It looks claudish in writing style

Isn't Jev a trademark?

well that didnt take long now its: "Independent research project. Formerly called OpenJev. Not affiliated with or endorsed by TypeSafe. No infringement is intended."

AskJeeves really was ahead of its time with its name and branding.

Believe it is in Jevons as in the nuclear energy that was "too cheap to measure" this is if statements that are too cheap to measure. Or it is measured in J eV.

Why some people keep mentioning this? Isn't LLMs trained and output copyrighted and trademarked content?

Courts have ruled they can, as long as they pay for the content. Yes it's amoral at best, but lawful. Using a trademark in your brand name is not. You can't create "OpenExcel" or "OpenOpenAi"

Are you from Nebraska?

I am, or was. Once, while living there, I wrote a little C program to read a Visual FoxPro database file and write out PostgreSQL commands to load the data. It was for my employer at the time. We needed it for a migration.

And then, a year later, I got invited to a PostgreSQL convention in Brazil where it was one of the tools being quasi-formally recommended to help migrate the country off of VFP.

The world can feel awfully freaking small sometimes.


For real? Wow, i was just referencing the xkcd comic: https://xkcd.com/2347/ what a funny coincidence

Yeah, for real. A friend sent me a copy, captioned “this u?”, and I nearly choked.

Can we turn liquid glass fully off?

It's a bit like building a ICBM on your backyard and accidentally striking an inhabited area while safety testing it

Not really though

Not yet anyway

TLDR: Perplexity agents allegedly ignored Amazon's robots.txt

robots.txt is a suggestion, not a rule. It's a service to crawlers to help them avoid wasting time. Using robots.txt as a security measure is like trying to stop a foreign invader with a "road closed" sign.

Edit: this is obviously assuming they literally meant robots.txt, but from a qyick skim of the site, it doesn't look like that was mentioned at least. I guess you meant it metaphorically :P


> robots.txt is a service to crawlers to help them avoid wasting time

I doubt anyone edits robots.txt with a warm fuzzy feeling about how much they are helping crawlers be efficient.


Well that's what they're doing.

Why should they not? So does my browser when I ask it to open a website.

that's because the only rule they are investigating is if it makes them more money leaving it there and paying an eventual fine or removing it

Money
