Agreed. A bookshelf is great, and bookmarks are great. Cognitive load of using a tablet to load and flip through pages? Not so great

the cursor 20$ a month plan has been working great for me. You can use most models, and unlimited use of composer 2, which is surprisingly good

It's a volatile space.

Cursor was just acquired by SpaceX, so let's see what happens.

Wait what

Front page right now.

Youtube's the only social media left where subscribing to a channel actually means something

Is it? I've heard YouTubers make snide comments about subscribing "as if that has any bearing on whether you see my videos", implying that it has minimal impact on the algo.

Many YouTubers claim that some of their subscribers do not get notified when they release new videos (the "hit the bell icon" portion). They've also been claims of users being silently unsubscribed from channels. That is probably what they're referring to in your paraphrased quote.

Because it would be shocking to me if there were Youtubers who truly believed that having (or not having) new subscribers had no impact on the algorithm.

My understanding is that the percentage of viewers that are actually coming from subscriptions has gone down significantly. The recommendations drive everything, and they don't really care if you're subscribed for what videos they offer.

That makes sense -- yeah, that if you go to the Subscribed page, you still see all that content, but the algorithm is de-prioritizing subscribed channels in the recommended feed.

Well there's a dedicated subscriptions page which is nice.

On desktop, the homepage also has subscriptions on the side, with an indicator that someone has a new video.

Yeah, I still have to go to it, AND pass the recommended stuff at the top, and maybe shorts too (?), but at least I can see the stuff i want to see.

And it's seemingly the only large platform where you have some control over the 'algorithm' - meaning if I tell it I'm not interested in something, or not to show me content from a creator, it actually works. On Facebook or Instagram the "not interested" button doesn't seem to do anything and it takes several clicks and a wait to block an account.

It's a stretch for sure.

I think the point is that it's a tradeoff of civil liberties in exchange for safety.

I think it's an interesting discussion and it's not clear to me what the right answer is.

Given the first amendment in the USA, i think once it's cheap enough everyone will be filming everyone all the time. Just look at how many people have ring doorbells.

The first amendment?? Is surveillance speech now? Lets add it to the list: money is speech, surveillance is speech, protesting is NOT speech. Anything I’m missing?

You have a protected right to photograph or film things that are plainly visible from public spaces, including federal buildings, transportation facilities, and police interactions

charts will become totally meaningless.

Event data will be what matters most. That's how artists actually make their revenue these days anyways.

nobody serious uses langchain. The biggest agent products are coding tools, and I doubt any of them use langchain

Biggest issue is that you need api keys which are extremely expensive. Unusable for normal business.

United recently started announcing at the beginning of flights that using your phone with sound on the speaker is prohibited, as a new official policy.

his point is that it's useful, and there's nothing special about planes that make it important for them not to have internet, compared to any other mode of transportation. If you want to get away from the internet, you could have a dedicated space for that.

Also, nobody forces you to use the internet on a plane...

Yes, but why is he responding to me? I didn't say there was something special about planes and I didn't say someone was forcing me to use internet.

the effect in this example fine though, and not obnoxious like OPs? I don't get it

I'm sure it's coming. I'm in Mexico this week and was surprised to drive by not one but two chinese car dealerships. Looks like almost 10% of cars sold last year were EVs
