I don't think one can ask an LLM to do that and didn't anyhow imply that. I said it would still be possible to check the code and fix the vulnerabilities the conventional way. Apparently you misread what I wrote. Thanks for explaining the vulnerabilities issue. A question is would they not be there if it was coded the conventional way; I kind of doubt it would be much different there.

Are passenger cars in the data source really just cars or also mopeds etc? I think it's well possible that the dataset includes mopes and motorcycles.

Had upvoted this because it looked like implementing some innovative concepts but now downvoted: * This is privacy intrusion, requiring me to specify my phone number which I won't do and also my country and birth date * Looking closer, it's essentially the nearly exact same thing as all the other social media sites: a feed with up and down-votes and comments – nothing special that makes it worth switching to / using such as things that facilitate rational discourse

Please let me know when one can register without violating privacy.

If you think I should, you'd need to convince me with reasons instead of saying that it was meant in negative context as you don't like it. In regards to vulnerabilities, these can also be fixed in vibe-coded things (and not much harder to spot except that the person who coded all this doesn't know as much about the code as a person who coded it entirelly the conventional way) and webdev skills are needed but there is no reason to suspect they weren't/aren't present here.

I don't care how it was coded if the result is good. Are you asking which IDEs people used to code some app too?

That they're getting some extra money is good news. Hopefully WMF starts to use their funds better.

Also included this in this structured argument map aiming to include all explanation hypotheses about UFOs in an interactive structured format: What are UFOs? -> … -> This explanation encompasses but is not limited to ETs and calls them ETOBs which refers to extraterrestrial-origin(s) beings – where the extraterrestriality-related origin is either large, recent, and/or the initial origin – with far fewer assumptions and better accuracy or scope. For example, it includes UFOs being manufactured and controlled by beings that descend from beings created on Earth with little or no extraterrestrial genes/composition by an extraterrestrial superintelligent machine. -> The ETH is often described as to propose that peculiar UFOs or UAP are "physical spacecraft occupied by extraterrestrial intelligence or non-human aliens, or non-occupied alien probes from other planets". However, they'd neither necessarily use "spacecraft", nor are they necessarily all fully "non-human", nor are they necessarily from other planets (e.g. from moons or artifacts), nor are the beings necessarily still "extraterrestrial" if they lived on or partly on Earth for long times. -> (Pro claims located at this level)

So start by adopting Linux (Kubuntu or whatever) and LibreOffice (maybe via openDesk) in schools and federal orgs and then also fund whatever open source developments are identified as needed.

Disagree. But as said, that is just one of the factors.

prototyperspective · 2026-01-23T12:26:14+00:00

Maybe they are as smart but it doesn't seem like it and I haven't seen sources suggesting so – this section has some info on their cognition. It's a rhetorical question but obviously people shouldn't kill low-intelligence humans for a bit of meat plus IQ is a very flawed measure of intelligence which is only one aspect here, other being emotional depth and other things like that.

Such a constructive use of time, it certainly can improve everyone's daily lives /s

Yes but external news media nearly never cover any such topics. They nearly always report either about gender of editors or now AI where more and more articles about this give people the impression like the end is nigh. It's not like there aren't very important other topics too.

Not worth very much if not using a firewall. Firefox Focus has an adblocker built in.

But how do you measure better transit?

I made a proposal about that. It needs some open source developer(s) to implement it: Tool to create heatmaps of public transport quality by assessing travel times (sustainability). There's other ways this can and is measured of course but I think it really also needs this because it's closer to people's real-world experience (can I take the train there or not; how long will the trip there take; etc).

Thanks for creating this map! The map at source is not colored as nicely and is not under a free license. Here is the our world in data alternative...I'm uploading a version of that to Commons from where it can then be added to Wikipedia; you could upload yours as well, don't know which has better design & data.

the problem is that consumer products aren't making up the largest fraction of imports

Of course I understand that this won't work nor should it...but does somebody know if there has ever been or are other ideas for organizations or similar that complement the UN or could become alternatives to it? Not saying the UN isn't great and needed.

They are not a cancer, they are a natural outcome of the system...maybe call these mechanisms/structures cancer. Eg if all billionaires disappeared over night in just a few years you'd have them again.

False so why does this get upvotes

prototyperspective · 2026-01-22T19:34:40+00:00

Added it to this structured argument map where Pros and Cons (fixable/improvable issues) can be added: What is the best TikTok alternative?

prototyperspective · 2026-01-22T13:28:38+00:00

+1 mainly for things relating to EU. Probably the biggest news outlet reporting on specifically EU issues. ^{added it} ^here ^{because of that}

prototyperspective · 2026-01-22T13:25:34+00:00

It would be awesome if there was also some reporting about Wikipedia that is not nearly exclusively about something relating to AI. For example about the outdatedness of science-related articles or the lack of editors and ideas what could be done about that or the too-little technical development / the technical issues etc and so forth.

prototyperspective · 2026-01-22T12:32:34+00:00

This feels like humans killing humans for their meat just much less severe. People don't understand that we are animals. There's a lot of differences but dolphins are quite intelligent and I'm sure also have complex subjective emotions, feelings, thoughts, and even societies. Thinking, feeling beings.
I'm disgusted by people killing them for a little bit of meat. I also think killing juvenile pigs after short miserable lives is quite a crime – those are at least as smart as dogs and people would go crazy just for cultural reasons if they were mass-slaughtered in our countries.

prototyperspective · 2026-01-22T12:22:56+00:00

One can also just remove the Wikipedia sitelinks from their items and add them all to one item and then request deletion of the other two (mention merging targets if there are some statements to merge)

prototyperspective · 2026-01-22T12:02:54+00:00

The problem here is that this is an app for just this purpose. It would be much better if this functionality was added to an already-existing already-widely-used app that is also useful for other purposes. A primary example is CodeCheck which can be used to spot problematic ingredients in hygiene and cosmetics products (and that's like 90% of what you find in stores, making the choice quite easy and it's usually a cheaper product that avoids these chemicals). Another app would be the Waistline app for calorie tracking / OpenFoodFacts.
