  1. Users will be content too, corporations will find a way to do that.

    Via discounts, promo codes, gamification, whatever else they’re using today to get people to install their apps and sign over their privacy.

  2. At the risk of sounding too paranoid, I fear dilution of responsibility, an increase in the amount of errors and hallucinations everywhere and the reality slowly becoming a Willy’s Chocolate Experience[1] sequel.

    Personally I’m not planning to use AI in my browser, at least not in its current error prone and opaque form.

  3. This is conspiracy theory territory but I wonder if big tech is sponsoring efforts like this as an easy way to get training data.
  4. Nobody said iWord.
  5. Too many edge cases, some would still be exploitable. Eg if the real address was:

        Sheriff.CI.Jacksonville.FL.US
    
    Malicious actors could register:

        Sheriff.Jacksonville.FL.US
    
    Unless your solution is to add some verification step as part of .us registrations.
  6. Works both in job interviews and real projects!

    I’m almost serious, the only time I saw haskell in production was after a similar scenario.

  7. Note: webgpu in Safari Mobile requires ios 26[1].

    Sharing this in case others are waiting with this update like me.

  8. I expected some job interview meme[1][2] but I did not know this one and it looks like a real story too! Thanks for sharing, that was a fun read.

  9. > To restore decorum and professionalism to the Department’s written work products…

    Who defines decorum and professionalism? Because I’d say this change is anything but.

    Then again, this is very partisan and so subjective. Still, I’m not a fan of a government pushing certain esthetics with such a BS justification.

  10. While I like the positives of that (easier to catch some criminals), I fear the abuse potential and the negatives overall way more.
  11. What is this referencing?

    I found a song called “Bernie smells a rat”[1], is that it or is it something different?

    Edit: apparently there was a line in The Incredibles, a character Bernie Kropp shouts: “Don’t ‘Bernie’ me! This little rat is guilty!”.

  12. Here is a comparison of the original vs the remaster: https://youtube.com/watch?v=KZ9Ac4WVW6Q&t=100s in case anyone else is interested too.
  13. > will most likely not make me renew my subscription for the new year. Given the price, it will be probably

    Will the author find the time and energy to actually cancel the subscription? The fact that he wrote the blog post and still haven’t cancelled makes me wonder.

  14. I'm fine with the quick start steps and I prefer CLI to GUI anyway. But if I try it and find it too complex, I now know what to try instead - thanks.

    I'm still curious whether this would run on a MacBook and how long would it take to generate an image. What machine are you using?

  15. As an AI outsider with a recent 24GB macbook, can I follow the quick start[1] steps from the repo and expect decent results? How much time would it take to generate a single medium quality image?

  16. Please write what you mean instead of making veiled implications. What is the point of beating around the bush here?

    It's not clear to me what you mean either, especially since female models are overwhelmingly more popular in general[1].
