So far, the EU's track record on privacy is definitely a lot better though. Not saying it'd always stay that way of course.

The emphasis of "domestic" surveillance is definitely concerning.

That's true but OpenAI also isn't introducing ads to the Plus accounts as far as I'm aware.

>Not Google. Google's main revenue source (~ 75%) is advertising. They will absolutely try to shove in ads into their AI offerings. They simply don't have to do it this quickly.

I find the quality is not consistent at all and of all the LLMs I use Gemini is the one most likely to just verge off and ignore my instructions.

I think Kagi buys search engine results from SERP vendors who typically scrape Google’s results and offer an API experience on top of it.

I find your critique not very sensible. Point-of-sale systems are not necessarily tied to the payment terminal just because they communicate to each other. If companies choose to use Stripe they do have to set up their own invoicing and tax

Stripe never claimed to handle tax however. Merchants have to handle tax on their own. This is no different than accepting cash or using a card terminal in your shop. The payment processor does not handle your tax for you.

The SE has a minimum capital requirement of 120k € so is not within reach for most people. I think this EU-Inc would be a simple structure with a lower threshold. I am absolutely for it. There are too many different types of company structu

DB‘s quality decline started when this move to privatization happened. They didn’t put money into maintenance, closed lot of tracks and ignored all warnings by experts who predicted this exact scenario more than a decade ago. Most of the ti

It’s a complicated question nowadays as the first generation of networks that were really all about networking have mostly died out or morphed into algorithmic feeds. So the question is whether there’s a market for this classical networking

Was there any concern about giving the LLM access to this return data? Reading your article I wondered if there could be an approach that limits the LLM to running the function calls without ever seeing the output itself fully, e.g., only s

In a grand view removed 1000 years from now the introduction of digital communication and their network effects must have been pivotal though even if it was in a negative way (which very well may be). I just doubt that would then be a point

If you share this link on a public forum like HN you might want to add more than an error message for mobile devices so people might be incentivized to switch to desktop or bookmark it for later. Otherwise really impressive.
