They are not PR people, don’t expected that of just normal people having fun. No one is promising “chrome killer coming in six months”.

Thig is that for SerenityOS they want to make everything from scratch, ssh, ssl, libraries, utils, text editor… even the browser. They could have just porr Firefox, but that was not the point. To use it you had to complile whole OS.

But since browser got some attention and sone complex sites (like guthub and twitter) started working in it, to make project more viable they are dropping this constraint for browser. I guess they migt use some gui library, ssl lib, codecs… stuff like that. But, I expect, they will not use others code for rendering engine and js, but continue with implementation from documentation.

While some in this thread say they are racist, homophobic and stuff. Maybe some are maybe just not polished for public speak, do we really think everyone in google is totally clean?

It actually exists and is being developed for the last three yeras. But you have to compile it by youself. Just a way to prevent people from having expectations, but a lot of modern sites are working in it. Some errors, a bit slow, but they have rendering engine, css parser, js implementation and are working closely with w3c - they have found some bugs in the standard since they are implementing it directly.

Great and useful project, I don’t know if it will become real competition to firefox and chrome, but I guess it will get traction. A lot of people want new browser, some of them have money.

It still costs money for hardware and hosting. Scraping web and training AI ain’t cheap.

It is, it has -9 points right now. While unpopular opinion, I agree with it if you like the content.

I use it, but I am trying to move to podcast and other platforms as much as possible.

Thing is you also stop sharing and commenting and engaging with other users. If it wasn’t useful they would pull the plug long ago, nothing technical is preventing them.

Maybe we should stop calling them adblockers.

I am not blocking ads I am blocking spyware and malicious scripts. I wouldn’t have anything against well behaving ads without js.

Also making it illegal is nit necessary, just don’t show me your content and exclude it from search results and we are good.

And it is always a question how they calculated handling of nuclear waste.

There are options, we can use coal and natural gas for on demand power to fill the gaps in renewables, we don’t have to quit all at once. New ideas for energy storage and comming around, some of them might be useful for small towns, others for remote places.

My GeoTIFFs do not agree.

This is just what is visible to users/customers which is just top of the iceberg.

Real use of AI is in every industry and best use case is for jobs that were imposible before.

AI has been paying of for decades, it is used in all industries for appropriate tasks.

Now it is even better we are doing stuff no one thought it could be possible and advancing our work.

Perfect use case is for things that are simple to do but take too much time to be economical for humans (ex. counting products, plants, trees, cars, disease detection…) and using additional data to make better decisions.

Generative AI (for writing text, coding,… ) is of course no where close to being useful, but it can interesting to try. It is just a toy, expensive one, but still a toy.

Mine too! I don’t understand why people don’t like it.

Not to mention it is believable. Yeah, maybe some things are too much but those are tools used to create emotion.

Not the lest that Brenna Odell was my childhood crush.

Yes, the article is not very good. Main players here are google and gihub. My experience with media is that they often don’t publish everything, sometimes because of incompetence sometimes for sponsor money. So we have to use our heads a bit.

Not even mentioning google, not even.asking google what they think of youtube-dl, not even asking MS to comment. Give us at least a question and ‘they said no comment’.

Not really good reporting and we got used to that.

I can not watch the video now but I have read description.

Thing is I see them more as entertainers than IT professionals, so I don’t expect any valid data from them. If not before, it became obvious with the whole Linux for a month fiasco where he complains that it’s Linux’s falult he deleted important packages.

But I get it, youtube is forcing this dramatic, often, high performing videos on all creators. You can see it explained very often by various youtubers.

Of course they care more about quantity, because Algorithm will punish them for not publishing and they will disappear.

No one living from youtube can not be trusted right now, they are all forced to publish often clickbity dramatic videos.

There is some difference between private communication and open source code that smis available to anyone.

Looks to me it is just MS playing hard to get with Google.

No karma, but they want to spread their ideas.

We would still have multiple instances/communities with the same name and intetest.

Because marketing people wanted animatios.

So they can make superconductors, but can not host high quality video somewhere belivable and use tiktok and bilibili?

And subset of C++ they are using is easily understandable, just take a look at some easier part.
