The most aggravating part is it ignores booleans. Sometimes I want to search for very specific things that are variants of hyper-competitive SEO-slop, only without feature x. Like if I want to search for functional lamps that take bulbs (no

When a majority or plurality of people ignore a law unless a cop or camera is around then maybe it's time to update the law, perhaps by looking to see how other countries or jurisdictions address it. Some countries have higher speed li

ChatGPT's o1 is still really good and the free options are not compelling enough to switch if you've been using it for a while. They've positioned themselves to be a good mainstream default.

This is fun. I'd appreciate a way to select only certain continents/regions. At the very least let us mark a country as known. As it is there are too many reps when it's a country you already know.

The legal tender experiment failed, the crypto experiment is ongoing. An entrepreneurial audience like this would be more charitable in interpretation if this was a company in the middle of a pivot.

What's your objective metric? I would say one side has way more websites and apps blocked than the other. So if we go by that measure then I'd say the one with more websites and apps blocked is objectively worse.

Semantics aside, there's an objective list of who bans or censors more, and it's not even close. Not by an order of magnitude. Source: the great firewall's existence.

It's infinitely worse for someone abroad to have your SS because it is worth it for them to try for several days to scam you for just a few dozen dollars. There's an entire industry of scam farms run in Cambodia by CH gangs.
