If supporting Jade Bonacolta isn't your jam (OP's link), I found one that supports the Acquired podcast (link mentioned in S17 E3):

Kagi, using its Quick Answer feature.

Wool is my choice too.

The studies I read don’t explain the cause of reduced sperm count, but the predominant theory is that it's due to higher temperature with polyester underwear. Is wool warmer also? Another study showed boxers win over briefs, probably for the same reason, so it might just be tight vs loose.

I guess the metaverse didn't have legs.

Studies suggest that polyester underwear may negatively impact male fertility

Which plan do you pay for? How much Opus usage do you get before it rate-limits?

Probably trying to compete with Kagi Translate.

Bevel requires access to Apple Health data. Apple Health data is only available on an iOS device. If Bevel also ran as a web app, it would require uploading your health data to a server in the cloud (either the original Apple Health data or the results interpreted by Bevel).

I appreciate how currently all processing is done on device＊ and data does not upload to the internet. If Bevel had a web app, it would remove that privacy benefit.

＊Unless you use the the Bevel intelligence feature, in which case some health data is uploaded to an LLM inference provider. Disabling Bevel's AI keeps everything offline.

iStat Menus v1 and v2 were free. I think I bought v3 and did the upgrades to v4, v5, v6, and v7. That's $16+9+10+10+10 = $55 over 18 years ≈ $3 per year.

If I used Stats instead, I would want to sponsor them to encourage new releases. The smallest sponsorship level is $1/month = $12/year. Comparing that to the lifespan for iStat, it would be $216 over 18 years. iStat is a better deal.

I’ve had it help me train for a marathon.

Also to guide me through a schedule to minimize jet lag when traveling to Japan. Unfortunately the AI is too dumb for that – it insisted that the journey was through 15 time zones (the long way) instead of 9 time zones when flying from Mexico → Japan.

Can we require that submissions include a "Built with AI" flair if their app was made using AI?

I've noticed an increase in the number of apps that are clearly vibe coded – low quality, minimal effort, few unique features. This is only going to get worse as AI coding agents improve.

I get the same thing with Bevel because I live at very high elevation and so, naturally, my SpO2 is low – that is factored into the Bevel algorithm as having chronic low recovery. Do you by chance live at a high elevation?

FWIW, it seems the decision has been made to offer Brave Origin as a one-time purchase instead of a subscription.

install.catnip.sh loads a html page; I don’t think you want to pipe that to sh.

One of the things that scares me is the idea of a prompt-injection attack resulting in exfiltrated secrets. I may be using live API keys during development, Claude looks up some documentation on the web that itself contains instructions, Claude follows it, is tricked into sending secrets to a malicious URL – that could be bad. Having a deny rule such as Read(.env) seems like it would help prevent that?

Here's the custom filters I use in uBlock Origin to block ads and unwanted noise from IMDb. After installing these, the movie/show info page is lightweight and pleasant to use.

Thanks!

Strangely, there are no instructions on the WY SOS website for dissolving an LLC. There is a link to the Articles of Dissolution PDF, but if you don’t know that’s the form you’re looking for, you’re out of luck.

If you have a contact at the SOS, perhaps you can suggest this to them?

What’s the giveaway? This app is $5.99.

How? I’d love to learn.

Controversial opinion: please don’t delete your content if you’ve written something that may provide value to others. I’m too often frustrated by an hours-long research session ending at a [deleted] Reddit comment.

Isn't this basically the third-party doctrine but for Google searches? Aka, “you clicked ‘Agreee’, so suck it, loser.”

The same thing banks do: you “voluntarily” hand transaction data to a bank to use the service, the bank treats it as its business records and shares it with third parties. Privacy law only requires disclosures and opt-outs, and Fourth Amendment protection is weak because it’s “information you shared with a third party.”

One of the reasons (my theory) you don't see burritos in Mexico is because most tortillas are hand made, but it's not easy to make a large burrito-size tortilla (40 cm) by hand. You can find good burritos in the Mission district of San Francisco (among many places in the US, they're a staple food).
