WordPress developers are very hive minded. Marketing this new cleanroom CMS as a successor to WordPress is a brilliant move.

If I can have my AI engine of choice design up a new site, and emdash has the MCP engine to control the CMS side, deploying a website just became even simpler than the various drag and drop wordpress page editors.

Oddly enough, the feed and filter system being discussed also allows for an equally echo-y right wing experience, if you desire that.

The algorithm might allow for it, but bluesky moderation won't.

Try saying there are 2 genders and that men shouldn't play in women's sports.

All I want it to do is find gas stations ahead of me in the direction I'm travelling.

There are zero cases where I want to turn around and backtrack my path unless there are no other options.

Repeat for "fast food ahead of me", "starbucks ahead of me", etc.

The new Gemini voice integration with Android Auto is terrible.

It knows less than the old voice assistant, is much more verbose and can't read/remember preferences for apps like spotify for music and google maps for maps.

A truly awful experience.

Cuba is bullied because the Cuban community in Miami is numerous and have a loud opinion to doing so. Florida is generally quite important in winning a presidential election.

Amazon has been making a lot of amateur mistakes too in recent months. I expect it will get worse before it gets better.

I disagree completely with the premise. Prices don't necessarily have to increase. We have yet to reach maturity of chips optimized for inference, in addition to the regular old factor of computing work per dollar going up over time. Moore's law might be "slowing down" but we aren't at the end of the road yet. Keeping today's features running will cost less to deliver in both infrastructure and electricity in the future.

What will more likely happen is that features and functionality will keep expanding to use more processing power. But where is the limit? I say that comes when we can render at near-realtime 8k/240hz a video (or video game if you prefer) with procedurally generated world, characters, and storyline based on the users input via whatever real-world data, UI or sensors you want to use. This might even be possible now if you are a billionaire with access to million dollar server farms. Probably my imagination isn't broad enough in estimating the limit of "personal computing" but additional computing power beyond that seems pointless for any one individual.

In any case the price of an ai product will depend on the features offered and how much hardware is needed. Probably you can run a 500 billion parameter LLM on a smart watch in 2055 but if you want that power today it seems to cost about $20 a month. I doubt anyone will try to ever charge more for today's $20 featureset. The price of this stuff will absolutely decrease, the only unknown is how companies will roll out new functionality and how specific future features fit into the pricing tiers over time.

It's somewhat understandable though. The $5 contributors waited this long, they can wait a little longer for things to be fixed. If that is possible. Ultimately though they may need to verify identity or at least a domestic phone number within the user's region, which may not be what the users were looking for.

Your greybeard has such a crust that the crustie bits have their own wizard beards.

Google maps loves to recommend gas stations and restaurants that I've already passed.

I want the NEXT gas station along my route, not something 3 miles behind me.

Currently a voice prompt of "gas stations ahead of me" isn't understood, even with an active route running.

You mean the case where the mother abandoned the child and the government decided to keep the family together with the father?

Law enforcement could have put the child in foster care and you'd be posting crocodile tears about family separation.

Deporting the family unit is the solution to all of these problems.

Not bringing your family across the border illegally is also a wise choice.

And that cuts both ways. The girl's school that the US bombed used to be part of a military base, but some years ago was separated and walked off. It should have been taken off the target list but with thousands of targets in the database nobody is really checking each one for updates.

This is the worst tech bubble I've experienced. Not only is it driving up prices for consumer goods now, but data centers these days have such integrated and specialized stuff that hobbyists won't be able to make much use of it when it goes to auction. The chances of picking up some 4U servers at a decent price when the bubble pops are not good due to the data centers the hyperscalers are building not using much of them. Plus, the limited number of jobs and extensive working from home culture now means that aeron chairs won't be dumped onto your local buy/sell/swap place either. I just want cheap tulips but they shan't be had. Worst bubble ever.

Ontario Power leads the Americas as far as running nuclear power efficiently and economically. I would even put them above Dominion, which is highly professional themselves.

The process is broken. I just voted in the Texas primary, which is the only election that matters here. And the Republican primary is the only primary that matters, so I vote in that regardless of my personal alignment. It ran over 100 races. Yes really. For the important races, there were a handful of choices, which I researched in advanced. Invariably the incumbent was polling overwhelmingly, most of the challengers were even more extreme, and maybe one with no hope of success seemed like a reasonable person. Then there were dozens and dozens of unopposed judges (why do we vote judges anyway?). It's completely rigged from before the start. The only reasonable nonbinding resolution was for term limits, which I expect leadership will promptly ignore.
