I am _fighting_ with elderly relatives to adjust their YouTube habits. They didn't even know it comes on autopilot by default. They don't even check sources, they just let the garbage in.

Sendgrid is such an enshittified product, I am grateful this now exists and integrates directly with tools I have on cloudflare already.

I can see many cases where installing an IoT camera will be more reliable and less costly than, "shut down equipment to unplug this analog instrument, hook up a digital one, calibrate it, then restart the equipment". If it ain&#x2

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't some of the wiring/compute needed to operate your limbs in the spinal cord? So, even if you replace the brain, you actually need the whole spinal cord too in order for the whole system to in

Yes, it's pretty good! I've also written API harnesses for bot-based browser automation so that you can detect fields to fill in, remember where they are for next time you need them, and then if the webpage changes, re-explore and

Very interested. Would even pay for an api for this. I am doing something similar with vibium and need something more token efficient.

Show me how the capital costs of rolling out high PSI hydrogen infra will be cheaper than building a power grid. You can even refit and re-use existing natural gas pipelines to move hydrogen if you want to cheat. I am willing to bet the cos

Not a typo. The good plumbers bill by $180-200 per 15 minutes. If they are independent, they take all of that home. If they are part of a larger company, they are still pocketing a significant portion of that billing depending on how the pl
