You have failed to understand it AGAIN. Good job failing.

It does NOT tell you what the list is. Period. Stop assuming it will advertise to you. You are repeatedly describing how you have FAILED to understand what it’d even be attempting…

Doesn’t DuckDuckGo not have AI?

Completely terrible. An AI “search” takes as much electricity as hundreds to thousands of normal searches.

'AI" is TERRIBLE for climate change because they’re increasing demand for electricity so much that they’re keeping coal plants going that were even scheduled for decomissioning because they use A LOT of power.

It’s almost certainly going to be milliamps or microamps unless you’re inches from something. This isn’t for cellphones and the like but for remote sensors and the like. I also bet they’ll at least have to have a capacitor to store up extra charge for chirping back only sometimes.

Oh no… They WOULD piss on you. Just not to help put out the fire.

Like I said: A sign of a company cutting corners. In an industry where nobody but share holders want corners cut.

The problem is airplanes have very strict procedures to keep the industry safe. When procedures aren’t followed, something is going wrong. While powder and vaseline might not be dangerous, they are an obvious indication of a company not following their own policies nor aviation regulation.

Do you think it should be viewed as a problem when a company starts cutting corners and ALREADY HAS gotten hundreds killed for it?

Marketing and executive work shares many similarities with being in first grade. Flashy colors and stupid slogans go pretty far when the target has a child’s brain.

Possibly, though for now, they’ve worked with the ad blocker devs and kept everything working WITH v3 in FireFox. Google will not do it in Chrome because defeating the ad blockees is the point.

Capitalists do nothing for free because they are callous, heartless monsters.

“Excellent”, responds Musk to himself.

I’m a fan of the swiss cheese model of safety. While blindly blocking arbitrary characters is a bit silly, not filtering/encoding the data even on the output from web services can end up in disaster.

It’s an open API that serves publicly-sourced data. I’d not want to serve up anything more than markup content even if every single API call had perfect handling. At least not without a lot more sophisticated filtering in front of it. Even certain totally valid arrangements of HTML can be vulnerable as all hell.

Even certain markup systems have problems, but I doubt this one has huge vulnerabilities to exploit. Certain wiki systems in the past had to be completely retired over such things.

I mean, it doesn’t really matter how correct the general sentiment is if the article still gets a key detail or two wrong. The incorrect details still need a retraction, and if they’re the main reasoning for the general conclusion… well, it’s much more attractive to have an article with actual reasons than, “it feels like Google search sucks.”.

Allowing tainted data in to the dataset means every single client has to do every single spot of content rendering correctly or else be vulnerable to easy hacking. Keeping it out of the dataset means not all clients have to be perfect for Lemmy to be a secure place.

bahaha truly pathetic

Calling it a “buzzword” is dismissive of it. Or are you also too stupid to understand subtext?

I don’t think they’re entirely different. Enshittification is just a specific type. Yes, of course it has distinguishing qualities or we’d be having a totally different convo.

IMO, it’s more important to realize enshittification is not a new development! It’s just way, WAY more obvious now that the ruling class has allowed effective monopolies to rise again. When only one or two companies control an entire market, their shitty tactics become way, way more obvious and painful for consumers.

If you do not believe in FAFO as a fundamental truth (even if it is said often) then you might just be dumb.

Don’t let annoyed obstinance turn you in to a dummy denying basic facts of reality.

Not OP, but I get completely trash results on a ton of technical questions no matter how I phrase it. Not a specific example, but if I’m having an issue with some niche distribution of Linux that requires a specific fix, it’ll instead insist on showing me the massive pile of results for the normal distros instead of the couple of links containing the answer I want.

For as shitty as Google has gotten, it’ll at least give you the one or two better hits before piling on the generic results.

It’s like DDG changes the query to get more results whereas Google will just run the damn search even if they stuff the results with ads and tracking.

There is still value in calling out the exploitation. It might not be as shitty as leveraging different customer pools, but it absolutely is the same exact business mindset that creates enshittification.

I don’t think it’s wrong to at least associate the two things even if “enshittification” remains more about gearing systems to exploit customers vs basic direct exploitation of customers.
