- Comment on Head of the Signal app threatens to withdraw from Europe 2 days ago:
This does fuck all for “security”. It’s targeting, mainly, power users and puts just more hoops for developers. This has nothing with security (they should purge malware from Play store first) and everything to do with consolidating power over users.
It’s a blatant power grab and I’m surprised to see this interpreted as anything else. Arguing about semantics just helps Google fuck everyone over.

From my understanding blue and red shifting is mostly related to movement. Like when a firetruck run past you with sirens on, you can hear change in pitch when compared it moving towards you vs away from you.
It’s a similar effect with galaxies, red shifting means that after the light was emitted the space between us has increased and the light kind of stretched out to longer wave.Now anyone with more knowledge on the subject, please correct me.

As much as I hate it, Apple has good products. And it’s enough for enough people to have active development community. By that point it’s catch 22.

- Comment on Codeberg: army of AI crawlers are extremely slowing us; AI crawlers learned how to solve the Anubis challenges. 1 month ago:
Well there you have it. Although I still feel weird that it’s somehow “the internet” that’s supposed to solve a problem that’s fully caused AI companies and their web crawlers.
If a crawler keeps spamming and breaking a site I see it as nothing short of a DOS attack.Not to mention that
robots.txtis completely voluntary and, as far as I know, mostly ignored by these companies. So then what makes you think that any them are acting in good faith?To me that is the core issue and why your position feels so outlandish. It’s like having a bully at school that constantly takes your lunch and your solution being: “Just bring them a lunch as well, maybe they’ll stop.”

Dunno, I feel you’re giving way too much credit to these companies.
They have the resources. Why bother with a more proper solution when a single crawler solution works on all the sites they want?Is there even standardization for providing site dumps? If not, every site could require a custom software solution to use the dump. And I can guarantee you no one will bother with implementing any dump checking logic.
If you have contrary examples I’d love to see some references or sources.
- Comment on Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery 1 month ago:
Yes, especially at work. Different tasks, different tab groups. Once the task is done, the group dies. Really useful when working on multiple tasks at “the same time”.
Pair that with multi account containers and temporary containers and it’s a godsend tool for web dev.

Hey, you do you. I refuse to use anything apple related, but I’ll be damned if they don’t make great hardware and extremely convenient ecosystem.

- Comment on We need to stop pretending AI is intelligent 2 months ago:
I rarely find good use for a semicolon sadly.
- Comment on We need to stop pretending AI is intelligent 2 months ago:
Lithuanian. We do have composite words, but we use vowel, if necessary, as connecting sounds. Otherwise dashes usually signify either dialog or explanations in a sentence (there’s more nuance, of course).
- Comment on We need to stop pretending AI is intelligent 3 months ago:
My language doesn’t really have hyphenated words or different dashes. It’s mostly punctuation within a sentence. As such there are almost no cases where one encounters a dash without spaces.
- Comment on We need to stop pretending AI is intelligent 3 months ago:
Am I… AI? I do use ellipses and (what I now see is) en dashes for punctuation. Mainly because they are longer than hyphens and look better in a sentence. Em dash looks too long.
However, that’s on my phone. On a normal keyboard I use 3 periods and 2 hyphens instead.
