Google building harder walls against bots while simultaneously building AI agents that need to get through them is peak 2026.
- mandeepj 5mo agoPoint On! Probably done by two different teams, who don't know about each other. I hate this (re)captcha so bad. They assume everyone is bad.
- tardedmeme 5mo agoThey're expecting everyone to whitelist Google agents because Google has the market share for people to complain if Google agents don't work.
- throwaway67743 5mo agoWith the apparent competence that built Gemini, I have zero faith in Google building or doing anything that works anymore.
- throwaway67743 5mo agoTo counter the idiot downvotes, I proffer this as a prime example of Gemini: Resolving Final Compilation Conflict: I will remove the redundant `Entry` type declaration to resolve the compilation conflict and finalize the in-memory `StdNetDB` refactor. Edit std.go → Accepted (+0, -1) 31 type Entry struct { 32 RouterInfo *router_info.RouterInfo 33 } 34 - 34 func NewStdNetDB(db string) *StdNetDB { 35 ctx, cancel := context.WithCancel(context.Background()) 36 return &StdNetDB{ That and the cli keeps exiting 0, without hinting why... Quality like the "AI Overview" that hijacks an entire page and isn't even relevant to the search terms - uBlock still doing god's work. It made me realise I was perhaps a bit hard on Claude (but then it did something equally as dumb)
- Analemma_ 5mo agoIt’s the same thing with Sam Altman and Worldcoin: create the problem, then sell people the solution (which also just so happens to shred more privacy). Play both sides and profit; it’s great work if you can get it.
