I am really excited for this. Once going home with my family via Uber in SFO we realized on the freeway that our driver was high and driving at 80-85 mph.
It was a really scary experience and I couldn’t do much about it in the moment.
They need to make it eligible for Class Action lawsuits to be filed if these are ignored. I wrote a script to routinely test opt out on websites and was stunned to see almost 50% had it implemented incorrectly. This includes high-flying tech companies that went public recently.
Under California’s CCPA / CPRA, most enforcement power lies with the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) and the California Attorney General, not private individuals. This limits the actual downside to a company vs. an unbounded downside of class-action lawsuit threat.
Like many things where what constitutes base data changes and hence graphs change pretty radically, this can be cleanly explained by diagnostic drift. Here's a detailed breakdown: https://www.cremieux.xyz/p/how-to-end-the-autism-epidemic
The reason isn't technical. This isn't implemented because the entire card-processing ecosystem is hooked on the chargeback fees (min $15 to $100). It starts becoming a lucrative revenue stream for Visa/Mastercard/Stripe/Adyen/WorldPay/Fiserv and the entire ecosystem.
Merchant's end up getting the short end of the stick in most cases.
It is quite popular in testing circles to write e2e tests that are easier to maintain.
However, in practice I have found it to be quite useless due to the time it takes to write good page objects. QA teams usually rely on a complete POM before writing tests on it. I used to joke that by the time my team was done shipping a page object model, our product team would have changed the entire product again.
I used to be in-charge of homepage getting over 1.5M views a day. I would really be curious how this converts. I am assuming Posthog has a lot of metrics.
If I were to bet, while this is fun, it will be a disaster for conversions once the launch hype goes away.
Yes an electron app helps tremendously, especially for managing lifecycle of tabs independently. We use that for creating our AI browser automations at Donobu (https://donobu.com). However, we do have the luxury of just focusing on a narrow AI QA use case vs. Browser-Use and others who need to support broad usecases in potentially adversarial environments.
2011 were definitely not the dark ages!! I used to use Selenium for everything back in the day. I was able to scrape all of Wikipedia in 2011 entirely on my laptop and pipe it to Stanford NLTK to create a very cool adjective recommender for nouns.
Chewing plant twigs to clean teeth is an ancient way of tooth cleaning in many cultures[1]. I wonder if the Lignin or Suberin in plants acts the same was as Keratin in this study.
It doesn't have to be all or nothing. Some AI tools can be genuinely helpful. I ran a browser automation QA bot that I am building on this website and it found the following link is broken:
"Every Layout - loads of excellent layout primitives, and not a breakpoint in sight."
In this case, the AI is taking action on my local browser at my instance. I don't think we have a great category for this type of user-agent
My wife decided to not travel to Japan due to an impending warning from a manga for July 2025. I have been making fun of her all month only to get this tsunami warning now!
> The 2021 reprint capitalizing off this revived popularity warned of a "real disaster" in July 2025, causing a minor case of mass hysteria in 2025 when summer trips to Japan from East Asia decreased markedly and several airlines even cancelled flights.
I grew up in India and now live in the US. My mom recently got some ground turmeric from our own farm when she visited us. I am was stunned by how much more duller, brownish-yellow it was compared to the turmeric I buy in Indian stores in the US. Those are usually really bright yellows.
Now, I am really scared that even stuff sold in California is probably lead paint tainted turmeric.
I think the Playwright MCP is a really good example of the overall problem that the author brings up.
However, I couldn’t really understand if he’s saying that the Playwright MCP is good to use for your own app or whether he means for your own app just tell the LLM directly to export Playwright code.
I am not from the deaf community, but my son has severe hearing loss. I really look forward to a world where condition like his simply becomes fixable like bad teeth and he doesn't have to miss out on so many things.
I love the idea of a trainable robot arm as a learning device at that price point.
However, seeing the chess demo instantly makes me think of that horrible tragedy with the robotic arm breaking a kid's finger. How strong is this to be used around kids?
I do this too by pasting only the relevant context files into O3 or Claude 4. We have an internal tool that just lets us select folders/files and spit out one giant markdown.
