  • Thank you for pointing that out. I don’t use it for anything critical, and it’s been very useful because Kagi’s summarizer works on things like YouTube videos friends link which I don’t care enough to watch. I speak the language pair I use DeepL on, but DeepL often writes more natively than I can. In my anecdotal experience, LLMs have greatly improved the quality of machine translation.







  • It’s about usage patterns. If you know you only need 60% of the battery, charging it to 100% will degrade it more, for little utility. The newer Google phones get 7 years of updates, but without due care the battery will reach 80% of its capacity before that. On an aside, a battery is considered to have reached its end of life at a capacity reduction of 20%, and not 40%.

    If you 100-0 the battery every day, then there’s not much you can do. But if you’re a lighter user, then using the 20-80% (or 40-60) part instead of the 40-100% part of the battery makes it last longer. And that’s good in terms of environmental sustainability, reduction of e-waste, and you can use the phone for longer, too.
