4·6 days agocame here to post the same but since you already did i had to fix the image:
262·6 days agoIt is a real shame that people think that this is vibecoded
we can’t see your source code but the copy on your transparency page sounds like LLM voice:
- “Your feed is people and communities, not advertising.”
- “This is a promise we keep in good faith, not a technical guarantee.”
- “Analytics let people see how their posts, profiles and communities are doing. This is everything they record, and nothing else.”
- “Eight promises:” […]
If you say you wrote some of the code by hand, cool, i don’t doubt it. But it’s still giving slop.
Also, charging money for a “plus” account on a centralized closed-source activitypub implementation is…
Lastly, it’s difficult to reconcile these two statements:
as a software engineer with over 15 years of experience

the core is closed for anti-abuse reasons

everyday users who can afford a $1600 phone, that is 🙄

2·17 days agoThere are two problems:
- the reddit frontend (redlib) you’re using is getting rate-limited by reddit. the page which it is trying and failing to parse as JSON contains HTML saying “Reddit rate limit exceeded. Try refreshing in a few seconds.Rate limit will reset in: 489”. So, it might work sometimes eventually but probably not for long. You should find another (less popular) instance to use instead.
- the redlib backend is sending this error as HTML even though the url says
raw_json=1, which is why you can’t see the actual error.
It actually was their slogan back then
which period “back then” are you referring to? 1976 maybe? the Apple I was affordable (at just $666.66 😄) compared to other kits at the time, but the Apple II (1977) cost more than twice what a TRS-80 did and afaik since then Apple has always positioned itself as a premium brand.
i don’t recall them ever having a comparative-price-related marketing slogan or campaign, but maybe i’m forgetting something?
In my native language it’s really easy: for example, the difference between “No, I’ll do it” and “I won’t do it” is just a comma
Can you elaborate on that? 🤔
1·26 days agoHello blatant propagandist trying to retcon the fact that there literally was no primary for democrats?
Her name was on the ballot I cast, so I dunno what your deal is
Do you mean because you wrote it in instead of voting for Biden? 🤔
Otherwise you’re misremembering; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Democratic_Party_presidential_primaries

2·1 month agoOn href, I think all 3: style.css, /style.css, ./style.css point to the same place.
no, they do not. (click for details)
those three do not always resolve to the same thing: the first and last are relative, while the second is absolute.
from a file at
http://example.com/index.html, all three would resolve tohttp://example.com/style.css.But from a file at
http://example.com/foo/index.htmlthehref="style.css"andhref="./style.css"will both resolve tohttp://example.com/foo/style.csswhilehref="/style.css"will continue to resolve to the file at the root (http://example.com/style.css).
Okay but which parts are edited and which are real?
i don’t know which if any parts of the image are real; a quick search shows it’s a popular new meme format where the part that varies is the offending prompt.
Anthropic banning people for “abusive or cruel behavior” to “mitigate risks to model welfare” is apparently a real thing, though.
11·1 month agothis BBC article “Trump’s AI rebrand causes ‘unprecedented’ demand for Slovenian website names” notes that it was updated after publishing to stop implying that domain squatting is an illegitimate business 🤡
fyi, the news story which this meme is premised on turned out to be a hoax.
none of the claims that there was a measurable drop in inauthentic social media activity as a result of the strikes on yandex datacenters held up when i tried to verify them. one of the graphs supposedly demonstrating it was obviously AI-generated and had dates in the future, while another was a cloudflare graph showing a drop in bot traffic but the bot there was solely yandex’s search engine web crawler traffic.
it’s remarkable how many people continue to believe it.
