For those who just can't shake their Wordle habit:
32 times the Wordle and none of the NYT enshittification
While browsing the references of the paper, I found such a perfect evisceration of GenAI.
We have confused what we can write down with what we usefully know and compounded the error by supposing that because computers can help us write down more they can obviously help us know more.
The marks are on the knowledge worker - Kidd, Alison
That's from 1994 folks, they were talking about the wonder of relational databases.

Decent functionality, and it didn't get flagged most of the time I used it.
can recommend YTDLnis, as others have. If web-based is important to you, cobalt dot tools seems great and trustworthy.
The pivot-to-ai writeup is out, they did seed! I assume it's documented then.
Multinational corporations can act ethically after all.
Did they seed at least?
Not my place to tell you what to post, but I would have just made a link post to your blog. I found it more pleasant to read, and gave me an incentive to poke through your backlog. Entertaining stuff!
Less meta: you just prompted me to actually remember when my Internet journey actually began. Must have been early to mid oughts, mostly playing flash games on lego.com . I remember an elementary school buddy came over one day and helped me create the Email I'd use for 15 years, and introduced me to some regional forum that went offline many years ago.
Tech really can't see begging for more money from VC's as nothing short of a revolution, rolls eyes.
Fits a pattern I've seen before. Kinda critical of OpenAI and not buying their PR wholesale, but also accepting the framing that AI is some kind of critical foundational tech instead of another shitty magic trick.
SmartTV is still a missing link for me too. A Kodi RaspberryPi hooked up via HDMI seems viable.
I wish I could just flash the firmware with a Linux and reinstall the Apps I need, but the whole ecosystem seems way too intransparent, and I'm not a passionate hardware hacker.
I always thought you could do interesting stuff with genAI, especiall when it goes into mangled, uncanny-valley territory. Though I can only think of examples for visual generators, like this album cover or the AI Pizza commercial.
The only text-based example that comes to mind is I forced a Bot to write this Book and that's just a guy imitating LLM writing style. (Hillarious though!)
