Every action was keyboard first and only got mouse access later. Browsing by keyboard is not the browser's specific goal, but it was a feature from day 1!

Microsoft CEO says up to 30% of the company’s code was written by AI https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/29/microsoft-ceo-says-up-to-3...

The name is an homage to Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, which asks (and maybe answers?) similar questions. How much "like a human" is enough? Do we care in the end?

friendlyfriends uses LLMs that are probably not really human enough to answer these questions, but I'm giving it a shot anyways.

Edit: I'm exploring the idea that social media is not really social. How much different is it to interact with a human intermediated by social media sites than it is to interact with chatbots?

Bangs are great, just shorter again to use tomdn.com: - `!mdn array.map` leads me to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/search?q=array.map, which I have to scan the results and click on. - tomdn.com?array.map leads me to the exact page in the docs. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Javascript/Refe...

I tried to get into finance tracking along these lines (YNAB), and it was a lot of work. I don't care where every penny goes because it became clear that most of my pennies go to the same place every month (housing, utilities, etc.). I just want to spend less money on the every day things I have control over.

I'm trying out a system for that specific purpose over at spendweek.com. I've realized that some people just love to see all the data, which is great. Others of us just want a simple tool to curb bad spending habits.

I would second this for anyone whose goal is to spend less money. I think some people keep track of purchases just to see all spending and may not care about reducing spending. In that case, importing data can save time.

This article also agrees with your suggestion. She suggests it's th that knowing you are going to have to write down your purchase helps you think before automatically spending: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/28/smarter-living/budget-mon...
