If you think hyperlinks have any danger of going extinct, I have shares in a crypto-based AI-powered bridge to sell you.
But will it integrate NFTs?
It’s made out of NFTs.
BRB, raising another round of capital to integrate NFTs
The whole thing is on the blockchain its a WEB 3.0 phenomenon using Quantum Computing Running on fusion power.
In VR I hope
I believe it means existing links, which many are already gone. Not the ability to link.
Sigh… so clickbait title strikes again? I wish I was surprised.
That was my guess, I can’t get the page to load due to an error. Maybe AI’s fault too?
Hrm, AI makes blue colored text that is underlined and says “clck here” (yes, misspelled in the OP!), but it doesn’t go anywhere!? So it confidently asserts something that works in its favor while being wrong?
Naw, I blame Reddit for that behavior:-).
…But how can I click on it? All of the hyperlinks are gone.
Oh no! Anyway… 🫠
Can we carve out a part of the internet please where we go back to super basic html pages that are a mix of self hosted hobby blogs and university research sites? It was good then. Everything’s gotten so noisy, and busy, and shit.
There’s other types of “small web” out there too.
Gemini, the protocol is built on never adding new shit, so it’s only basic pages
Gemini project is doing that
There is Neocities and a few other sites that allow you to make and share your own sites. Though some sites are more than just basic html, so experience will vary, but you can find basic pages dedicated to hobbies and such if you sift through them. Only problem with these sites/services, assuming the other ones are run like Neocities, is that you are given a pretty limited amount of space.
Just use tor browser on strict mode and you’ll find it. They do exist.
Interesting. Is that because it blocks JavaScript, ads etc?
The browser you’re looking for is literally called Links.
Links is just a browser, it doesn’t fix the websites themselves Search engines gatekeeps websites away, making it borderline impossible to find anything SEO optimized makes way too much noise to find anything meaningful And JavaScript makes browsers like Links borderline unusable
JavaScript makes browsers like Links borderline unusable
Not my experience. Links just makes borderline unusable websites completely unusable.
Ah, yes, of course, foolish of me
Time to build a new one and this time, dont tell investors.
“The first rule in government spending: why build one when you can have two twice the price?”
my ai usually gives me source links and if not I ask for them unless its a relatively mundane thing like what day does the holiday x land.
So the problem is that AI based search engines dont give credit to their source sites because they do not link to the aource site, but instead steal the content in a legally untested method and serve that up.
Nothing to do with links going extinct.
Humans have the same problem :(
To be fair, it isn’t aware of what source it’s using. It’s not “referencing” anything in particular. It’s just trained to replicate a bunch of data. It doesn’t understand it or anything. It doesn’t know what came from one source and what came from another, and how accurate any of those are, or what the context of it is. It just generates something that resembles it’s data based on the input.
It can if it’s using something like RAG.
Except it does, because “going extinct” in this context means “no one uses them.” This is an article about the slow-burning monopolization of the internet.
Are you saying that my knowledge of how to hyperlink in HTML is going to be obsolete?!
Of course. The modern way is
<div class="inline text-blue-700 underline" onclick="window.location.href='https://[email protected]/_40795251_Penis_Free_Movies_'">Click here</div>Penis-free movies, or penis+free movies? Inquiring minds want to know!
Uh you’re using tailwind, the future really is bleak
does tailwind functionally just move the css into the class attribute? why would that be a good idea?
It’s essentially just a bunch of pre-made css classes that do a specific thing that you mix and match from.
AFAIK the programmatic part is so your served CSS file will only include the classes you actually use, rather than all available ones. You could always just not do that.
It always seemed to me like one of the least overengineered front end tools.
Yes, instead you’ll have a text saying “To jump to the article, recite the following:
