I have no idea how you browse the internet with uBlock Origin. It’s literally unusable to me. It’s free, and you should always have it installed, it’s simply essential.
Because uBlock Origin doesn’t work on all platforms and browsers. Notably, it doesn’t work with Apple’s plugin system, so anyone using Safari or an iOS device cannot use it.
Try chatgpt 4 premium. I have heard it automatically auto correct itself with code.
I regularly use gpt-4 for coding since it’s the backend behind github copilot, and my company has approved use of copilot (and I have copilot plugins installed for vscode and vs2022). It’s useful for autocompleting boilerplate code, but gets things wrong all the time about anything more complicated.
That’s a good point, but I’m fairly sure culture plays a part as well. It’s likely some combination.
Yep. Musk is basing his idea about having an “everything app” on WeChat’s success in China, which basically does what he’s talking about. The problem is that he doesn’t seem to understand that there are cultural differences at play between Chinese users and western users that prevent mass-adoption of a single app to do everything in the west, and that WeChat already exists and isn’t popular in the west at all.
ChatGPT and Bard?
Doubtful, considering ChatGPT has only been public since late last year, and Bard’s even newer. I also really hope those aren’t a large factor, since most coding examples I’ve seen from ChatGPT only deal with questions of a really rudimentary nature and have given useless or wrong information about anything more nuanced or complicated.
Not really. There’s something called Firefox available and it’s published by Mozilla, but Mozilla has to deal with Apple’s restrictions on web browsers by using the webkit rendering engine and Apple’s proprietary plugin system. So it’s not real Firefox.
