Are you effectively building a separate renderer outside of Webkit?

Just curious on your thoughts about how Webkit was architected then, I guess it's not a modular system where you can separate out things like "Localstorage" support?

If anybody was curious, the states that already had this prior to 2020 are:

Maine, Vermont, and Florida

Since 2020: Delaware, Hawaii, Montana, New Hampshire, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and West Virginia now also qualify.

Montana is a bit of a surprise there... so is Oregon for me.

I thought the scientist who worked for cigarettes companies did find a bunch of links but the companies squashed the results. It’s pretty famously known that they knew cigarettes were bad for you decades ago.

I have a very low traffic blog and I just use the nearlyfreespeech to host it. So far it’s been less than $1

Ehhhh, which government? Why would you want to build 200+ separate services for this? Would the US government report to a french citizen? Would we have two separate services from France/US?

I agree public services are great but let governments focus on more critical services.

I will give him credit for launching country-of-origin. I'm really curious if it's been effective at all for users to get signal. I don't use X anymore since Musk bought it but though it was an interesting choice.

I mean a lot of sites do it unfortunately.

Reddit is trying to push to it (if they don't already?), Pinterest does it, unfortunately user-generated content is worth more nowadays for user monetization, ads and preventing AI bot scraping. Can't fault them for it too much.

This article is over-stating the capabilities of mobile apps at least on iOS.

Mobile apps can't run on device startup on iOS. They can't modify or delete device storage outside of your sandbox. Same with Access contacts, call logs, SMS. Contact yes, but you have to give explicit permission and you can't access call logs or SMS.

I just stopped reading this because whoever is writing is overstating their case. Maybe the case is different on Android, but last I saw Android is slowly moving toward the granular permission model that iOS does with their data.

Does the new SpeechAnalyzer API not call Apple Servers? I remember when I was building on the last version, it you wanted real time transcription you needed at least to upload it to Apple Servers for processing.

I've been here! It takes a veryyyyy long time to grow them unfortunately and they're not as durable as they seem though. I don't think they last for centuries...

I just use Rectangle. It's got all the core functionality. https://rectangleapp.com/

I imagine the play here is going be connectors. Can you get slack to avoid integrating with anyone other American ai providers, same with Google suite, etc etc.

I imagine it’s going to be a negative for them but dimensions comparisons would be interesting

I think practically every government will want to put restrictions on private companies building models.

Frankly the EU and the US will practically be less involved and have more pushback from the public in this than China. I think that’s less “China bad” than recognizing that China is a more authoritarian state and has far more proclivity to interfere than western states.

Maybe I’m wrong? What does deep seek say about Tiananmen square in 1989?

Human embryo genetic modification has been effectively taboo if not banned until just recently since WWII and the aftermath of the Holocaust. I think some people in the US are proposing doing it now but I don't think anyone has tried it yet without repercussions.

What does the new Siri do that circumvents the need for a mac? To access Siri you still need one no?

Looks like EA did open source the game (only the first maybe)

https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Red_Alert

This seems to be the most active port saying it works on a Mac/Linux https://github.com/Daft-Freak/CnC_and_Red_Alert

Is there any hope for Red Alert 2?

How far back in time do you need to give though? I imagine it will be limited by the time to think of new problems. Still seems valuable.

the flash models have fallen in size at least between deep seek models. Is there a limit to the shrinking capacity of the models?

Higurashi when they cry does the whole concept of time reset well (2006).

Trigun sequel is coming out this year.

2026 titles have caught on that trend of a really long specific title though.

“The Laid-Off Cheat-Granting Mage Enjoys a Second Lease on Life”

I think anime is a big enough category that every year there’s always at least a few good ones but it’s hard to get good signal to noise. But the whole tiny girl thing is 100% a trend that’s stuck around.

Doesn’t that require them to register an account using the browsers they’ve compromised? If anthropic adds identity verification won’t that cut that down. Maybe it will let them use Gemini inside of chrome

The memory shortage is really for these insane memory requirements for LLMs.

A web browser and the basic mobile app will be fine.

The iPhone 17 Pro has the most RAM and it's only 12GB. Hell the iPhone 16 Pro only had 8 GB. The vast majority of consumer cases don't need it. I doubt Apple and other manufacturers will go beyond that to keep prices down.

I wish it had keyboard shortcuts, it's a bit of a sludge to click through twice.

Got 64,650: 20/19/17/18/12 (the intermediate one was a dumb mistake)

I’m not that old but Partiful and other sites have completely consumed Facebook events for me for personal stuff

My understanding of Singapore work culture though is it's intense and competitive. Yes the housing is cheaper and more accessible but it's the same age to get there (maybe a bit earlier). You aren't "economically secure" earlier in life than in Western countries. I don't know enough Vienna's system to speak for it.

I really hope the next person in charge gives up on business deals and aims for more personal updates. I store all my photos on Dropbox. The fact that they don’t a have a good way to manage it is still painful

Is it free for now? This looks like a huge solve to a problem

I'm curious how much of that will keep occurring though? These underage influencers I assume had a following that existed that they want to manage. But if you can't start one without an agency or an adult running things won't that dampen the amounts of them?

It's not a bandaid because American urban design isn't going to change substantially. I don't see American cities changing their mind on how they build and where they build.
