I envision the app on the phone that implements AI secretary and answers unknown phone numbers on my behalf, and calms down calling party with various measures, with sort of captcha of various degree of offense. This will hold them off until they find a workaround.


The Pixel 8 does this, it's called "Call Screen" and since getting it I never receive unscreened calls from outside my contact list. It's been very nice to have.


I have such an app. It's called RoboBlocker. I used to use a different app called RoboKiller, but recently switched. Both work basically the same way. They automatically block known spammers/scammers and screen the rest.


Is there any example project utilizing one of the available WASM runtimes that could load, instantiate and run WASM module on android in near native speed, not interpreted (not web browsers)?

Recently I investigated few WASM runtimes and honestly could not manage achieving this task. Only suggestion I got from people is load bunch of packages using termux package manager and operate in shell environment on Android to compile and run example projects.

I would appreciate link to some project that results in APK which (as part of its work) calls WASM function in non-interpeted mode on android (arm/x86).


often, chatgpt translates better.


That, and you can ask it to translate literally or colloquially, to summarize or explain about acronyms, cultural references, names, code, syntax, diagrams, graphics, or anything else.

GP: If you're going to play a curmudgeon, at least get some first hand experience with what you choose to complain about, otherwise your curmudgeoning isn't very effective, and you complain about things that aren't actually problems, and miss out on complaining about real problems.

I love to hate and complain about Unix and X-Windows and C++ and GCS, but that's because I've used them, not because I succeeded in avoiding them.


cause: Edge browser is started when Windows boots up, it sits there started but invisible, first window open is fast. It adds up to your windows start time and memory consumption.

solution: start firefox during windows startup, too.

https://support.mozilla.org/gl/questions/1085268

however to start it invisible and behave like Edge, it may take additional tweaks. of course, it costs extra startup time and memory. Also, you can switch off Edge boot-time startup, if you want.


so what is the state of mozilla?


completely captured by the professional management class


This. It was only a matter of time.


You will not find the real answer on Mozilla's website.


Extracting the last dollars available before Firefox becomes legacy like Netscape.


been there. If you block something, they downgrade to something even worse, each bloody time.


It happened to me to be part of a project where design was made by a young female friend of mine. After reviewing it (lots of gray semitones, including dark gray text on black, and subtle difference between active and not active elements), I asked her "but..... why?". She honestly answered that she perfectly differentiates one from another. Later I learned that grown men have drastically different color perception than younger women.


now get some footage of their communications, and let's finally put that to some unsupervised learning algorithm so it distills some patterns in their audio/visual communication and then builds parrot2vec. Then you perform clusterisation analysis, and obtain some characteristic patterns. At least we'll have the vocabulary size with some precision. The vocabulary of bored domestic animal, therefore reduced to some degree..


I'm not sure if you mean this as a joke or not because this actually sounds plausible; I'm sure we'll see AI tools used to try and learn communicating with animals.


Seems like same principles used in https://github.com/yyzybb537/libgo

Using libgo for 3 year, still cool. Most important: you add it, add some convenience methods on top of it, and forget about it.


stopped using reddit after they introduced new design. My browser struggles scrolling it smoothly (in most compressed mode). Too complex DOM they put there. Lack of programming skills.


The tech aspect is problematic but to me it shows they don't understand what made reddit special. It's was that borked website that made people have nice convos and spaces(if you don't look at r/donald etc). The programming/UX was almost irrelevant, it was the social spirit behind that made it interesting.


It’s especially ironic given that Reddit owed much of its early popularity to the Digg exodus after a similarly myopic redesign. Nothing changes.


oh I forgot that part. It might a long chain of second system effect..

who's the new reddit ? :)
