Plaid is criticized because it’s a public-facing mechanism for third-party access into your finances, but many companies already have access without you knowing. In the US, many banks share nonpublic info such as transactions with retailers

The article doesn't really get into the details. Does it analyze the user agent and compare it to a list of known bot user agents? What about all the bots that spoof user agent values – does it do something special to detect those?

It must have been so fun to be Benjamin Franklin. He installed an electric bell in-line on his first lightning rods so that this increase in electrical potential would cause the bell to ring, signaling that the danger for lightning was incr

Obviously I’m virtue signaling, and I hope instilling a feeling of shame in people who support businesses that contribute to climate change. But more than that, the emissions generated by the Colossus data centers are far worse than typical

One of the reasons I refuse to use xAI’s models is because of the outsized negative environmental impacts of the methane gas turbines. Now I have to avoid Claude too.

Mexico already has “universal healthcare.” The public hospitals are so bad and chaotic that most people who can afford to pay private insurance so they can go to private hospitals. The article doesn't state explicitly, but I guess this

I've never experienced a miracle, but I'm surrounded by people who claim to have seen one or know somebody who did. I'm still waiting for mine. I met with a supposedly realized Buddhist master in a monastery in Nepal and aske

If I had been tethering to mobile hotspot at the time it would have instantly used 500 pesos of data. That’s 3x my monthly electric bill.

I accidentally clicked the Claude Cowork button inside the Claude desktop app. I never used it. I didn't notice anything at the time, but a week later I discovered the huge VM file on my disk. It would be really nice to ask the user, “

Happy is buggy af and is in the middle of a rewrite (see its Discord). A fork named Happier looks promising, but is alpha-stage and is also a mystery-meat vibe-coded security roulette.

The README claims “Full feature parity with pi,” but I presume pz does not support pi’s extension/package ecosystem (because they’re all writted in TS and so would require bundling node/bun) – is that correct? One of the highlight

I just learned yesterday that ChatGPT (and maybe others) can’t connect to a MCP running on localhost; it needs an endpoint on the public internet. (I guess because the request comes from OpenAI servers?) I’d rather not expose a private MCP

Although I rarely hit my limit in my $20 a month Codex plan, I can imagine this would be very useful. The issue I have more often is that I will start a conversation in ChatGPT, and realize an hour later that I needed all that context to be

Update: I switched to Qwen3 VL 2B (`qwen3-vl-2b-instruct-mlx@bf16`) which is 2.5× faster than 4B (11s vs 18s per screenshot) and my meager M1 Pro is able to keep up without the fans spinning 100% of the time.

I've got it installed with Qwen3-VL-4B running in LM Studio on my MBP M1 Pro. (Yes, the fans are running.) GLM-OCR didn't work because it returns all text on the screen, despite the instructions asking only for a summary. Screen

Screen sharing to any remote API is a nonstarter for me. I don’t care if the API claims ZDR; Snowden’s revelations are still echoing. So, I appreciate that the app supports a custom endpoint for local models. Which local models did you try?

Did you scroll through the pricing options? The largest Kimi plan is $199/month. “Much better” depends on how much usage is included vs. Anthropic plans/API costs.
