I skimmed through the section and simply assumed the worst, sorry about that. Still, it is closed source, so you just have to trust them, bro, and that's more often than not the wrong approach.

edit: Skimming a bit more, there actually seem to be some valid concerns around privacy, since TamperMonkey seems to have used (still uses?) google analytics, which is enabled by default, so take that as you will; see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26057106

TamperMonkey is closed source. I'd recommend ViolentMonkey instead, since it's open source and is practically identical to the other *Monkey extensions.

~~edit: To add, the developer of TamperMonkey has also shown themselves to be not worthy of trust; see Wikipedia under Controversy.~~

An excellent online and open-source version of minesweeper. Notably, every game can be won with logic alone (no guessing needed).

I'd suggest playing this with the following settings to minimize tedium and maximize fun:

  • grid: evil
  • mode: autopilot (also, try with "normal" to see the difference)
  • punish guessing: on
  • subtract flags: on

Hot take: let this brain rot format die already. If you cannot hold your attention for longer than a few minutes at a time, you might want to work on that instead of embracing it.

Elon's Death

For a brief moment, I was so excited... Rip deer.

Oh my... I though the big companies had a mutual understanding that throwing shit at each other is a huge no-no. There's enough shit to drown them all in it time and again, so this should be hilarious to watch unfold.

At least they are consistent, so I guess that's something...

This reads like a desperate attempt at proving to investors that their "AI" is useful for handling factual information, with a hint of plain old corporate bribery to avoid further lawsuits from publishers. Grifters gonna grift, and all that.

And do some more stock buybacks and raise dividends, of course.

Or, hear me out, there was NO figuring of any kind, just some magic LLM autocomplete bullshit. How hard is this to understand?

Idealistically and realistically: Totally and absolutely cool. If anything, they have a moral imperative to keep the project going, since there are users that depend on it, and doing that requires money. As such, people will need to be informed of how to contribute, so a pop up doing just that is a good way to achieve this. Why would this not be ok, even idealistically?
