Cloudflare released cloudflare/vibesdk, but it requires a Google ai key so I'm not understanding how it is any better then using Google's AI Studio builder directly (or even just canvas in Gemini).

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Tried Kagi Search, gave it an honest go, but the results don't do it for me. 🧐 Love the privacy angle, but not seeing the hype. For quality, Google still reigns. For privacy, DuckDuckGo is a better balance than Kagi (better results and privacy).

@cathygellis.bsky.social I appreciated you fighting for our rights on TWiT this week. We can't let the government abridge the freedom of speech regardless of there being a good reason. It's a one-way trip.
I'm curious where your stance that the Constitution gives rights to non-Americans comes from?

This is an embarrassing piece of propaganda that ignores the harms of KOSA (which have been widely detailed), pretends that counter evidence (of which there is a ton) doesn't exist, and pretends that Haidt's book hasn't been torn to shreds by experts.
The cell phones and schools movement is years in the making. Susan Linn, who has been at the forefront of it, writes about the shift within schools and the evidence underpinning it.
