Third party licensed apps are everything on Windows.

I think this matter is simple. Before there was no option but to be overstimulated by loud ambients, now there is an option to seek refuge from the loud life with videos and other methods. People have been seeking this in forever, it's got nothing to do with resilience skills.

I won't be weaker in real world situations because I seek comfort in ASMR videos, this is just ridiculous. It's like the banning of smartphones in schools and other things that supposedly break people socially. It's just the fear brought by the rise of new technology (Internet).

This trend in handholding people so that the status quo is preserved pisses me off.

I've tried scraping arXiv before and they blocked my access to the website stating suspicious activity and that I should contact arXiv owners if I want to scrape it, despite the reason for arXiv existing being for Open Access to scientific articles.

Scraping for scientific articles is still on my plans, but not arXiv anymore.

The gap between the common user and the big technology players is more than just a gap of knowledge, these agreements to keep everything on the hands of big companies is problematic, especially when dealing with important philosophical concepts that should guide some websites, like Open Science.

But it is what it is, no use sending an email to arXiv telling they're wrong and they should change their minds. I'll have to look for options.

That was kind of expected, but Claude isn't that good either.

I think it will change our perspective on how the quantum realm works. It will be the first true interaction between humans and quantum effects on a daily basis.

I think quantum computers will revolutionize everything. Imagine everything information but quantum, it will change our grasp on reality in Science and in Common Sense.

Sometimes you need to go back in time (using animals for medical treatment) to go forward.

I use Geany. It's lightweight and easy to use, but there are some features missing.

NotebookLM isn't that impressive, in my opinion. It creates a superficial talk over a document, which is cool, but gets old fast.

I agree. Commercials get in, you get what happened to the Internet. We need something new.

Also, with all due respect to Europe, the United Kingdom and France aren't superpower economies like the US or China, which means this is feasible by a mid range economy like Saudi Arabia, Egypt or Brazil.

I firmly believe that connecting people to their IRL friends is an important part of the potential of the Internet, as it is shown by Facebook, for example.

But I also believe there are people looking to connect with new people and finding a community where they can express themselves wholly. I think the current Internet is weak in this regard, weaker than it has been before, but I think it's possible to build a place where people can connect.
