Let it "build power plant" and we are on track with "Paperclip maximizer" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumental_convergence#Paper...

AI race to the bottom is a debt game now. Once the party is over somebody will have to pay the bill.

Watch out, it may break accessibility of your service. If somebody fills these fields I would add extra verification e.g. accessible CAPTCHA.

Good luck with any `npm audit` in a pipeline. Sometimes you have to pull the latest release because the previous one had a critical vulnerability.

Not really, AI slop flood is also some kind of end of World. It gets harder and harder to hoard pre-2020 content.

Plus according to recent research being twins with same DNA doesn't mean they have same body parameters today, especially as one experienced traumatic event in juvenile age. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epigenetics

Then keep Google crapphone for banking purposes in your drawer, like auth scratch code cards in the past. I don't get that idea of carrying device with bank access in your pocket constantly. Moreover, at least in EU, there is more and more banks which publish their apps in non Google app stores too.

They give no shit about safety. The real goal is to break NewPipe or YT Vanced and ads/subscription revenue. Google is advertising company foremost.

Turn it around - employ "copilot-boss" for your business and stay a grey eminence.

Perhaps a lot of indie devs hate executive and managerial stuff, then what if AEO could lead the business execution while being fed with some minimal project outcome objectives from the technicaly focused dev.

YT ads are intrusive like with TV. You can't skip most them easily anymore like you can scroll and skip sponsored Google Search results.

I would say Sqlite is closer, you find it on every phone, browser, server. I bet Sqlite files will be still readable in 2100. And I love Postgres.

They can much more than you can imagine. I bet you have installed at least one 3-rd party app with Facebook SDK bundled in and profiling you. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44763949
