If anyone needs the internet to work again (or to get into your cf dashboard to generate API keys), if you have Cloudflare WARP installed, turning it on appears to fix otherwise broken sites. Maybe using 1.1.1.1 does too, but flipping the

ChatGPT's moat is their name and user habit. People who are using it will keep using it. All/most of the products are _good enough_ for the people who already got used to using them, that they arent exploring competitors. Micros

At least at the moment, coming in late seems to matter little. Anyone with money can trivially catch up to a state of the art model from six months ago. And as others have said, late is really a function of spigot, guardrails, branding, and

To the point where I'm approaching a need for a "mint for loyalty points" because of how in the dark they accumulate and expire. Where is my dashboard to track all points everywhere, (and trade, sell, exchange them, which I

my GPT-40 was 100% perfect on the first click. Since then, garbage. Gemini 2.5 perfect on the 3rd click.

I just fundamentally do not understand the economics of why everybody is so worried about aging and depopulation. TECHNOLOGY. ROBOTS. We us technology to increase production. We create more with less. Automation and technology should cre

Something like a style transfer works better in Whisk. Still quirky and hit and miss.

This is mostly my physics ignorance talking, but if we measure distance in space-time and not just space, and speed or velocity is space-time/time (which somehow are both relative to each other) and the derivative of velocity is accele

Wouldn't you rather reapply a coating that allows the base to regrow, than have to constant get them ground out and replaced as they accumulated small damage? Growth sounds way better than static existence.

You can buy the supplies and make nano silver flouride now, relatively cheaply compared to dental work. If you have a non corporate dentist, you could even ask them to apply it. The basic mechanism has been used on teeth forever, and addi

This article is an example of generalization. Because Paw Patrol is normal and popular, the author assumes weird tv doesn't also exist en mass. It's just that there is more than ever, and you cant use merchandise on shelves to d

People want to give you snarky responses without having read the article. This is a push for a new way to interact with computers. Using natural language, at every part of the interface, to give the computer instruction. Allowing those in

Part of the reason for the blinking icon begging to be used is because AI chat is a new interface being grafted onto existing products. It's difficult to get people to make the habit of using a different interface to a familiar produc

Have you noticed image generation models tend to really struggle with the arms on archers. Could you whip up a quick test of some kind of archer on horseback firing a flaming arrow at a sailing ship in a lake, and see how all the models do

It doesn’t do anything for pushing authentication remotely or controlling access within apps, such as voice chat in Roblox. Each app has proprietary controls. It also doesn’t begin to cover notifications. For some reason most services see
