Why are they trying to delay his extradition to Sweden? That’s the best place for him. Good medical care, strictly compassionate care of prisoners. I can think of no other place I’d rather be incarcerated.
It has the advantage of being faster, with the disadvantage of being less dynamic. Existing rule lists will need to be slimmed down. That's not necessarily a bad thing, because all they ever do is grow without being pruned of old rules.

It seems to me people are upset because they read the title and misinterpreted it to me that adblocking as a whole is going away. But to be fair, even the article itself does a poor job of clarifying that.
Switch your DNS servers (I suggest 1.1.1.1). Chrome uses Google's DNS servers by default, they're probably just faster than whatever you're using.
Yeah, projects like this give me the heebie-jeebies, to be honest. NPAPI and XUL were discontinued for really good reasons. Some users say they still want them, but that's because (1) people hate change, even when it's good for them and (2) they don't really appreciate all the security baggage those old APIs were lugging around with them. Projects that assure those users that they can keep on trucking with their old plugins like there's no problem just encourage them to do dangerous things they really should not be doing.
If google moves forward with this we should all start randomly clicking on ads until advertisers start to realize that they're basically throwing their money away on advertising that doesn't work :) Let's hit 'em where it hurts.
The thing about the last five mass extinctions is they didn't involve a species so good at adapting the environment to serve its own needs that said species could colonize Mars.

Of those 5 mass extinctions, did any of them make Earth less habitable than Mars is today? I'm genuinely curious.
And this pops up on the same evening that Google chooses to roll out unblockable advertising in Android System App "Duo" in the form of an unsolicited video message from Virat Kohli, apparently the lead player on an Indian cricket team?

this article seemed to be pushing the narrative that cravings are basically a psychological / cultural phenomenon, but then seems to take a hard right turn into, "it's your gut microbiome, the dominant microbes that have survived in your gut can manipulate your moods and cravings via the vagus nerve, dopamine, and serotonin, so that they get more of what they need". This latter theory seems way more interesting if not quite ominous to me but I didn't quite understand where the article was trying to go with these two largely divergent theories. Is the chocolate craving due to a certain kind of bacteria we have in our guts? So chocolate cravings localized to the US, that doesn't mean it's strictly cultural if there is some microbial arrangement we are all getting due to some other dietary phenomenon that's present in the US, some agricultural or industrial process, some kind of ingredient, if it's just about what kind of microbes becomes dominant that leaves it pretty open-ended for a whole lot to be possible. In any case it's less offensive than the bullshitty sounding "it's women's menstruation and their feelings of not being guilty for eating sweets during that time!" theories. I'm male and I crave chocolate like mad.

I found the percentages of "people who say they are financially OK" in this article interesting, given the relatively high percentage of US citizens who live at or below the poverty line. I believe the percentages they cite are inconsistent with known levels of poverty in our country; it would be good to know what subsets they surveyed

Just so you don't feel crazy, I've had this happen multiple times as well (on both Linux and Windows).

In fact, it's one of the larger reasons (tabs constantly crashing is the largest one atm) I leave Firefox for side jobs instead of being relied upon as my main browser.
Yes you better watch out! Step in dog poop right before entering an Uber and not noticing could get you a negative rating. I hope you don’t have any medical issues which may cause you to have an odor that may cause a negative rating. Or someone hacks your account and you get blacklisted from the ride service. This seems all to balck mirror
Do you have an example of that that simple search bar could look like?
Mozilla get a lot of money from Google. They're not totally independent.
My impression is that most criticism (certainly the criticism I've found valid and troubling) has been focused on whether Go is community driven, or controlled by a small team of core developers who just happen to currently work for Google.

Certainly there is some criticism than seems to focus on the idea that Go is controlled by Google, but I feel like that's, at most, a vocal minority. Then again, perhaps I just discount it because I find it pretty silly!

> Put differently: if Russ Cox resigned from Google, I imagine he'd probably remain involved with Go and have the same amount of influence.

I agree 100%.

(Of course, if your concern is how Russ Cox is managing Go, that probably doesn't make you feel better. If your concern is how Sundar Pichai is managing Go...well, I think we can both agree that's not a real issue.)
I am interested in programming languages (and especially module systems), and Go is a neat case. Plus, I've been following the antics of the ex-Bell Labs team for years.
I believe this is within the same Private Browsing session, so if you're closing the window (default behavior with the last tab I think) you may not be seeing it.

I should have been clearer, I meant general speed. The trains on traditional elevated tracks in Chicago are all pretty slow, and I think the solidity of the tracks is part of that. In comparison, the same trains on solid ground (e.g., the Blue line) run much faster.

Right. Things only become arbitrary cheap because there is a practically infinite supply of them.
For a good while, and possibly still, Domino's Pizza stores were graded on a yes/no "would recommend" (iirc).
The article says that current ad blocking extensions stops the request from even being made to the ad server, while the new version of Chrome will remove the ability for a plug in to stop a web request.

Seems like a pretty major change to me.
“Grading...There are four requirements:”

And then it lists five requirements...do I get the MIT course description equivalent of a Knuth check now?
So? With one on one to one on three tuition you can get the average child to the 95th percentile for their age group. That’s the Bloom Two Sigma effect[1]. Tutoring is extremely effective when it comes to teaching but it’s not cost effective. With classes finely graded enough by ability and prior knowledge you can get reasonably close to that with much larger numbers of students, or you can just call it Mastery learning[2]. That’s possible without picking winners. It’s not possible in public schools for institutional and historical reasons but we’re talking about education, not public schools.

He annoys me a lot, too. His positions on human health, and human progress, are fundamentally flawed. The article talks about a common analytical mistake in many of his arguments. But in virtually everything I (try to) read by him, I find so many that I just give up.
Note that charitable donations (of the 501(c)(3) variety) in the U.S. can only be employed for a very specific whitelist of purposes, and software development and marketing are not among those (the Mozilla Foundation uses donations to fund things like education programs instead). If you're a software developer who's interested in the health of Firefox specifically, consider instead donating your time by volunteering (not limited merely to Mozilla or Firefox; there are dozens of open-source projects whose development directly or indirectly ends up benefiting Firefox).

I suppose the difference is that in Firefox you have to opt out of it, and in Waterfox you opt in (?). The default makes a difference, since most users don't know about it.
I certainly know what you mean about "big family" (have 11 so far) and "just how much effort they volunteered of themselves" and "risking putting their kids back into school and losing a year or two in grades" due to uneven progress.

The out is dual-enrollment, sometimes called running start or concurrent enrollment. In many locations it is free, leading to an AA degree. Because it is scheduled in the style of normal college, with classes chosen as you please, uneven progress is not a problem.

Consider also that the students bear some responsibility and can easily have disasters in public school. If the students choose to dig their heels in, refusing to study, that simply shuts down any kind of education. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink. Be careful about assuming your parents did worse than a public school would have done, even if things went badly. Some kids just refuse to learn.
A tidally locked core would rotate once every 1.3 days, would it not?

[edit: Never mind. I think. Apparently it's rotation of two layers of core relative to each other that generates the field. However... since the plant is so close to its star, what would the effects be of a core rotating in a strong stellar field?]

Ray marching isn't baked at all, it's a webgl canvas. It's a real time effect. If you resize it the resolution changes and you re-render. The shapes that are used as a source for the rendering are all mathematical objects that can be combined and used at any scale, just like paths and curves in an SVG. The only time it would be "baked" is if you're exporting it out of the browser.

> This distinction is very much practical and not academic. SVG exists for a reason. I use (and write) SVG renderers in practice precisely for their resolution-independent, rasterize-on-demand functionality.

I wrote an SVG renderer: https://github.com/fathat/glsvg

> I was thinking specifically of the case where I render files in Zdog and save them for display & print later.

If you lose the interactive 3d component, Z-Dog doesn't really give you anything over just drawing it in a vector art program. Actually it gives you less, because you have less control and you have to type out your shapes instead of just drawing them. And it's not like it's easy to export out of the browser. In chrome at least, if it renders to a canvas and you right click on the element to save it you get a png, and if it renders into an SVG you get the option to save the entire web page.

Anyway all I was suggesting is that if you want a similar rendering effect (IE, 3D objects without triangulation) and z-fighting is an issue for you then you can consider signed depth fields. That's all. If z-dog works for your purposes use it instead.
no, I want my list as long as possible. thank you.

I thought that the single image was a series of links to the different parts of the courses. It's at the top of the page and has 9 distinct icons representing different things that will be taught. It looks a lot like it's there for navigation. When clicking on each of them didn't work, I assumed I couldn't get to the course content.
This is concerning; do you have any reference or sources?

Microsoft and Apple may choose to have smaller teams. They also only have to make each release of their browser work on their latest OS release, and they don't release to multiple OS's (Native Chrome is maintained for multiple versions of Android, ChromeOS, Linux, Windows, macOS).

And the myth(?) that smaller teams are more productive!

Apple and Microsoft are both outrageously rich companies: if they choose not to compete, why should we knock Google?
"Reading or entering these recipes would have been nearly impossible for the average intended user, since the user interface required the user to complete a two-week course just to learn how to program the device, using only toggle-switch input and binary-light output.

Well at least I could use the cutting board...

We're taking about streaming services (Netflix specifically). The accurate comparison is that Apple Music, Google Play Music, Spotify, etc. all DRM their services.
Since they're keeping the API around for enterprise versions I'd expect them to leave it in Chromium and just have it be disabled by default.

If you find any asteroid with a sufficient magnesium hydride (or any other useful substances that could help you terraform Venus), then changing its orbit so it goes and collides with Venus could be orders of magnitude simpler than building a space colony.

In the asteroid belt there are some so-called Kirkwood gaps [1]. The main one is at 2.5 AU from the Sun; an asteroid orbiting at that distance is in a certain resonance with Jupiter (and with the Earth too) that makes the orbit unstable (on large time scales). The orbit becomes more and more eccentric, until it crosses Mars's orbit, and in time it gets close to Mars and gets sling-shot somewhere. There is a good chance you can nudge an asteroid close to this or another Kirkwood gap, and do it in such a way as to obtain the exact Mars slingshot that the asteroid ends up crashing into Venus. How can you nudge an asteroid? By ablation, e.g. [2]. You can use either a large parabolic mirror that orbits the asteroid, or a powerful laser. What timescales are we talking about? Asteroids in the Alinda group [3] have an orbital period of 4 years; if we manage to perturb one's orbit and execute the Martian slingshot in 10 periods, that's roughly half a century, which is in line with the mission length of Voyager.

They mean Chrome extensions installed via gsuite - Google's enterprise management system. Ie - you can have managed Chromebooks and force install extensions. A lot of school's use it for web filtering.
My point wasn't that docker exec is vulnerable, it's that you were to write a script like:

% docker exec ctr tar cf - some/path | tar xf -

it would be vulnerable to attack, because the container process could ptrace(2) the tar process and then change its output to cause the host-side tar to start overwriting host files.

My point is that you have to be careful if you're designing a system where the security depends on running a process inside the container and trusting its output -- ideally you wouldn't run any process inside the container at all so that an attacking process can have no impact on it. And that's true even if we assume that the "tar" is not a binary that the container has direct control of.

This concern also applies if you aren't using tar and are instead using some other technique. Hell, even if you don't have an IPC system you could still probably attack a process that is just trying to do a single open(2) call -- you just need to make it pass a different fd.

Arcteryx has phenomenal customer service as well. They mailed me a new jacket in the middle of trip (picked it up at a Chilean post office as we moved to a new mountain), and let me mail the original leaking one back a month later.
We have that already! Except it goes the other way; using non-Chrome on Google properties gives you a slightly worse experience. YouTube on Firefox desktop is still terrible.
Sure it seems closer now than before, but reaching Mars is still very very far, it's nothing like going down the road to the chemist, for example let's say that we want to pursue the current population growth but on Mars, that's an estimated 82 million new people per year (130 million if you count only births), using the Starship SpaceX is currently developing that would take 820000 launches per year or 2250 per day.

But those ships are not like planes, you can't reuse them multiple times a day, the trip to Mars takes something like 6 months, and that's a launch window that opens only once every 2 years, the rest of the time it takes longer and more propellant, so your ships would make the round trip in 1 or 2 years, so you'd need to build 820k to 1.6 million ships only to be able to shuttle the population to Mars and stay constant on Earth.

That would be a serious industrial investment. A quick search says that there are around 24000 planes in service in the world, and over the course of history, 150000 planes have been built, including all military and commercial aircraft. So we'd need to build a production with many many times more capacity that all the airplane builder that exist today.

Then there is the energy cost of those ships, Earth gravity well is actually pretty deep and chemical propulsion only just is able to escape it. That many launches is going to need a lot of energy, a rocket can hold up to 500 tons of fuel, multiplied by several thousands of launches per day, and you reach a non-negligible percentage of the current daily worldwide energy expenditure.

The idea of being able to mine asteroids or outsource production in a meaningful way on another planet is similarly unrealistic, escaping gravity is not easy. Of course the technology will improve, but not by the several orders of magnitude that would be needed. When we colonize space, it is likely that it will be more like seeds, with only relatively minimal exchanges when the scale reaches a whole planet.
That's not the place to target such a change, if anyone's to do it.

If there's the support of a major maintainer of a popular library, merging changes which incrementally incur larger performance penalties in Blink may be more effective.

If there's no support from a major maintainer, then simply writing contributions which are largely tested in firefox for performance but are tested in Blink for mere functionality should succeed over time in inducing the same.

In the end, the libraries are lock-in for larger SaaS providers far more than they might be aware, and if such changes start making it into e.g. React, there's not all that much that many product teams can do to work around it other than replying via support channels that Firefox seems to take less of a performance penalty.

That's the black hat in me talking. Resuming white hat status now.
