One of the best kept secret and one that he should have tried is "Kate". Good old style editor that is a native app, not an electron app. All the features that you might want and more, but simple and efficient. And the most import

All what was expected, first they do a huge campaign to out evil scrapers. We should use their service to ensure your website block LLMs and bots to come scraping them. Look how bad it is. And once that is well setup, and they have their wa

Crazy how something legal and that should stay legal is easily restricted to use through big company own initiative to limit it and evil politicians bending innocuous laws and regulation bodies to block legal content that they don't li

Honestly I hate so much infinite scroll. It is a nightmare to see it spread like that. Before you would easily go to see pages at random far positions. With infinite scroll there is this frustration of not reaching a bottom and after a few

As a staff, you don't even imagine what his salary is for screwing up like that. That being said, interesting to see how salaries skyrocketed over the years: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_sa

They said "less safe" but they didn't say "less safe" for who. It is obviously less safe for dictatorial government and so they can't tolerate that...

In a single given website, accepting cookies look innocuous. But to me, what is mind blowing, is when one day you accept the cookies on random e-commerce or review website about vacuum cleaner, and then later when you browse news or look at

Privacy policies and usage terms are like the magic wand of the industry. Whatever totally bad they want to do and however they want to abuse of you and of your data, they just have to add a few unreadable lines in a 40 pages document and t

I'm not to fire people usually but this long report shows that there are probably too many persons too well paid with nothing to do at Cloud flare. Because that is a lot of energy spent too have done advance research for an UI that is

Not specifically for the Mac light, but nowadays I find it very annoying that everything as a small led light for sleep or just indicate power, or power plugged. At night it is very hard to have a dark room to sleep in small apartments or b

No, but who said that downloading and running a random binary found on internet is a good idea? As I said, it's like being back 20 years back in the past.

It blows my mind that nowadays, some random tools on internet tells you to do "curl -fsSL https://.... | bash" to install some "binary" things and a lot of people will do it without hesitation. It probably expl

It is the moment like that where it looks obvious for third parties to use it and only it to vet customers. To the point where you are forced to deal with Google because parties "can't do anything about it". The moment that 8

Stripe is a pain in the ass as a buyer, so I really hope they won't be able to acquire competitors and become a de facto monopoly. For example, when you're traveling abroad and can't buy a service online with your card, you c

Even restricting the mitigation to "students and hobbyists" is bad. I should have the right to have parents, friends or anyone use a "free" store that is not under control of Google if the user and app developer wish so.

Also something that frustrated me a lot is that when browsing with the web browser on a computer, there is absolutely no way to share a link to a post. For exemple there is a post with details about an event that will happen, when you look

What is nice is that sometimes you will just write very badly what you want to say, like a scenario or badly written sentences, and just ask the LLM to reformulate that to be proper nicely written text. But in that case, there are big chanc

Sadly it shows that there is really a kind of "world order" conspiracy, and it is not conspiracy theorists that are crazy as we always assumed. Just have a look at Epstein files, you can see that a lot of "occidental" po
