Its better than nothing, but usually only lets you use vim bindings for text editing itself. Compared to neovim, where the entire editor and the plugin ecosystem is fully based on the same keyboard-driven workflow, it's quite lacking. For example, I remember that when using VSCode with its Vim mode plugin, it took quite a bit of configuration to be able to switch to the file tree and navigate it with the keyboard, and it still didn't work that well due to inherent limitations of the software.
Another huge example is Neogit. If you're an Emacs user, you probably use Magit, which Neogit is heavily inspired by, so you'll understand. Having it integrated into your editor and working with the same shortcuts is very nice and can't be replaced by vim emulation mode.
You can usually check the ads.txt file on a website to see which companies are allowed to bid for ad space on there. For example, for dict.cc, the website in question:
The ones labelled "RESELLER" will probably share your data with even more ad companies.
> 90% of our time should be spent thinking
Thinking and typing often happen at the same time. Its much easier for many people to reason about a problem by writing and changing the code, and it's also why LLMs can significantly reduce code understanding even if you read everything they wrote.
But is it comparable to the amount of toxic behavior on 4chan?
Exactly, which is why attaching large UI shifts to that involuntary gesture makes the experience feel very unpredictable
> activating your browser's reading mode
Reading mode is a hack that's only needed because sites aren't already readable. You shouldn't have to activate it to be able to read the content.
In addition, it doesn't always work well if the website didn't test it. On your website, for example, it removes all images from the text.
> Having to click or tap a button requires the user to stop, evaluate whether the title interests them
Purposefully doing things in a way that doesn't let the user decide if they want it is called a dark pattern. Its not far from those checkboxes that try to trick you into accepting marketing newsletters. "We can't give users an option to think if they want our emails! If they don't, why don't they just use their email's spam filtering?"
You may not see it like that yourself, but huge links to your CV, talks and courses are exactly that - an ad that covers half the screen.
You have multiple people telling you the experience is bad, and you asked for why, but when people give you the explanation you argue back. That's fine of course, it's your own site and you can do whatever you like with it without trying to suit anyone. But that doesn't make the reader experience less bad.

Wasn't the digital Euro specifically crippled due to banks lobbying against it to promote Wero instead?
They look awesome. Design I is amazing
The "stock Android camera" (the one in AOSP) is absolutely horrible. You're probably using Google's Pixel camera app.
If your concern is specifically about the censorship, then it's not an issue with Kagi, since Yandex is used as one of many sources (and mainly for images afaik)
This has always been the case with Chinese models. Their web ui is a service provided from China, so they are required to censor it, but not the models themselves.
It is the thing with Telegram
(Not affiliated in any way, I'm sure there are better services out there, this is just the one a friend recommended to me and I haven't researched other options)
I read the code.
I see this as an argument against using them/Chinese models all the time, but I don't get it. I totally understand wanting to keep your data private if you're using an LLM for personal chats. But coding? I'm not working for the military, I'd gladly donate my codebase to Chinese labs if that means they can keep releasing 6-months-behind level models for 100x cheaper.
(I understand why OpenAI doesn't want this and would implement protections. I'm talking about people using this as an argument for why you as an end user shouldn't use those services.)
