That was exactly my experience with AI coding - useful for ideas and boiler plate code, but not much more.

I had to stop at 100 or I would have been there all day.

Very nice, but I did end up seeing what rude words I could make.

I would argue that the second screenshot with redesigned Lighthouse is slightly worse that the "old" design
- the vertical ruler between the sidebar and the content is gone, making page structure less pronounced - the redesigned dropdown menu has no borders or shadows and blends with the primary background - the redesigned dropdown menu lost the little dot which highlighted currently selected option, replacing it with a folder icon, but now it's not useful, because it's the same folder icon for each option - the old design had really nice and noticeable "Add URL" button. I suppose, it was removed in favor of the "plus" button in the sidebar, but it's not nearly as noticeable and without the label it's not clear what it actually does
Sure, the issues in the old version are valid, but I think the redesign introduced more severe usability issues instead of mostly aesthetic issues
It's also far more difficult to read the numbers relating to the items in the drop down menu. You have to make an effort to track to the right with your eyes to make sure you are in the same row, whereas before the number was right next to the item. There is no need to have the numbers aligned because they are not for comparison.
The first time I've actually appreciated my laptop's touch screen.

There seems to me to be a lot of misplaced trust involved in connecting to Wifi networks. It's easy to set up your own public AP and why not call it "Netork Rail Free Wifi" or something?

I can't believe how well this works. Brilliant stuff.

Not trying to be rude, just curious—why are people so obsessed with Elon Musk, whether positively or negatively?
I don't see this kind of attention given to figures like Jeff Bezos, Tim Cook, or Warren Buffett.
They don't continuously prove that they are huge gaping arseholes with the intellect of a mollusc like he does.

I tried the example with FF on Ubuntu, and it had no effect whatsoever. It didn't even use up any memory. Are browsers protecting against this now?
