't want to go through reconfiguring everything, but once this laptop dies, I'm going to switch.
Arch is really great, but using the system now for ~5 years I cannot remember where every configuration is, which packages are installed and why, and things just get messy. I'm sure that some issues the system has are do to things I screwed up along the way, and these will be solved if I just reinstall. But with NixOS it feels so easy to find what changes you've done to the system, to leave a comment saying why etc. It feels to me much more maintainable.
It's a 25% cut on the cost of RAM!
Cashless society in Sweden is very much built around a Swish, a local service that I don't think has much to do with Visa/Mastercard as it communicates directly with your bank.
With how easy it becomes to write software, I'd say that both the model and the harness are already being commoditized. I don't see a reason to believe there would be moat in any of them.
This looks really great, thank you for your work! However, "Entry into force" really is expected only around 2030? I'm not even sure most people will be consuming the internet using a browser then. It's sad to see that a process like this, which is very much needed, starts at 2020 and ends 10 years later. Clearly not your fault, but I'm just a little shocked.
We all wanted that! But than we feared that the USA will just cut our payment systems, government emails and basically every online service we have as it tries to take over Greenland.
What $30 projector are you looking at?
I don't need the family planner to be on the wall 24/7 though, it can be projected only when I'm at the room. Maybe even only when I'm close to the wall.
If I printed each recipe I followed... gush that would be a lot of paper, and also I bet that paper would get messy very quickly.
For a map, losing the ability to zoom, mark points etc seems like a big loss. Sure you can draw on it (how do you erase your mistakes?), but if everything you draw just ends up lost when you discard the paper, that's not so ideal.
I don't see any good reason to assume that these apps are less secure just because AI is used in the making of them. Bad developers and bad development practices existed long before LLMs.
If you're ever thinking about getting an ESP32-C3, do yourself a favor and get the variant that you can connect an external antenna to. The normal C3 has a built-in antenna that is extremely weak, making it useless for most things I was planning using it for.
Right-wing extremism in Germany is definitely not "normal people" for the most part.
Who will though? At this point it seems like a huge chunk of US economy growth can be attributed to AI. Bubble or not, I guess very few would benefit from bursting it?
I always thought Accept (and Accept-Language) headers are quite neat. Surely I can try article.es.md first, get a 404, try article.en.md, get a 404, try article.es.txt, article.en.html and so on, until I find the thing I'm looking for. But Accept let's me say "I'll take any one of these, preferably in this order". This is especially useful now when agents are reading the web and they don't really need all of our HTML code - just the text.
If you're versioning the whole API though, I agree it's best behind a a /v2/ prefix.
It's interesting — "knowing how to search" used to be a skill. One wouldn't search for "How did Cantor come up with his diagonal proof?", but rather "cantor diagonal proof origin". You would see "normies" searching and wanted to bang your head against the wall seeing them searching like they're talking.
But seems like they won? Why know how to search when you can simply ask your question. You can even tyipe it layke dat and it would still work.
Note sure what you mean by "tools". It does support function calling, so you can hook it to whatever tools you want. I'm using it with Home Assistant to control my smart home devices.

Not sure on which planet you're living, but we are being cooked already.
It sounds like your criticism is about their product, not about their business model.
The business model of having a popular product with great documentation, which leads free users to additional paid services, seems like a very valid business model.
Even the criticism you have for their product is along the lines of "the product only worked because they identified a problem in the market; If someone else identified it, this product wouldn't even be needed!". Which is, well, true, but also true for almost any other successful product.
