This is exactly why HTML is so ubiquitous, because it is so tolerant of mistakes in formatting, syntax, and just about anything else. Most browsers will even read and process most of the things listed on this page because even if the spec d

Get a wrist rest to raise the hight of your wrist to match the keyboard, it does wonders.

The luxury market has been commoditised. No matter how many billions you have in the bank, you cant get a better netflix subscription, TV, or iPhone than the normal person. This is the 'march of progress' you speak of. The things

Yes we are reading the same page, except you seem to be cherry picking comments and missing the main broader picture: There are three main purposes that an operating system fulfills: Operating systems allocate resources between different a

Love the keyboard, great job! the website however is a terrible experience. There is so much movement whilst scrolling that it triggers my motion sickness.

No, I disagree with everything you are saying here. You have a very misguided opinion of what an OS is. You linked the wikipedia page which clearly says OSes are defined by managing resources and have an always running kernel. LLMs do not m

I used to write code all day, solving maths and logic problems which is what my brain loves to do, and so I loved my job. Now I talk to a robot all day, trying to figure out how best to tell it whats in my brain. I no longer do maths and lo

You seem to have a wrong definition of operating system in your head. The definition of Operating System is "The main software that manages a computer's hardware and software." An operating system is definitely not "just

None of the errors you mention are what I am experiencing. Their system is creating objects but returning that it couldnt, not failing to send a response. Some Apis are designed to always fail safe and send the correct response, or at least

I had the exact same thing with the Quickbooks api recently. You cannot trust the responses or webhooks at all. On create a user or invoice for example sometimes it will return an error, yet it actually created the entity. This means you ha

Agreed, its like OSes have become so invisible people have actually forgotten what they do.

It looks to me like they just wanted to distinguish their product from other AI agents/sandboxes, so they called it an OS to make it sound bigger and better.

They could, but if their donation ads said for example 'please help us to take more photos of live events' instead of 'we need your help to keep wikipedia alive' then they would not get half the donations they do current

Unfortunately the official definition of 'literally' now means both exact and exaggeration, so it is impossible to know what you are saying here /s

by alt227 3mo ago
I gave up when they changed the definition of literally to mean both literally and not literally, resulting in the word having zero purpose at all anymore as it is impossible to know the intention of the person saying it.

The point is when you go to Wikipedia and they are on a funding drive with their very prominent ads for donation requests, they dont mention any of this. They make it sound like wikipedia is very much at risk of dying due to lack of funds w
