The human.json protocol is worth checking out as a proxy for the whole "more human internet" conversation. Not perfect but interesting!

`human.json` is a neat idea and I’ve been watching it closely. I’m even debating dropping one on my own site.

That being said, the fact that the obvious attack vector goes completely unaddressed gives me pause.

what obvious attack vector? It's just a list of urls and dates, and the dates don't even really mean anything.

It would be better if it acted like a vouch tree so you could create a web of trust but there's no enforcement mechanism so I don't even know how that would work.

Ha, I was just researching early email newsletter history and came across High Weirdness By Mail - A Directory of The Fringe: Mad Prophets, Crackpots, Kooks & True Visionaries. It's literally just subscription addresses and paragraph summaries like

> "A neo-pagan publication aimed mainly at neophytes, shamans, medicine men. And women...Drawing on numerous traditions, it provides almost a survey course in such diverse topics as astrology, runecasting, elemental (magic) the I Ching, > and Chinese medicine, 75¢ each, $8/year."

Yup. I was going to mention that book. Boy oh boy, did I get some weirdness in the mail. One envelope was soaked in blood. I'm surprised the mail carrier delivered it.

I saw this post at the exact same time I ran across this elsewhere: https://www.phonearena.com/news/pixel-6-7-8-9-10-battery-dra...

There's no way to definitively say they're cause and effect but also....

"These rules could force YouTube to give special treatment to a small group of organisations hand-picked by a government."

YouTube already skews results based on their own priorities and preferences (which is often for very good reasons[1]). Hilariously hypocritical that they're whining about a "for me but not for you" problem here.

vintageapple.org also has a really great collection of scans fwiw

It's just the social app being killed off, no? Wouldn't this line up with rumors that they'll soon let you create videos inside of chatgpt itself? I wish the actual video model would die but I assume this news is not that.

I don't think so. Disney is ending their deal with them, it sounds like they're exiting video generation as a business.

According to WSJ they’re getting out of the video game entirely:

Hilarious that anyone would think the most literally average output of a thing would be capable of selling said thing. Of course it'll take more salespeople to sell a very mid product (not a comment on AI/LLMs in general, just their editorial applications)

I moved to a self-hosted Wallabag (https://wallabag.org/) after Pocket shut down. Not the sexiest but does everything I need it to. It has Chrome/Firefox extensions for saving open tabs.

Never get tired of seeing this resurface every once and a while. There needs to be a /greatest for posts like these (while still allowing people to repost them every so often)

I have a little bit of data on that from my post last summer. It's pretty easy to query the data: ryanfarley.co/ai-show-hn-data/
