YMMV but TFA page content body didn’t render for me until I disabled my local pihole.

Firefox reader mode also helps

The big value to me as a BART/Caltrain rider was the ability to avoid traffic and avoid parking hassles within SF. In SOMA, at least, street parking is mostly metered 4 hours max, and private parking is $30-60/day.

@dang please retitle with (2018)

Followed by “where is the back button.”

Answer: sometimes apps let you swipe right from the left margin, sometimes there may be a left arrow in the upper left, but it may not be visible unless you enable tinted Liquid Glass, but also look in the bottom left, there may be a less-than sign, and some times you have to force-quit the app and restart (like with Libby books borrowed via Kindle…)


You mean the “roulette-wheel do-something-vaguely-backish” button?


I can't remember the last time I've encountered an app that didn't let you swipe to go back. That's practically built into iOS at this point.


Does apply still sometimes put the back button in the top left?

That used to drive me nuts especially as they grew the phone to size 5+ inches



Well aware of these, however that would not benefit in this case. Their main protection is against pre computed lookup tables. But since the operator needs to be able to lookup the license plate within their own database, then they would not be using either of these. If the operator really wanted to do this in a safe way for the user then the whole database should exist client side.

You can ask it. Each model responds slightly differently to "What pronouns do you prefer for yourself?"

Opus 4.5:

I don’t have strong preferences about pronouns for myself. People use “it,” “they,” or sometimes “he” or “she” when referring to me, and I’m comfortable with any of these.

If I had to express a slight preference, “it” or “they” feel most natural since I’m an AI rather than a person with a gender identity. But honestly, I’m happy with whatever feels most comfortable to you in conversation.

Haiku 4.5:

I don’t have a strong preference for pronouns since I’m an AI without a gender identity or personal identity the way humans have. People typically use “it” when referring to me, which is perfectly fine. Some people use “they” as well, and that works too.

Feel free to use whatever feels natural to you in our conversation. I’m not going to be bothered either way.
