It means that an AI model was given a brief of the application, access to its source code and then asked to build a website. It then predictably dialled up the marketing speak to 11.

I jumped randomly to New York and then New York State: Central which has a delightful Ford ad advertising a plane joyride with an additional text stating that if you buy a car now or make a bonafide order for one to be delivered soon, you c

I just got off from their 50GB plan and the amount of nagging has been insane. There's a giant banner in the photos app, a banner in the health app and everything else that I removed from icloud backups, strongly suggesting (in what I

I cannot speak for every country but in the Netherlands, your banking app also serves as a 2FA instrument if you place orders with your credit card. A pop-up notification will ask you to confirm if you have indeed placed the order. While I

> I personally think this obsession with open-source software is simply an obsession with communism and getting things for free, and not wanting getting rewarded for the value of the stuff you build, etc. Except that both platforms (iOS

The GNU stuff was precisely what FSF managed to do. They didn't manage to do more because they had a fraction of the resources large corporations had. People wanting more just doesn't create more by itself, they were reliant on ou

You tell us? You’ve just levelled an accusation and provided no information about what specifically happened. In general, a website cannot directly modify or change a browser’s certificate store through normal web browsing. This would be a

Linux can be an excellent choice if you're willing to invest time in finding compatible hardware. I’m running a 2023 laptop (Lenovo Yoga family) with a 12th Gen Intel CPU and have found the experience to be flawless. I'm using Fed

Ironically, Ubuntu's efforts to replace its GNU components with non-GNU alternatives is very quickly going to turn it back into just Linux.

Absolutely agree! Money only becomes an issue when someone asks for it politely. And then people ask why such efforts and projects die in the shadows.

A lens is a BIG part of the final image you get. So much so that the common advice in most photography forums is that within a price gap, buy the best lens you can find and an okay camera. Camera tech, especially in large dedicated full-fra

Can confirm. Something is deeply wrong with this site. I haven't seen my uBlock counter fly off like this in a while.

What is going on with the multiple stray mouse cursors? The site scrolls with a considerable lag and the mouse cursors are outright annoying.

That statement is patently incorrect. While the 'usefulness' of something can be subjective, the date of creation is an absolute, immutable fact.

Chat models were not invented with ChatGPT. Conversational search and AI was a well-established field of study well before ChatGPT. It is remarkable how many people unfamiliar with the field think ChatGPT was the first chat model. It may be

Don't assume they will never double-dip. The AppStore has ads inspite of Apple being a more "premium" platform.

I don’t think that’s a good argument against the original point. You’re essentially relying on PEPs to protect you against something you shouldn’t have done and which was eminently avoidable in the first place. The namespace __*__ should be

How do they think they’re supposed to do their job if they don’t even have a way to identify you in the first place. What is comical is your blend of ignorance of the technical needs of the product and arrogance to suggest that it should be

No problems with ideology when it’s right. Bundling documentation with the tool in a standard text format is the way to go. This can easily be reformatted for online wikis, manuals, etc.
