Wait, can this format be transformed back to the "normal" format? If so, then it could be kinda viable for some operations... :thinking_emoji:

Only if it can be turned into gray market business: additional layers of proxies and VPNs, and whatever new is invented.

As simple "I care about privacy" need is not a reason to bother with setup for a regular person. So it could work only if it's as easy, as current internet. And for profit businesses provide it.

As for another protocol all together: there are some experiments already, but again, why use those?

I guess in this theoretical "AI makes weapon" scenario one could use the same AI to make defences too?

// Claude, make antiviral nanobots that defend me from 6ft virus. Make no mistakes.

Or when I wanted to write a novel and went into world-building fantasy enciclopedia for two years... I didn't even pass the page 2 of the novel, lol. Now it's all forgotten.

unless they used punch cards

I found that adding "philosophy" descriptions help guide the tooling. No specs, just general vibes what's the point, because we can't make everyone happy and it's not a goal of a good tool (I believe).

Technology, implementation may change, but general point of "why!?" stays.

Isn't markdown table just a bunch of | ?

To be fair, being from a small country can help too. (Hi from Lithuania.) It helps with marketing, because while it's difficult being Worlds Amazon, it's easier and more marketable to be lithuanian version.

Yes, it has downsides too, as economy and people resources work depending on scale - smaller community is going to be smaller - but it's a way to startup and build a base solution, while thinking of something else that may change the rest of the world later.

Of course, yeah, in the end it's just different...

P.S. I'm in same boat technology wise. It's difficult to learn everything, and learn it "on time" :)

Is there a list of these "goverment" sites anywhere?

I have been working on similar project, focusing on lithuanian-only "goverment" sites, but it's not perfectly obvious how to recognise public vs private websites, as at least half of those are managed privatelly, used publically. (Mostly due that was cheaper and/or because lack of requirements and/or other weird situations.)

But yeah, I can confirm that stats are same-ish in Lithuanian web too. I just havent finished gathering data yet, it will take a while.

I personally am not sure what's the point of this, when the graph seems like doesn't give any real information + doesn't even work on mobile (no hover), but congrats on finishing up the series!

Dumping every sentence saves up tokens in human mind ;-)

Dunno, I have been in IKEA and saw 50 types of drawer handles, for example :)

(Same for car interior design, or things like even doors that some swivels on one axis, some split on multiple, some slide.)

I don't think that us humans really actually like/want standarts. We think we do, but there are 100+1+1 standart from which to choose. So Claude becoming "standart" iš just +1 standart to choose from. Unique is fun!

But friction can be good, because it makes your offer stand out.

Like haggling in the local market, or trying to "catch" that successful/awesome person that has limited availability.

Friction makes stuff feel valuable. Of course, not absurdly confusing, but just a bit.

Yeah, even from intro we see that it has WAY too many words + repeats itself. Simptom of LLM content.

Not in Lithuania. While it's not the No1 or 2,3 platform for job advertisements, it's still very popular, especially for IT and management jobs.

So this probably depends on the country.

Why publish on the web, if it's strictly personal and you don't wish to hear responses?

I can understand "I don't need advice, duck you" worldview, but strict "you only consume, never think or respond" is a bit weird...

Of course, our comments here are a bit meta on this topic.

Note: after re-reading I may have just misunderstood sarcasm, lol. Oopsie. Ah well.

For sure higher quality social network than Facebook. I personally like it. (Note that I follow only lithuanian posts. It may be our local language specifics.)

We won't know until we try it.

This law in worst case doesn't cause any problems and in best case solve problems. So win-win.

Also MacOS completely crashes if you have ethernet cable connected and decide to also turn on the WiFi. No "hey, choose whatever you wish" or "hey, disconnect from ethernet first" errors, just complete crash to reboot, lol.

Maybe because it would be weird if your excel or calculator decided to do something unexpected, and also we try to make a tool that doesn't destroy the world once it gets smarter than us.

From hardware perspective MacOS is way worse, because you can't even use it on whatever hardware you wish it to run on. (While windows work on a lot of stuff and Linux can run even on microwave and a toaster if needed.)

:V

https://dago.lt/ - currently a portfolio, maybe something more in future.

I see it similar to writing books. Everyone can write it (dictating to someone else is also writing), it can be good for person (putting ideas in understandable way, sharing inner ideas). Buuuut not everyone wants to do it.

I guess fetishising books and personal blogs has a limit.

And lithuanian list is here: https://www.nksc.lt/vasaris.html (in lithuanian). Mostly phishing sites, but includes fun piracy portals too.

Content piracy specific, mostly movies, blocked by public broadcaster orders: https://www.nksc.lt/doc/vasaris/siena-lrtk.txt, https://www.nksc.lt/doc/vasaris/siena-lrtk-2.txt, https://www.nksc.lt/doc/vasaris/siena-lrtk-3.txt

Depends on how deeply is the ad hidden. If the LLM-engine is using some deep level manipulations over a long period I'm not sure if blocking that ad would be possible.

What I forsee is a future of "local" AI engines. I think Apple is waiting for its moment for when people will ask for private-offline AI tools + a lot of smaller companies will follow. It won't be a huge success, but it will be popular in HN and in tech savvy crowd.

Ofc, it's only a personal prediction.

Yeah! It's unique, has a personal charm and also everything seems to fit together nicely. Fun to discover such pages, reminds me of the old days, haha!

It's just another business/service niche that is solved until the current Big Provider becomes Evil or goes under.

Similar to "made for everyone" social networks and video upload platforms.

But there are niches that are trip planning + there are no one solving the pain! For example Geocaching. I always dreamed about an easy way to plan Geocaching routes to travel and find interesting caches on the way. Currently you gotta filter them out and then eyeball the map what seems to be nearby, despite there, maybe, not being any real roads there, or the cache is probably maybe actually lost or has to be accessed at specific time of day.

So... No one wants apps that are already solved + boring.

Reminds me of something from Warhammer 40k universe. Next someone is going to put ChatGPT helper inside a human skull, probably :V

Kinda like paper newspapers. In some ways it's "not optimal", but in many ways it's irreplaceable.

By this point we can also discuss what is trully original and what if creative work is just "stealing" ideas that other people "created" before.

(I don't have an answer, just wondering.)
