According to ICE, the Ecuadorian consulate is not clearly marked as the consulate. How much clearer does it need to be marked for ICE? www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

How Nice Is Too Nice for an AI Chatbot? | EP 134
YouTube video by Hard Fork How Nice Is Too Nice for an AI Chatbot? | EP 134

It's Hard Fork Friday! This week on the show:

-- A hard look at Glazegate, and why it's bad when AI models are too nice
-- I got scanned by a Worldcoin orb
-- And @pjvogt.bsky.social joins us for a new segment about what's going on in our group chats

It's not perfect yet. There may still be a few glitches here and there, and I think there are still a few chunks of German in some places. I used Gemini 3, Deepseek R1, Mistral Code and also did some manual programming.

The result is Emyn. It can be run on your own server, on Cloudflare Pages, on Github Pages, or anywhere else. It works with Supabase, whereby the freetier should be perfectly adequate for a handful of users.

But what I really missed was a feed reader with a good bookmarking feature that offered more than just โ€˜Read it laterโ€™. So I vibe coded a feed reader and incorporated the functionality of my little bookmarking service into it. Something that took a little longer than originally anticipated.

I know it's risky to release a Vibe coding project to the public. But after the penultimate hard fork episode from @caseynewton.bsky.social and @kevinroose.com, I felt inspired. I had already created a small private clone of Del.ico.us.

With Vibe Coding, people can once again express their personality and create wild, cool and stylish designs that are always different, instead of using pre-made designs from hosts such as Squarespace. It's like the 90s all over again!

My site is pretty much the complete opposite of Casey's website. I've kept it extremely minimalistic, i wanted to keep it as small as possible (without images, it is only 95 kilobytes in size). And it's hosted for free on GitHub Pages. These different approaches is what makes it so exciting!

I'm so glad that @caseynewton.bsky.social spoke so enthusiastically about how he built his website with Claude Code. Because I felt the same way about Gemini 3 Pro. I also built myself a new website and was thrilled โ€” and almost felt silly for being so enthusiastic about it. michaelfoertsch.de

Und ja, ... das mit Diablo stimmt (hรถchstwahrscheinlich). Aber das รคndert nichts daran, dass die Aussage von Oates nicht korrekt ist.

Es ist bizarr, wenn man sich alte Tweets von ihm anschaut, wie und was er schrieb; worรผber er sich mit anderen auch unterhielt, wie er auf Tweets einging. Es gab eine Zeit, da war Musk DER Ansprechpartner fรผr Tesla-Kรคufer, der einfachmal Probleme lรถste und Features auf den Weg brachte.

Ja, die Geschichte kenne ich. Ich habe sie auch live mitverfolgt und einige der Streams gesehen. Aber was Musks Auftreten angeht, das war auch mal anders. Oder es wirkte zumindest so. Musk war vor 2020 vergleichsweise offen, wirkte authentisch und in dem, was er tat, auch nahbar.

18.11.2025 11:20 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Einige Leute, die Musk schon sehr lange intensiv beobachten, sind der Ansicht, dass es zwischen 2020 und 2022 einen Einschnitt in seinem Leben gab, der seine Radikalisierung bedingte oder beschleunigte. Und damit auch sein Verhรคltnis zur ร–ffentlichkeit.

Er hat auch immer wieder Fotos von sich und seinem Sohn gepostet. Auffรคllig ist jedoch, dass er das mittlerweile deutlich seltener tut. Er gibt deutlich weniger Einblick in sein Leben und seinen Alltag als zuvor. Stattdessen schlรคgt er verbal viel รถfter um sich.

Das Problem ist nur, dass die Bewertungsgrundlage fรผr das, was Oates schreibt, nicht stimmt. Musk hat sich immer wieder dazu geรคuรŸert oder Bilder von Dingen gepostet, die ihm gefallen. Von seinem Hund, von Videospielen, ... er hat eine ganze Weile immer mal wieder Diablo 3 gestreamt.
