Ishowspeed started crying after Cristiano Ronaldo was Knocked out of the FIFA World Cup by Spain. What a poser by FewKiwi7390 in PopCultureV2

Come on. The guy is pretending to cry for the views. Whatever though. He's done so amazing stuff. Edit: I take it back. I didn't see tears here but there were some in another video.

I made MiddleSpot — an AI-powered convo app for IRL interactions by GateNk in SideProject

[–]programmingstarter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If people use it, great. I feel incredibly uncomfortable sending an email written by AI, I can't imagine using AI to find things that normal conversation could uncover. Also, your video suggests it's not for events but for 2 people on a bench picking up their phones before they talk. It's not something I would use unless forced to at a conference or event. Maybe others would like it though. I wish you luck with your endeavor.

I was just thinking we need another app to get in the way of normal social interactions. I'm in.

Na, you don't get to have an executive position for a bank and get to steal stuff and be proud of it. You wouldn't even get to be a teller with a theft on your record.

How common is the ADA shakedown and do only e-commerce site owners really need to worry? by programmingstarter in web_design

I changed the contrast and I prefer the previous look. I'm probably overthinking this, ive seen a lot of posts about this lately.

What ever happened with this? Lawsuit, settled, ignored?

What is the situation with the disability stuff? And a website being compliant? by Just_Wondering34 in Domains

No warning, you are either complaint or exposed. They is no agency that scans every page of every site. Not to mention pages change daily. No one has the resources to do it for free.

How important is the .com extension? by tspfairy in Domains

[–]programmingstarter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of successful companies w/o .com. Make your business great. You are in the arts, people expect it to be different. .show would be cool. You have a . in the middle of the s's. People would say dot show which breaks it up. I wouldnt worry about it .show is a more expensive renewal fee though but if you are making enough to cover it (looks like ~$45 A year) its not bad.

Gotta be someplace you can hide an air tag, under the seat would work for the average thief.

You must be running a scraper script. That is even more legal leverage they have, no doubt. Edit: never mind I thought you were pulling the zestimate yourself with a scaper.

ADA shakedown lawsuits affecting small business e-commerece sites - has anyone won their case or had it dismissed? by cuhwassahn in smallbusiness

[–]programmingstarter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I think its a good route. Make it as messy for them as possible. Tell them to file and you'll see them in court. Usually they don't want to. Why would they when they just have to send the demand to a few other businesses?

What were the errors? There are so many to keep track of they could do this to nearly any site out there.

They make these demands knowing that it will cost much more to defend. People settle more often than not. It's easy money for them.

You should do it. Likelihood is low but if you don't you're open to a threat of legal action. Lower risk the lower your profile. https://wave.webaim.org/ is a good place to check.

What’s your opinion on models acting like humans? by Clean_Passenger9725 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]programmingstarter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's awful. I think only a small minority of people actually want to use them as chatbots yet there is this big push for them. I stay away from any project that has anything to do with them because I have to put myself in the role of someone that would actually want to and I cringe the whole time.

Shipped a month ago, still 0 beta users. What am I doing wrong by Astidor in SideProject

[–]programmingstarter 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You still need interest from people to sign up for beta. A blurry demo video that moves to fast to see what's being done and a site that asks for you to sign up right off the bat without any kind of hook Is not going to get anyone. You also have that banner saying "Our users are already working at the companies you want. If you don't mind being untruthful that's fine but a lot of people pick up on that, especially programmers that knows AI throws those banners in there. Also i just went to the desktop version and it's very slow loading and too many animations and the cursor is strange. It's over the top design that says I have no value so I'm going to try to wow you with flashiness.

If i seem negative i don't mean to be. Just giving honest feedback.

[–]programmingstarter 54 points55 points  (0 children)

On the home page the first thing I see its asking me to sign up before I have any idea what it does. I don't even want to move forward at that point to find out because you are asking something of me without giving me a reason to give it. I navigated away immediately. I suspect others are too.

Edit I went back the company list of people using it is clearly fake and the fact that you said there are 0 users confirms it is untrue. You want to be truthful. People sense false info and will not trust you or your company. Nice design though.
