My theory is that Gemini 3.8 Flash was supposed to be Gemini Pro, but by the time it was ready for release, Google was embarrassed at how far behind their "pro" model was, so they just named it Flash. It's a good model, but don't let the name trick you.

I'd agree if it wasn't so much faster than ~all the other models. Maybe they nerfed reasoning to get that speed.

Cursor hasn’t had unlimited auto for nearly a year now (although usage is generous).

I assume they mean how easy Plex makes it to share content across the internet. I setup a server, you download a client. No port forwarding, VPN shenanigans, etc

yes I agree, it does need some tech literacy to setup properly.

It’s not about tech literacy to setup, it’s about sharing my content with friends and family - there is no easy way to do it, even if everybody is tech savvy it’s still high friction.

The dream would be: anybody with a jellyfin install can add your library to theirs, anybody with the jellyfin client can be invited to browse your library.

I do this with friends and family. I'm not sure whether my solution is considered high friction. I gave them a router with openwrt installed, and a wireguard tunnel I set up, with a route to my jellyfin server. So they can point their jellyfin app on their TV to my server.

I have to say if Jellyfin could nail the library sharing then they would definitely be a much bigger alternative to Plex users on the fence imho

Any illegitimate email collection service already knows to strip out email subaddresses.

If you’re trying to avoid email spam, there’s not much difference in giving someone [email protected] versus just [email protected].

You could just use [email protected] for the no-alias version. So myname+foo@ works and my.name@ works but myname@ goes directly to the trash.

That can also be normalized.

The normalised version is what gets redirected to trash, according to GP's proposal. Legitimate senders who do not normalise have their mail delivered to the inbox.

Yea, gotta take all dots out on the username portion of Gmail address

In which case the Gmail user knows to mark mail without any dots in the address as spam.

That's the version that goes directly to the trash.

I did a hackathon many years ago (before LLMs) where I spent a serious amount of effort training a conventional machine learning algorithm and integrating it into a react native app. I had a genuinely impressive team to make this possible given it was 2016.

The winning team bought a bootstrap theme for $35 and made a landing page for a nonexistent app.

That doesn’t matter when you have the average. Even if you are somehow able to get 10000tok/s during off peak times, by virtue of how averages work, you’re still only getting 52M tokens per month (as calculated above).

While tone often portrays poorly over text, I think this is an example where the sarcasm is very overt. I don’t think anyone would think the comment is serious.

How many times will people fall for this? Public voting is a false sense of democracy, when every ballot looks like, “Do you want us to lower taxes, cure cancer, and [in small text] install surveillance at every intersection?”

The pricing doesn’t render properly on mobile. The responsive design puts what is presumably a table into a vertical stack, which means I have no idea which price corresponds to which feature.

Ugh, I’ve been wanting this forever.

I DON’T want Uber Eats to tell me I should order pizza tonight.

I do want to know when the delivery driver is outside.

This 100%. Hell, give me a way to write code to filter notifications and I'll do it myself.

I get so frustrated by apps that I need notifications on for but I don't want marketing BS, unfortunately there is no middle ground.

On top of filtering Apple should force app developers to segment their push notifications and allow users to block different types. This would be completely in line with Apple's _stated_ priorities and a great thing to advertise (I can imagine the commercials for it already).

I think you can do this on Android (or at least you used to be able to with Tasker when rooted, since it has [used to have] the ability to read notifications and dismiss notifications)

Some of the Uber competitors use Live Activities for when the delivery driver is on the way/outside, so you can bin their other notifications into a Notification Summary.

I really appreciate Notification Summaries and the distinction of Live Activities and "Time Sensitive" notifications as "can break out of summaries". Unfortunately each app has to opt in to using these other two things for their non-promotional stuff, and also can lie and mark their promotional stuff as "Time Sensitive" (I'm looking at you LinkedIn, which for me is now banned from all notifications forever, you misused them too much and I don't need you).

Yeah I turned off all uber app notifications. It's pretty annoying as now I don't know when the food has come or when the driver is here, but the amount of ads I will tolerate is exactly zero.

Uber is blatantly abusing push notifications for marketing, it is so bad ... for smaller apps this would be an App Store ToS violation and grounds for removal. The double standard with larger apps is very upsetting.
