Every single Open Banking implementation I know also requires everyone to go through a useless certified middleman (eg. Plaid, GoCardless, ...) instead of letting people use the APIs directly

For one, GrapheneOS is open source, unlike EncroChat which was a shady proprietary app distributed on shady modified smartphones.

GrapheneOS also doesn't have any custom messengers or other services which could potentially be monitored. It's very easy to check where your phone is sending requests, and if Graphene was secretly MITMing all of your traffic it would be discovered within days.

Virtue ethics, Deontology and Consequentialism are the "big three".

A very TLDR version is:

- Virtue ethics: instead of judging actions as good and bad, you should strive to become a good person (as defined by some specific set of virtues, like kindness, honesty, etc).

- Deontology: actions should be judged by a set of some fixed moral rules, for example "lying is always bad", even if you had good intentions.

- Consequentialism: actions should be judged by their consequences, for example by how much total happiness they create (utilitarianism). Doing something bad if it would make life of many people better is ethical, because the created happiness is more than the created harm.

In reality of course there are many other branches of them and the distinction is often not as obvious, and your personal views are probably somewhere in between. https://plato.stanford.edu is an amazing resource if you want more in depth explanation of philosophical theories.

But the discussion is about AI-generated text, not the website. It's totally possible to AI generate a website design and then write the text on it yourself.

> where their only or main job during those days is writing the essay?

Writing 850 words shouldn't take you two months even if you only have 10 minutes a day to spend on it. The discussion is about the short description on the product's website, not the product/code itself.

Are you also one of those people who think AES is backdoored because the NSA recommends it?

They could've written text in Mandarin and used an LLM (or any other translation tool) to translate it to English, which wouldn't have introduced the LLM writing style.

They didn't, so the reason isn't that English isn't their first language, it's that they didn't want to spend time writing text. In which case I don't understand how this is different from a native English speaker doing the same thing.

People manage to write 500 word essays in school in a few days just fine, but writing a website landing page suddenly takes two months?

According to wordcounter.net, this landing page has 850 words. Most of that is just LLM fluff that could easily be removed, but even if you want to keep the original size, to spend two months on this you have to be writing less than 15 words a day.

> Consider English might not be the author's first language

This is clearly LLM-written text, not something that the author asked an LLM to translate from a different language. Not sure how the author's first language is relevant.

Note that most of the downtime in that graph comes from Github Actions, which simply didn't exist before the Microsoft acquisition.

The downtime also starts happening in 2020, which is a while after the acquisition. 2020 was the year many people started learning to code while being stuck at home.

> OK so then use the additional revenue to add more resources and employees?

What revenue? I'd assume the people pushing thousands of AI-generated commits are not the people paying for GitHub Enterprise.

Its like when you write a school essay and look up every second word in a thesaurus thinking it makes the essay better

Where do you live where people bike a lot and yet bike theft isn't common?

> Only seems worth it if you already have an extremely nice bike

How nice should one's bike be that you'd rather turn it into a mediocre ebike for the price of buying a good ebike?

Good luck trying to get the cookie laws enforced in any way. The Dutch DPA, for example, only lets you submit a GDPR complaint and get a response on things that directly relate to your own data. Otherwise, you can only submit a "tip-off" that they'll "review" but won't respond to.

GDPR/ePD also requires "reject all" to be a single button, and asking the user to click a billion separate "reject" toggles is against the law, but many sites don't care.

> There should be some kind of moratorium on new accounts.

OC was registered in 2016 though? What do new accounts have to do with this?

You can do that in Pi!

> Extensions can intercept and customize both compaction and branch summarization

https://pi.dev/docs/latest/compaction

Just make an extension (or ask Pi to write an extension for itself) that intercepts compaction and leaves only what you want, or rewrites it in any other way. Should be just a few lines.

I have user Dart for small personal projects and it's a great language. Somewhat similar to Kotlin, but IMO a bit nicer. Unfortunately the ecosystem is not as developed outside of Flutter as with more popular languages, but it very much exists and pretty nice to use.

> It seems that a lot of vibe coders forget

So do many non-vibe coders, somehow. I dont understand why someone would make a website without mobile support in 2026, when phones are the primary device for a lot of people.

Being able to collapse the left sidebar would go a long way to improve mobile experience. Currently it's unusable on mobile.

> Lastest OpenCV 5 release notes also had a lot of LLMisms.

Yeah, that really made me triple-check if I visited a fake SEO spam website instead of the official OpenCV one. The fact that their blog looks exactly the same every single low-effort AI content farm doesn't help either.

> I'm surprised these companies re-use the same encryption key across models

I assume switching the model in the middle of a conversation is intended behavior (very useful in coding agents, for example)

Have you tried Kagi Proofread?

What dose are you using? Most OTC melatonin supplements are sold in a 3 or 5mg dose, while the correct one is ~0.3mg or even lower for some people. High dose may be related to the fogginess.

Chat Control 1.0 is a permanent extension of a temporary law that already existed a year ago, allowing the companies to scan your messages if they want to. Nothing changed since then.

> if you know anything about a search

I doubt people running those agents know much about stuff

I used Byesu and now use a6api. Byesu is a bit more expensive, but a6api is a marketplace so has a higher risk of fake models.

> That's not a liberal education. That's religious brainwashing.

No it's not. It's theology. A text that influenced millions of lifes and deaths can be studied in great detail without any brainwashing.

(To be fair, it can also be brainwashing! But from the blog post it seemed like the course was more about language and culture than about God.)

How so? The code and reasoning patterns certainly match, so does the intelligence level. I probably wouldn't know if they're secretly serving Luna instead of Sol, but it's definitely an OpenAI model.
