You can contribute to Servo, Mozilla's new rendering engine written in Rust (which should also fix those performance problems that you mention): https://github.com/servo/servo

Servo is a stand-alone project, but Mozilla will replace some big parts of Firefox with Servo code: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Quantum - So most contributions to Servo will end up in Firefox eventually.
Anti-environmental conspiracy theories (the evil electric car lobby are ruining the business of the nice oil providers for no good reason) aren't really any more useful than environmental conspiracy theories and biases ("chemicals" are bad, "natural" means good etc).

EVs are better for the environment, both local and global, than ICE cars. That's true on average and even truer for Norway with its cleaner grid.

Biodiesals etc. should really be saved for the things that can't be easily electrified, like flying craft. But, at this very moment I believe various places including the US mandate that the diesel is mixed with these fuels to a certain percentage, so there's no big conspiracy here against this type of fuel.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_biofuel_policies...

If someone buys a brand new EV then a) presumably they would have bought a brand new ICE instead, b) they do not set their older car on fire and push it over a cliff, but rather sell it to someone, who in turn sells their car to somoene else. In the end, particularly with punitive tax incentives in place, the oldest, least-safe, least-efficient, most polluting cars in the system are scrapped.

That and "smooth motion" frame interpolation. I don't know how people can stand it.
Nope. Like I said, I use Opera:

* It still has a more impressive array of power user features than Chrome or Firefoxv

* It's sync service is more reliable than the other two.

* It works with Chrome extensions, and has no compatibility issues with websites (unless a site is stupid enough to check with User-Agent headers, and those can be spoofed with an extension in the worst-case).

* Last but not least, Opera has the best mobile browser on the planet (something that isn't even on Vivaldi's radar yet), supporting sync between your desktop and mobile instances.

Basically, it's the perfect blend of power and acknowledgment of contemporary reality today.

Now don't get me wrong... I'm nervous about Opera's recent sale to China, and I certainly could be swayed toward something else. But Vivaldi feels like little more than a "protest" of Opera changes since ver. 12, and I believe that the protesters are in the minority of what is already a small community to begin with.

I wish them well, but would love to see them be something truly different. Go truly open source, instead of making your code publicly visible yet still proprietary. Give more customization options, so users can choose between old-Opera or modern-browser behaviors. No one seriously expects you to "take over the world", but don't just be Opera 12.1 forever out of spite.
Every single day. I listen to the local sports radio, and the local rock stations in the car when I'm driving.

A lot of the places I go don't really have cellular data coverage strong enough to support solid streaming audio. Meanwhile, there is one FM station broadcasting from a mountain top that I can pick up everywhere within a 250 mile radius with ease.
If your website costs so much that you need income to support it and provides so little value that people are unwilling to pay for those costs, then, yes, you should probably shut it down.
Clean Code concepts adapted for JavaScript
Intel is leading by example. They want OEMs to be more creative and innovative, and they are using marketing muscle to create demand for new compute categories.

The NUC/stick are the same, and the Surfaces are Microsoft's way of pushing their OEMs forward. Nexus/Pixel is Google's same realization that they cant just provide one component and pray for third parties to deliver consistent top tier products. These companies create a specific component (processors, Windows, Android) and then release a reference to prevent a race to the bottom. If an OEM cant beat the reference, consumers will buy it instead.
I'd love to work in an underground hard rock mine. Being under the surface has always fascinated me. One of my favorite hobbies is caving. I live in Denver, so the Henderson mine isn't too far away...
I recall him saying in a talk, that there is no need to implement his algorithm.
In a way the algorithm proves that there are no very hard isomorphism cases, which then guarantees that our other practical heuristic algorithms can't do as badly as we might have feared.

While they have been producing endless press releases about "makers" and "IoT" in the last couple of years, they still charge $4k+ for a usb vid (and prohibit sharing) as part of the usb if [0]. So yes, I wouldn't expect much change.

I've been in a similar situation and all I can say is I feel you. I've become very distrustful and suspicious of people in this industry, especially the fast-talking "we're changing the world" kind.

Ultimately, if people want to renege, they will renege. Unless you have a ton of money and energy to throw at lawsuits, it's better to structure your deals in a way that clips your potential downside (e.g. work on a retainer basis, don't accept stocks in lieu of cash etc).
As a corollary to that I suggest people do some research into Webpack 2. Much as I like rollup's simplicity, Webpack 2 looks like it's here to stay and now that it supports tree shaking, it can replace rollup. It's worth understanding how it works even just because many tools assume the use of Webpack.

For example, Preact, which in many cases can be a drop-in replacement for React at a fraction of the size, gives instructions on how to use it with webpack (to alias react and react-dom), but not Rollup.

The Webpack 2 guides are not great, but much better than what came before, and I'm sure many blog posts will continue be written on the subject. And ultimately it's not really that difficult to get at least a decent grasp of its concepts, and it pays off in the end.

Will that integrate into the car electronics, and be able to run e.g. the satnav UI if that is included in the previous one?
A little off topic, I've extensively used the secure shell plugin for chrome and I find it a very good experience compared to putty. The only minor issues I hit were:

- Some keyboard combinations will be intercepted by the browser before going to the plugin (big one was ctrl-w which I used in vim a lot). The fix for this is to run the extension in it's own window; you can do this by right clicking the extension on chrome://apps and selecting "Open as window".

- It doesn't handle mixed width fonts very well and they jumble up the screen a little. This came up for me when using powerline. I couldn't find a fix for this at the time.

Hope that info is useful!

I mean, there's plenty of add-ons to make Firefox's UI slimmer. Including a setting won't do much else than that.
Could you please state some examples of these real-world problems where "almost symmetry" would help?

Face/shape recognition comes to mind, where inexact graph matching would be useful, but are there any others?

I'm not trolling, just interested in graph matching in general as amateur. I have this feeling that there should be many more applications of these techniques, but amusingly, in practice there's always a more specialized, non matching algorithm used. (probably because of matching's algorithm complexity which doesn't scale for larger problems...)

I wonder how my old diesel (1998 Toyota Land Cruiser 1KZ-TE, 3.0l I4 TDi) would fare when compared to a modern diesel.

Obviously, it would soot orders of magnitude more - but I wouldn't be surprised if the NOx emissions were surprisingly low, seeing as efficiency was way down on Toyota's list of requirements; they just made a bigger fuel tank.

It was designed to just work(tm) - almost regardless of what happened to it. Gas mileage? Not as much.
For reference, most of the surveys listed by Wikipedia[0] (not including that one, for some reason), list Firefox at about 30% in that period. I assume that the stats in your link comes from visitors to their own site, which given the focus (web development) seems like it could easily be biased towards more technical users (and thus over-represent Firefox compared to wider surveys).

I'd recommend that people who like OpenTTD try out Simutrans[0] as well. It's far less polished, and many aspects of it are much worse, but it adds a few things that OpenTTD is missing (like flexible underground/elevated routes) and feels like a much better simulation, particularly of passenger transport.

After playing Simutrans, I find OpenTTD's passenger destination model kind of weak, as it seems to generate passengers to based on your network. Instead, Simutrans generates passenger journeys between populated locations at random, and then works out whether they can use your network to complete them. The resulting usage patterns feel much more realistic to me.

Unfortunately the development feels kind of fractured. It allows for different "paksets" which can change most aspects of the game, including the UI. But this seems to have lead to essentially half a dozen versions of the game which all have their own deficiencies. Additionally there's also an experimental version, but only one pakset really works with it.

lastpass is still $12 and on Android it is AMAZING. I just sign in with my finger and it will fill out all the passwords in apps. I got my first phone with a finger print reader (LG V20) and I was up and running signed in with every account in 1/4 of the time.

I still have my bank account memorized but other then that lastpass has been awesome for me for close to 5 years.
Because there's an extremely large difference in complexity and reliability.
The real reason people don't do it is because it's really hard to make a part of your CI workflow. If the organization wants to dedicate resources to this, great, but this isn't something the dev team is really equipped to do all by themselves.
When the UK was tinkering with National ID cards I was mostly horrified at the idea, but a tiny part of me was so relieved at the idea of not having to put my name and address on so many forms.

It's frustrating to me that a government agency will mail a form and the envelope has my name and address, and the cover letter will have my name and address, and the first bit of the form is a field asking me for my name and address.

And then when the UK was tinkering with a fantastically expensive and mostly failed NHS IT project I thought "Are they taking the IETF RFC approach of specifying what the data MUST and MUST NOT be, and then leaving implementation down to vendors?"

So if you come up with a set of RFC-like documents for identifying me to a service, with cryptographic protection, and permissions for the amount of data I want to reveal, and allowing for clean separation of alternate identities, on a suitably tiny USB device it might take off.
How dropbox, Google drive work technically?
I want to know how data synchronisation on different devices actually work? If i want to make project on it how should i approach it.
I have a 6 digit pin (8 digit admin pin) with 3 retries before the device wipes itself. The chances of an attacker cracking that are negligible - I'm more concerned about someone observing my typing (applies to passphrase as well) or actual physical attacks on the yubikey (stolen, decapped, ...) but I'm not the target demographic where such effort would be warranted (or at least I hope so). An attacker could backdoor my PC and intercept the passphrase dialog - but in that case he'd still need my yubikey which makes remote attacks impractical and makes me notice the theft. This is not the case with a passphrase on a secret key - a machine compromise may silently take everything without you ever noticing.
As I understand it, the Windows caching layer doesn't actually support asynchronous IO. Any asynchronous cached file IO runs on a small, fixed-size system-wide thread pool using blocking IO, and once that runs out all such operations block until completion. That's why Windows software generally uses its own thread pools for file IO.

No, Proxy fits better. To be a Facade, it would have to be implemented inside React to hide React internals.

Although many patterns boil down to wrappers around objects (Delegator, Proxy, Adapter, Facade, etc.), but that doesn't make them all the same, even though their UML diagrams may look almost the same. The difference is: On which side is the wrapper? Which interfaces does it provide? Which interfaces does it use? Those details depend heavily on which architectural problem you want so solve (and it should be one you actually have). The pattern then guides you through how exactly that wrapper should look like in that particular case.

Indeed, you CAN get to the common behavior by clicking an item further down on the context menu... or by pressing some unholy keyboard combination.

But to be frank, it's clunky and I'm simply not going to bother so long as Opera is being actively developed. If Opera did stop, or turned into Chinese malware or something, then I would probably just jump over to Firefox and use plugins for the most Opera-like experience possible. Because sync is a must-have (including desktop and mobile)... and we'll just have disagree on whether 99.8% of the browser market has made "incorrect" UX choices on how to open a link.

This reaction IS what I was talking about, and does seem at odds with Vivaldi's branding and marketing. The website slogans include, "It's your web. Surf it the way you want!", " A million ways to customize everything!", etc. But suggest letting users customize Vivaldi so that common new tab behavior is the default, and ancient Opera behavior is the one requiring extra clicks... and suddenly customization is bad, and the way people want to surf the web is objectively wrong.

Come ON. Figure out what the purpose of Vivaldi is, and proceed accordingly. If the purpose is to re-implement Opera 12 out of spite toward a former employer, then that's fine... but don't have the marketing revolve around customization. If the purpose really IS customization, then don't be so hostile or dismissive when users request customization options that depart from Opera 12.
Hm, according to wikipedia: "In April 2013, Johnson and Giles announced that Matter had been acquired by Medium, a new publishing platform established by Twitter founder Ev Williams"

Safari and Edge are closed-source, Google Chrome (not Chromium) is too, in some way.
Every security product needs to make trade-offs between confidentiality and availability. Addressing all "legitimate security (meaning confidentiality) concerns" results in the proverbial turned-off computer under a mountain with a Marine standing guard. Agilebits have chosen a trade-off which maximizes their users' availability while minimizing Agilebits' best assessment of their users' potential for unacceptable loss of confidentiality, in service of delivering the best product that they can.

Now, you may disagree with Agilebits' methods of assessing those qualities or the particular trade-off they're choosing to make here, but you can't claim "security" in the abstract to justify a change without articulating its costs and benefits in more-concrete terms.

You appear to enjoy insulting people more than offering solutions or attempting to understand that not everyone has the same goals and resources. That didn't contribute anything of value to the conversation.

Here's an exercise to try: write down the threat model for a few different people (average web user, developer on a big team, worker on a political campaign, etc.) and think about the risks and user experience of each proposed solution. Don't forget that the current most common way people are getting breached is from reusing passwords across sites.

Yeah, it's pretty intense to see these clusters in person. In our data centers, we have 40G optical interlinks per rack overhead, 100G spidering across the racks to different rooms and the main network room.

We're also behind the times in lots of our management. 80% of our servers are bare metal, with limited automation. But we also do "NOC in a box"... many of our use cases wouldn't cleanly work right using tech like docker and kubernetes.
