Enshittification, also known as platform decay,[1] is a way to describe the pattern of decreasing quality of online platforms that act as two-sided markets. The term enshittification was coined by Cory Doctorow in January 2023 in a blog post, later republished as an article in Wired, in which he wrote:

Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die. I call this enshittification, and it is a seemingly inevitable consequence arising from the combination of the ease of changing how a platform allocates value, combined with the nature of a “two sided market,” where a platform sits between buyers and sellers, hold each hostage to the other, raking off an ever-larger share of the value that passes between them.
Next saw it as a significant threat and copied some of their ideas, I believe.
Thanks, I have tried TST and Sideberry.

Not really. The submitted link shows you how to use it ( eg. The rest call).

This one shows you how to set it up in cloudflare.

While the info provided in both is indeed similar.
Sure, but then the logical step would be to charge producers and get them to charge viewers, either directly or via ads. But we all know that will result in the demise of the platform, so that's a no-no for both youtube and producers.

Your subscription money doesn't go to the producers anyway, or only little of it, so the $14/mo is for a large part Google's profit.

Exactly!

The big idea is that usually the `else` will do a nonlocal exit, so we should try to rewrite this in the "flat/early-out style." But then if you're declaring intermediate variables, you end up with duplicate lines:

auto var = op;
if (!var.cond) return my_else;
auto var2 = op2(var);
if (!var2.another_cond) return my_else;
do more stuff;

There's this sort of very regular block in there, of "declare variable, test condition, nonlocal exit".

So the idea was to combine the `if (!var.cond) return my_else` into one expression-level location, so it turns out as

auto var = op? else return my_else;
auto var2 = op2(var)? else return my_else;
<do more stuff>
// Or instead
if (auto var = op?) {
auto var2 = var.op2?;
<do more stuff>
}

Then the question was, what's the best way to get both of those? And it occurred to me what I actually wanted was just a way to branch out of the if entirely, I didn't really care about preserving any values in the alternate case, I just wanted to tear the entire expression/scope down and do something else.
It’s an easy trick: they just check the domains of the email addresses of people who created an account and display the logos of the high profile ones.
Yes, in Internet Explorer you could show and hide all those toolbars as you liked.
So, you could adapt the application to your needs.

I suspect this was meant tongue-in-cheek given that Ruby is known to be a low-performance language and Perl code used to be compared to 'line noise' - think back to the times of analogue phone lines and modems which sometimes introduced noise into the data.

If Meta wanted to, they could've expanded it themselves. They didn't, hence all these other companies.

Between MUI and Next and RTK-query, IMO, React is finally approaching something usable and complete.

Not a React fanboy. I loved Angular v1, in fact. Just hate how minimalist and useless vanilla React was.

Edit: And maybe this is a problem of scale too. At Meta's size or similar, React is just one component and one team that works alongside dozens of others to deliver a working product. But when they open source it, smaller companies and individuals also try to use it but without Meta's scale and resources. And they inevitably find it lacking because they don't have whole teams working on the rest of the problem (like basic routing, which Meta handles in their derivative of PHP, I think?) , so they have to hope someone else (like react router) solved that problem in a drop-in way. That's why Next is so magical for small and medium businesses; they do a lot of that curation and infra building for you, for a reasonable fee.
Thanks for your input!

Right, this would use the LLMs inherent functionality to find the most probable output for the prompt and hence could hide or hallucinate info.

What i am after is a more systematic and reliable approach to 'scrape' the models knowledge, without relying on it's best guess for a broad prompt like 'Compile a concept map of classical mechanics.'

Yeah I sometimes see this sentiment that you don't really need something roughly like sum types and higher-order functions to do things like chaining on them; you just need this one little special-cased keyword that will do 95% of what you want.

I use both Brave and Firefox on mobile. I'm using Brave right now.
Bought both apagard royal and apagard premio. I like the taste much more compared to classic ones, but I can't say I've seen some improvements in my teeth, looks the same as when I used Splat or Sesnsodyne protect&repair.

Also, consider that apagard usually doesn't have compounds that make your teeth less sensible like other toothpaste

Also, fyi- you should not wash your mouth after brushing, just spit the extra paste and wash after ~10-20 mins, this is valid for fluoride variations too

Anyway, just buy a tube (start with premio) and see how it goes

TI took several steps back by ending the OMAP line, but they're still designing chips even though they're not quite on the bleeding edge anymore.

The PRUs are still there for now, but not very well supported. (You do get multiple Cortex R's.) Once the RP1 is fully documented and exploited the PI5 will probably become even more popular for hobbiest IO, but that's in a different market really.

The Jacinto7 line is still pretty popular in some circles and there are some boards around the series. It's a bit of a confusing line though since the same dies are offered in multiple product lines targeted for different markets.

Beaglebone AI64 (TI TDA4VM, 2xA72, 4GB, NVMe, $185) : https://www.beagleboard.org/boards/beaglebone-ai-64

If the SK-AM69 supported transformer models (i.e. llama.cpp) in it's NPU it would probably be perpetually out of stock.

>The ChatGPT conversation has zero value as a source in the abstract.

If your objective is to get only first hand accounts, sure. But like wikipedia it's good as a source to find where to look deeper. I disagree there's zero value there. I often use it to generate a few things I go look at more serious sources for. Surely that's some value when web search's well has been well (heh) poisoned by ads?

>Do you understand why you should not cite wikipedia

If you find the primary source through wikipedia, did wikipedia provide "zero value as a source"? I don't think so. Bad analogy I suppose - I meant like how wikipedia was seen as not trustworthy to use even if you just used it to find the primary sources. I guess I should've said "use as a source" wikipedia not "cite" it.
Can you cite the pop-sci TV show you got that from? You've got it exactly the wrong way around.

Evidence of deadly human-on-human violence mostly starts showing up with the Neolithic period, before that humans didn't go out of their way to kill each other as much. It looks a lot like you need to be settled and amass possessions to give people a good enough reason to kill each other. That's recent behavior as far as our species is concerned.

I don't know anything. That's basically the problem. Based on what OP writes, I'm taking wild guesses at what is really going on, and came to the conclusion that I can't feel comfortable telling them what to do. How do I know I'm not making it worse?

I really really hope OP gets professional help. I happen to know that social workers are a good option when you feel overwhelmed by a multitude of problems and the solution is not obvious.

Sorry again if I worded everything so badly that it came across as if it was dismissive of you/your opinion personally.
Same, too, for sites that say "trusted by students a ${PRESTIGIOUS_INSTITUTIONS}". Overuse of that little advertising trick has absolutely zeroed out whatever value it had.

I think this is holding Euclid's work to a higher standard that didn't exist at that time. I believe you're referring to "Proof-checking Euclid"(2019)[0], in which the authors used computer proof-checking methods to verify the correctness of our proofs of the propositions in Euclid Book I.

Euclid Book I was written 2,300 years ago. I think it's reasonable that some "additional" axioms were occasionally implied. As [0] states, "[that] gap is filled by adding a 'circle–circle' axiom, according to which if circle C has a point inside circle K, and also a point outside circle K, then there is a point lying on both C and K." I'm not sure, but I feel like that might be reasonable to do for a reader of Euclid Book I in 300 B.C.

So is the proof "invalid"? Yeah maybe, according to modern definitions. But I don't think the logic of that part of the proof was actually flawed, just under-presented.

I’d say the real difference is less impulsive behaviour. Rich people aren’t likely to assault you on the street or vandalise your property.
Definitely should've said "use as a source" not "cite". Like you note, wikipedia, and chatgpt for that matter are great not for "i need 100% confidence this is correct" queries but "i want to know where to dig deeper" queries. I wouldn't cite wikipedia itself, but I also wouldn't be shied away from a primary source found from wikipedia. And that to me makes wikipedia as useful if not more useful than the primary source itself, because if I can't find the primary source what good is it? Tree falling in the forrest and all that.
> so that the recipe is truly recursive

Recursion doesn't imply infinite recursion; a recipe doesn't have to invoke itself to be a recursive recipe. Surely a recursive recipe is just a recipe that invokes a recipe.

This is completely normal; see Escoffier. E.g. for Cod Mornay, "Make a roux".

Escoffier's recipes were often just a single paragraph; you were supposed to know how the target tastes and looks.

Making sourdough is arguably infinitely recursive. You can break the recursion by looking up "Make a sourdough starter".
I dreamed of building a website like the type I grew up on in the late 90s and early 2000s. The gamefaqs, mrfixitonlines and casterrealms-type websites for me were at the forefront of making this internet medium to be better than books, voice or anything else for that matter for the transmission of information.

Fast forward 20 years later. I think I've spent close to 300k on the website and team to help with it. I don't even want to think about my own labor costs. These days the google results for my niche are entirely dominated by an ugly purple wordpress blog ran by non-native English speakers that gets hacked every few months with a redirect to porn or russian sites. Their information is frequently wrong. It doesn't hurt their rankings at all. Yoast through it bro. Keep up the great work Google.

A lot of people would corroborate your statistics and observations.

The problem is that there is no "entertainment" category of reader. Just different domains and special interests. Nobody likes accessing the internet with a low signal to noise ratio or fighting cut-and-paste "AI" websites that have been engineered to rank on Google.
One thing I didn’t find adequately reflected in this article is how expensive it is being poor.
If you can’t afford the more expensive, but more durable version of X, where X is something you really need, means that over time you will spend much more on this than you would have if you could have afforded the more durable option.

At one part of my life I could only afford the cheapest pair of shoes for 10€, and since it was the only pair I owned I needed to buy a new pair every few months. Of course, I quickly paid more on shoes than I would have if I’d been able to afford one good pair of shoes.

Cursor's major innovation is in the UX of integrating AI-assisted tooling into your editor.

- Inline chat about code blocks

- Inline instructions on modifying/creating code

- Import of documentation to the local project for better suggestions and referencing

You highlight the code you're interested in and hit CMD+K to have it do modifications for you.

This kills the copy + paste of code from your editor to ChatGPT and back, which beyond being a pain also loses all the context of where the code is in your project and is also a step ahead of Co-Pilot which is more just super intelligent code completion.

In general, I've found a great deal of dev productivity improvements in using it as a coding assistant where I'm still orchestrating and guiding the work and using the AI assistance to very rapidly blow through boilerplate tasks, reformatting things, double checking if I'm doing something right, etc.
